Stevens, Nato join Cadillac WTR for Petit Le Mans

Cadillac Wayne Taylor Racing has confirmed that Will Stevens and Norman Nato will bolster its driver line-up for October’s Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.

Both drivers are current Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA teammates in the FIA World Endurance Championship and will contest the IMSA season finale as Cadillac looks to defend its 2024 victory at the race.

Stevens will return to the No. 10 Cadillac V-Series.R alongside Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque, having previously completed the car’s roster at both the Rolex 24 at Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring earlier this year. The Brit will be making his Road Atlanta debut.

Nato, meanwhile, will make his first appearance with Wayne Taylor Racing, joining Jordan Taylor and Louis Delétraz in the No. 40 Cadillac. The Frenchman last raced at Petit Le Mans in 2018, finishing 11th with Tequila Patron ESM in a Nissan Onroak DPi.

The duo are fresh from claiming the victory at last month’s FIA WEC 6 Hours of São Paulo in the No. 12 Cadillac V-Series.R, which they share with Alex Lynn.

“Delighted to have Will back on board and to welcome Norman to our team for Petit Le Mans,” said team owner Wayne Taylor. “As Cadillac factory drivers, they will both be a great addition to our effort at Petit.”

Cadillac WTR will take part in a two-day Road Atlanta test on 2–3 September, with Stevens and Nato present to prepare for the 10-hour enduro.

“I’m really looking forward to Petit Le Mans,” said Stevens. “It’s my first time at Road Atlanta, so the test will be vital to get to grips with the track and work with the team on our Cadillac V-Series.R.”

Nato added: “It’s such an honor to drive for such an iconic team. I enjoyed Petit back in 2018 — it’s a very challenging track — and the goal will be to finish on top. I know the car well from WEC, so my focus will be adapting quickly to the team and delivering strong pace.”
