Temerario GT3 Wins First IMSA Endurance Race at Road America

Pfaff Motorsports drove the in-house Lamborghini from eighth on the grid to victory in just five months of competition.

Factory drivers Andrea Caldarelli and Sandy Mitchell piloted the #9 Pfaff Motorsports entry from eighth on the GTD Pro grid to the top step at the six hours of Road America on August 3, combining clean driving, sharp strategy, and improved race pace to build a lead that survived a race-ending full course yellow.

Lamborghini's first fully in-house GT3 car, tested against larger factory programs

Squadra Corse operates as a comparatively small group relative to the factory racing operations at Porsche, Ferrari, and Mercedes-AMG, and the Temerario GT3 is the first GT3 race car entirely designed, developed, and produced in-house by Lamborghini rather than with an external partner.

Caldarelli and Mitchell cap a five-month climb from Sebring debut to Road America victory

The Temerario GT3 debuted at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March, earned its first outright podium in Detroit, claimed a maiden DTM victory with Mirko Bortolotti and Team TGI by GRT, and on the same day as the Road America triumph, Rutronik Racing secured Lamborghini's first overall podium in GT World Challenge Europe at Magny-Cours.

A setup gamble and an improved brake package turned an eighth-place start into a winning margin

The team gambled on setup after a challenging qualifying session, climbed to third within 90 minutes, and benefited from an improved brake package ahead of Road America that allowed consistent performance over six hours, compounding pace gains across hundreds of laps.

The Temerario GT3 across series: building Lamborghini's racing ecosystem

Lamborghini now fields a current-generation GT3 car against the latest from Porsche, Ferrari, and Mercedes-AMG, and with the Temerario Super Trofeo customer one-make variant expected to arrive in 2027, the brand is building a complete in-house racing ecosystem around the Temerario platform.
