Sean Creech Motorsport driver Lance Willsey has decided to step away from racing, leading to the team’s decision to forgo the penultimate round of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season, the TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Willsey, who earns his living as a doctor, has been with the team since 2019, starting in IMSA Prototype Challenge. Following his decision, the team will regroup and seek options for other drivers to step into the No. 33 Ligier JS P217 LMP2 machine for Petit Le Mans in October. Team principal Sean Creech says he remains committed to SCM and its team members, exploring opportunities in the LMP2 category and engaging with potential drivers and sponsors for the future. Despite the team’s achievements in various sports car series, including multiple championships, SCM’s move to LMP2 this season has not yet yielded a podium finish, with the best result being fourth place at Sebring, showing determination and promise in a competitive field.
