Porsche ace Cairoli in line for Lamborghini LMDh drive in IMSA
Italian driver Matteo Cairoli, who is currently contracted by Porsche but does not have factory driver status, is being considered for one of the remaining seats in Lamborghini’s LMDh program for the 2024 endurance racing season. Cairoli recently tested the under-development Lamborghini SC63 LMDh car at Jerez and expressed his enjoyment of the test but did not provide further details. He mentioned that his racing program for 2024 will be based in the US, indicating a potential move from the World Endurance Championship to IMSA. The new Lamborghini LMDh car will debut in the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup in March 2024. Cairoli, who has raced predominantly with Porsche throughout his career, strongly hinted at leaving the manufacturer, potentially paving the way for a factory role with Lamborghini next year. Cairoli feels ready to transition to prototype machinery after racing in GT cars for an extended period and believes it is the right upgrade for his career.
