Just over a year ago, Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti assigned the new team member to buy a vacuum cleaner for the motor home. Fast forward to Saturday night, the team celebrated their first victory in the modern GTP era at the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, claiming their first Sebring win since 2017 and the first Twelve Hours win for the Acura brand. Louis Deletraz’s heroic driving in the closing stint clinched the victory, with Jordan Taylor praising his teammate’s efforts in securing the Sebring triumph. Deletraz, a successful sports car racer with titles in ELMS and WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, has joined forces with Ricky Taylor and Filipe Albuquerque for the 2023 season in the No. 10 Acura. In a thrilling battle towards the end of the race, Deletraz made a daring move to overtake Sebastien Bourdais in a Cadillac V-Series, thanks to fresher tires and strategic driving tactics. Despite some intense moments on the track, both drivers managed to finish the race, with Deletraz expressing his joy and relief at securing the well-deserved victory at Sebring that he will cherish for a long time.
