After announcing in November plans to sit out the 2025 season of the FIA World Endurance Championship, Lamborghini has now revealed it will run a limited program in the 2025 season of the IMSA SportsCar Championship.
In a statement released on December 24, Lamborghini announced that it would include a single factory-backed SC63 LMDh race car in the main GTP category of the SportsCar Championship, but only in the Michelin Endurance Cup.

Confirmed drivers for the SC63 in 2025 include Mirko Bortolotti, Romain Grosjean, Daniil Kvyat, and Edoardo Mortara. Lamborghini said the drivers for each race will be announced on a race-by-race basis.
