Pfaff Motorsports, a dominant force in IMSA’s WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, is edging closer to securing its future in the series. The Toronto-based team, known for clinching back-to-back championships in 2021 and 2022, had previously cast doubt on its return for the upcoming seasons. However, recent developments have sparked optimism, as the team confirms it has filed an entry for the 2025 season, which has already been accepted.
Pfaff, which competes with the iconic No. 9 McLaren 720S GT3, is in the midst of securing long-term stability within the series. As the 2024 season nears its conclusion and teams prepare for the short but intense offseason, Pfaff’s progress in negotiations has gained momentum.
“We’re engaged in encouraging conversations,” stated Pfaff team manager Steve Bortolotti. While the specifics of these discussions remain undisclosed, the team’s proactive approach signals a strong intent to continue building on its success and legacy within IMSA.
The acceptance of Pfaff’s 2025 entry is a major step in the right direction, demonstrating the team’s commitment to remaining competitive. The move also suggests that Pfaff is confident in securing the necessary support and resources to maintain its status as a leading contender in the GTD category.
As IMSA fans eagerly await the finalization of Pfaff’s plans, all eyes will be on the team’s offseason developments. If all goes well, the iconic plaid-liveried McLaren 720S GT3 will continue to be a familiar sight on the grid, pushing for more victories and championships in the seasons to come.
