Risi Competizione Looks To Defend GTD PRO Endurance Title

HOUSTON — Risi Competizione will contest the full IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup in the GTD Pro class this season.

As winners of the 2022 IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup in GTD Pro class with last year’s Ferrari 488 GT3 car, the team will compete in their new Ferrari 296 GT3, set for its debut at the Rolex 24 At Daytona, January 28-29.
