Lone Star Racing Leaves Sebring Motivated for Final IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup Rounds

Cut Tire 44 Minutes From the Finish Doesn’t Take Away From Top Team and Driver Performance in No. 80 Lone Star Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3 with Dan Knox, Scott Andrews and Eric Filgueiras at the 73rd Running of The 12 Hours of Sebring

SEBRING, Florida (March 21, 2025) – “Deflated” but not down, the No. 80 Lone Star Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3 team and co-drivers Dan Knox, Scott Andrews and Eric Filgueiras left the 12 Hours of Sebring last Saturday motivated for the final three rounds of the 2025 IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup (IMEC) at Watkins Glen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) and Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta (MRRA). The team and drivers turned in one of their best races since entering the IMEC GT Daytona (GTD) championship last year and missed out on a likely top-five or better finish only because the No. 80 Mercedes-AMG GT3 suffered a cut tire with just 44 minutes remaining in the 73rd running of America’s oldest major sports car race.

First To The Finish: Docuseries Follows 3 Women Taking On The MX-5 Cup

By Jenn Nelson, Forbes

Motorsports is one of the toughest sports to break into. It’s expensive, demanding, and requires unwavering dedication. From the cost of racing cars, tires, and fuel to training, track access, and travel, the financial barrier is huge. On top of that, sponsorships are hard to secure, and for women, the road has been even tougher—fewer opportunities, less funding, and not enough role models have made it harder to reach the highest levels.
