MINI USA will continue its partnership with Indianapolis-based LAP Motorsports and will sponsor a vehicle in the Touring Car A Class of the 2019 TC America, which kicks off at Circuit of the Americas on 1 March 2019 just outside of Austin, Texas.
Most recently, the MINI JCW Team took home the 2018 Manufacturer's Championship in the Street Tuner class of the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge Series, beating the likes of BMW, Porsche and Mazda.
"As we enter into our fifth year partnering with Luis Perocarpi and LAP Motorsports, we're thrilled to take the MINI JCW team into TC America for 2019," said Patrick McKenna, Department Head, MINI Product Planning and Consumer Events. "Given the incredibly hard work and success the team has achieved over the last few years, John Cooper can rest easy knowing his namesake racing team continues to exemplify the racing spirit he started almost 60 years ago."
