Already announced for TF Sport’s LMGT3 effort in FIA WEC, Andrade now adds ELMS to his program, reinforcing his presence on the global endurance racing stage.
The Angolan driver will team up with Charlie Eastwood and Hiroshi Koizumi as TF Sport embarks on its maiden ELMS season with the Corvette Z06 GT3.R. The six-round championship features a return of the 4 Hours of Silverstone, marking Andrade’s sports car debut at the legendary British circuit.
With a demanding 14-race calendar across both championships, 2025 is shaping up to be a defining year for Andrade as he continues to showcase Angola’s colours on the world stage.
Rui Andrade:
“I’m very excited to be back in ELMS and to race at some of Europe’s most iconic tracks in the Corvette. It’s a new challenge for the whole team, but with their experience and knowledge, I have no doubt we’ll have a great season together. We have a strong lineup – I know Charlie well and am looking forward to working with Hiroshi. Can’t wait to get started!”
