After wrapping up both the 2025 European Le Mans Series and the 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship seasons, TF Sport is ready to take on another exciting challenge. The team is preparing for the 2025/2026 season of the Asian Le Mans Series, the championship that brings together the best of the world of endurance racing on some of Asia's most prestigious and iconic circuits.

TF Sport will field two Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs. The full line-up for Racing Team Turkey's #34 Corvette was revealed a few weeks ago, with Tom Van Rompuy, Salih Yoluç and Charlie Eastwood set to share duties at the wheel of a mighty red Vette. All three drivers are familiar faces to the team: Tom Van Rompuy and Charlie Eastwood were teammates in the #81 Z06 GT3.R that fought for both titles until the last race of the 2025 FIA WEC, while Salih Yoluç made his debut with the team in 2015, winning the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup in the Pro -Am class in 2019 and the European Le Mans Series in the LMP2 Pro-Am category in 2022.

There was still one vacancy in the line-up for the #11 Corvette Z06 GT3.R, but that empty space has been filled with a prestigious name. Alongside Blake McDonald (Bronze) and Matthew Bell (Gold), James Roe (Silver) will complete the crew of a car ready to fight for victory alongside its twin. McDonald (USA) and Bell (UK) shared duties in the 2025 GT World Challenge America season and are ready to welcome the Irishman as their teammate for what is sure to be an exciting campaign. Roe, born in 1998 in Naas, already has a wealth of experience despite his young age, having raced in Formula and GT3 cars as well as prototypes. In 2025, he raced in both the Indianapolis and Road Atlanta rounds of the IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship, competed in the Firestone Indy NXT Series and ended his season with his first test in the NTT IndyCar Series. All three drivers are fast, skilled and talented, and their contribution to the team will enable TF Sport to fight for victory in the 2025/2026 Asian Le Mans Series.

The battle will begin on the weekend of 13-14 December 2025, when TF Sport will hit the track at the Sepang International Circuit for the first double-header of the championship. Next, on January 31 and February 1, the races will be held at the Dubai Autodrome and lastly, on the weekend of February 7 and 8, the final two rounds of the 2025/2026 Asian Le Mans Series will take place at the Yas Marina Circuit.

BLAKE MCDONALD, #11 TF SPORT BRONZE DRIVER: “I am thrilled to officially join TF Sport for the 2025/2026 Asian Le Mans Series, driving alongside Matt Bell and James Roe. TF Sport has an incredible history at the highest level of endurance racing, and being part of it represents a huge step forward in my career”

JAMES ROE, #11 TF SPORT SILVER DRIVER: “I’m really excited to join TF Sport for this season's Asian Le Mans Series! It's a championship I've always followed with interest and I really like how it fits into the racing calendar. I'm ready to get into that Corvette and work with the TF team!”

MATTHEW BELL, #11 TF SPORT GOLD DRIVER: “I am very excited to be part of the TF Sport team in the Asian Le Mans Series. TF Sport had an incredible 2025 season, and Blake, James and I can't wait to continue on this path of success. The last time I drove for TF was in 2015, when we won the last race of the year, so I hope to repeat that feat ten years on!”
