If there was a word Andrea Caldarelli wanted to use to describe the Fanatec GT World Challenge America Powered by AWS season-opener at Sonoma Raceway, he hoped it was going to be “fun.” Caldarelli, who longs for the fierce battles that the series offers, got what he asked for – a highly heated finale, where he helped the team chase down a sweep of the first two rounds.

Nestled deep in the rolling hills of the Northern California countryside is home. Sonoma Raceway has been the site and stardom for a lot of K-PAX Racing triumphs over the years, and while the scenic hillside casts a shadow over the course, the team continues to reach new heights toward an even brighter future. The team experienced just that during the opening round of the 2022 Fanatec GT World Challenge America Powered by AWS season, as it stood tall on the top step of the podium – victorious.

Often times when K-PAX Racing loads into the Sonoma Raceway paddock, its homebase provides a sense of comfort and familiarity. But in 2021, it was less calm. It was less familiar. The team was still finding its footing in its budding partnership with Lamborghini Squadra Corse and its Huracán GT3 EVO. Nevertheless, K-PAX Racing dug in its heels and jumped to the top of the Fanatec GT World Challenge America Powered by AWS standings that weekend – an early, virtually instant sign of success to its eventual championship-winning campaign.

A highly decorated history precedes the K-PAX Racing brand, which has touched the hearts of fans worldwide, as well as wreaked havoc for competitors at a variety of GT racing’s most marquee international circuits. The team, in its sophomore season with Lamborghini Squadra Corse, will have the opportunity to not only expand even further, but also defend its title stateside.

TR3 Performance steps up to the Pro class for the first time this season as the Fanatec GT World Challenge America powered by AWS returns to historic Sebring International Raceway for the final doubleheader weekend of the campaign.
