The No. 60 yellow-liveried car will be piloted by Bronze-rated Claudio Schiavoni and Matteo Cressoni, who enter their fifth consecutive WEC season together, alongside former Lamborghini factory driver Matteo Cairoli.

The No. 61 black-liveried entry features a diverse lineup consisting of veteran Christian Ried, Mercedes-AMG performance driver Maxime Martin, and Formula 4 graduate Lin Hodenius. Notably, Ried will compete against his own Proton Competition team in the LMGT3 class.

The new livery designs blend elements from both Iron Lynx and Mercedes-AMG's racing heritage, incorporating their historical colors and celebrating past achievements.

Team Principal and CEO Andrea Piccini expressed satisfaction with the driver combinations, highlighting the mix of experience and fresh talent. He particularly praised rookie Lin Hodenius's impressive testing performance and emphasized Maxime Martin's valuable endurance racing expertise.

The program marks Mercedes-AMG's first official entry into the FIA WEC's LMGT3 category, representing a significant milestone for both the manufacturer and Iron Lynx team.
