Hawksworth, a race-winner in the IMSA SportsCar Championship's GTD Pro class for the factory Vasser Sullivan Lexus squad, will pair up with fellow IMSA racer Tristan Vautier and bronze-rated gentleman driver Fred Poordad in an ORECA-Gibson 07 entered in the LMP2 Pro-am subclass.
It marks ex-IndyCar racer Hawksworth's first foray into European racing since a partial campaign in the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup with Tech 1 Racing in 2019, and his first in a prototype since the 2016 Daytona 24 Hours.
