Corvette Racing is an American
auto racing team established in 1999 by
General Motors and
Pratt Miller for the purposes of competing in
sports car racing internationally. Corvette Racing was originally the official racing program for General Motors and their
Chevrolet Corvette production car until the end of the
LM GTE class in 2023, having utilized four generations of the Corvette to develop racing cars, although racing programs involving the Corvette have been endorsed by General Motors to varying degrees since 1956.
[1] The team is known for its yellow livery and several class wins at the 24 Hours of Le Man.
[2]
Corvette Racing closed out its direct factory operation at the end of 2023, as
General Motors will solely focus on customer teams with the new
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R . Beginning in 2024, Pratt Miller will continue the racing team under the name Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports for the
IMSA SportsCar Championship , and
TF Sport will be supported by Corvette Racing for the
FIA World Endurance Championship , both with limited GM factory support.

Corvette Racing has had multiple successes across multiple championships, including one championship in the
FIA World Endurance Championship , five championships in the
IMSA SportsCar Championship , and ten championships in the
American Le Mans Series , as well as nine victories at the
24 Hours of Le Mans , four victories at the
24 Hours of Daytona , and 12 victories at the
12 Hours of Sebring .
