As the first of the daffodils begin to peek through at the Motor Circuit, Goodwood today announces that Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA will bring its 2025 World Endurance Championship (WEC) car to the 82nd Members' Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport.
One of the team's two Cadillac V-Series.R LMDh cars will complete a number of high-speed demonstration laps, marking the first time that a current WEC Hypercar has run at the Goodwood Motor Circuit. Goodwood Road Racing Club Members and their guests are in for an audible treat as Will Stevens and Alex Lynn take on the fast-flowing circuit over both days of the event.
The 82nd Members' Meeting will also be the first time that Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA's 2025 Hypercar will be seen in Europe, following the first race of the season in Qatar in February. 2025 is a year of new beginnings for JOTA Sport – the number one British team competing in WEC – as it partners with American manufacturing giant, Cadillac.
This year, JOTA Sport is also celebrating its 25th anniversary, as well as 20 years of competing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In honour of the occasion, the team is sending some of its most notable cars to the Silverstone Museum, but they will first make a pit stop at the 82nd Members' Meeting where they will be on display in the paddocks. The line-up is set to include Le Mans class winners, as well as one of the Hertz Team Jota Porsche 963 LMDhs which competed at La Sarthe in 2024 with the teams of Jenson Button, Phil Hanson and Oliver Rasmussen and Callum Ilott, Norman Nato and Will Stevens taking turns behind the wheel.
David Clark, Co-Founder & Director Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA: 'I have such affection for Goodwood and a strong personal history there so it's always a special joy for me when JOTA does anything at Goodwood. This year is such a special one for the entire team at JOTA Group, not just the race team but also our amazing people at JOTA Composites and JOTA Engineering. Having our Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA V-Series.R LMDh make its premiere on UK soil at such an iconic location, in front of what will be a brilliant crowd, is an enormous honour and I have no doubt that it will be one of the highlights of our 25th anniversary celebration'.
The Duke of Richmond CBE DL, said: 'We have a lot of fun at the Members' Meeting, showcasing the breadth of motorsport. I'm delighted that our guests will see the Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA V-Series.R LMDh in action – the first time a current car from the highest level of sportscar racing will have lapped the Motor Circuit since it closed in the sixties.'
The Cadillac Hertz Team JOTA demonstration joins the previously announced GT3 Shoot-Out and all-sustainable fuel race list including the new Win Percy Trophy.
