Adelson and Skeer Back for Second Season in No. 120 Porsche in GTD Class
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Wright Motorsports announced the return of Adam Adelson and Elliott Skeer as full-time drivers of the No. 120 Porsche 911 GT3 R in the 2025 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season. They will be joined by Tom Sargent and Ayhancan Guven in the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup races.
“It’s a pleasure to have Adam and Elliott back for another season,” said team owner John Wright. “Their growth during their first IMSA WeatherTech season was remarkable, and they brought a great deal of energy to the team. Their victory at Indianapolis Motor Speedway proved they have what it takes to excel in this highly competitive class, and we’re excited to build on that success in 2025.”
Adelson and Skeer showcased undeniable chemistry in their 2024 campaign, earning their first Grand Touring Daytona (GTD) podium at the grueling Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Presented by Cadillac. They followed it with another third-place finish at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca before clinching their maiden victory at the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Despite missing one race, the No. 120 Porsche finished 10th in the GTD final standings.
Joining Adelson and Skeer for the Michelin Endurance Cup events, Sargent brings a wealth of talent and a proven track record. The Australian driver progressed through karting and Formula Ford before entering North American sports car racing. A race winner in the Porsche Carrera Cup North America and the 2024 Fanatec GT World Challenge America series, Sargent will bolster the team’s efforts in endurance competition.
Rounding out the roster, Guven will join the lineup for the Rolex 24 At Daytona. The 26-year-old Turkish driver began his motorsport journey in karting before transitioning to sim racing and earning a place as a Porsche Junior driver in 2019. Guven holds multiple titles, including championships in the Porsche Carrera Cup France, Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge Benelux and the Asian Le Mans Series. The Rolex 24 will mark his WeatherTech Championship debut.
Adam Adelson: “Coming into Daytona this year for the second time is a totally different feeling. Last year, we had no idea what to expect during the IMSA season, but we quickly found that the preparation we did was paying off. This year, we actually know what to expect and can rely on that experience to try and bring home even better results. Aside from that, I’m beyond excited to be racing with Tom and Ayancan, who are both exceptional talents. We may have one of the youngest driver lineups in the field, but with that comes plenty of motivation and hunger for success on track.”
Elliott Skeer: “I’m thrilled to be back racing with Adam again and building on the incredible chemistry we’ve developed on and off the track. This season, we’re ready to give it a proper championship fight and push ourselves to a new level. I’m equally excited to welcome Tom to the team and help him get up to speed in IMSA. Ayhancan is a fantastic pick for the lineup, and his experience in the car will be a huge asset for Daytona. Together, we’re poised for an amazing year, and I can’t wait to see what we can accomplish!”
Tom Sargent: “To say I am excited to be driving in the No. 120 Wright Motorsports Porsche in the IMSA WeatherTech series is an understatement. Making my IMSA debut, and with such a well-established and successful team, is my dream start to this championship. To be able to partner with Adam and Elliot for the endurance rounds, and for them to put their confidence in me to do my side of the job is extremely encouraging for the work I have put in to get here.”
Ayhancan Guven: “I’m excited to join Wright Motorsports for my Rolex 24 At Daytona debut. It’s the best way to start the new motorsport year. With the team and lineup, we have, we should definitely aim for the class win. I can’t wait to meet and work together with the crew towards a successful weekend.”
