MONZA, Italy – Rocky T. Bolduc ensured a Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America competitor showed up and showed out to secure a class championship at the Lamborghini World Finals, which brought together all three Lamborghini Super Trofeo regions (Asia, Europe, North America) at the iconic Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Bolduc recovered from a challenging pair of final races in the end of the regular season to claim the World Finals title in LB Cup.

Four total races capped off the week for North American competitors, split two apiece by class as Pro/ProAm and Am/LB Cup. It also was the final act for the single make Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 car before the Temerario Super Trofeo debuts in 2027 starting at Sebring International Raceway.

In total, North American competitors won two races and scored 10 podiums (three in Pro, one in ProAm, three in Am, three in LB Cup) across all World Finals races. TR3 Racing, XONINE Racing, Kaizen Autosport, Precision Performance Motorsports, 89X Motorsports, Topp Racing and Forty7 Motorsports all got at least one podium over the World Finals weekend.

Am/LB Cup

LB Cup

Race 1: One of Rocky T. Bolduc’s frequent mantras shared throughout his Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America career has been from his wife, where she notes, “What’s better than a setback is a comeback.” That statement couldn’t have been more appropriate as after a nightmare North America finale pair of races where Bolduc lost the LB Cup title through brake and driveshaft issues, he made a late-race comeback to win the World Final LB Cup opener in his No. 199 Topp Racing Huracán.

The father and son duo of Luciano and Donovan Privitelio in their No. 8 Rexal Villorba Corse Huracán led the majority of the race in LB Cup, but father Luciano had to hold on at the final restart. Bolduc made the pass on the front straight with two laps to go on the outside, then extended the gap in the final lap. Claude-Yves Gosselin passed Privitelio for second as well in his No. 4 Rexal Villorba Corse Huracán.

“We’ve had a rocky weekend, let me tell you!” Bolduc exclaimed in parc ferme. “I thought the second-to-last lap was the last one, so we drag raced to the line. The No. 8 car is so cool as a father/son team and congrats on their driving. With one more lap, I knew we had it. I was shaking inside and forgot to breathe the last 13 laps! I’ve got Corey (Lewis, coach), my wife and kids, my mom and dad all on board. Winning is the cherry on top.”

Race 2: American entries finished 1-2 here, with Bolduc claiming the World Final title as fellow North American competitor Christopher Koebbe claiming the class win in his No. 166 Forty7 Motorsports Huracán. Adalberto Baptista (No. 14 Oregon Team Huracán) completed the podium.

“What an amazing end to the world championship for 2026,” Bolduc said. “My wife says it best; what’s better than a setback is a comeback. P1 yesterday and P2 today makes us world champions. We can bring it home to America. We started P1 and had to hold it, I went second to third to fourth, but a Safety Car came after that. We got back to third and then after the yellow, we had one more lap to give it, and with the green flag, we gained one more position.”

Koebbe added after his win, “What an amazing race and great feeling to come out on top. Worked to climb up yesterday. Today had a cleaner start and had the best driving coach in the world, Buddy Rice, who said just keep driving.”

Am

Race 1: The Am battle saw Polish driver Andrzej Lewandowski in the No. 16 ASR Huracán lead the majority of the race from pole, although he deployed a late-race rally following the lone Safety Car intervention to ensure the victory. With a 1-second time penalty applied following a short pit stop under the mandated time, he needed to extend the gap north on the restart. He won on the road by 1.246 seconds, which became 0.246 of a second once the penalty was applied. Or so it appeared.

Following a thrilling battle, it appeared American Am class champion David Staab had finished second on the road in his No. 148 Precision Performance Motorsports Huracán following a late-race pass into the Parabolica of Jakub Knoll in his No. 46 Mičánek Motorsport PWD Buggyra Huracán. Post-checkered, stewards applied a 5-second time penalty to Staab for an earlier infraction, which dropped him to sixth. Knoll and Renaud Kuppens were promoted to second with Staab’s teammate Gabriel Holguin the beneficiary, up to third in his No. 145 PPM Huracán.

Race 2: Lewandowski doubled up in the No. 16 ASR Huracán to win both races and the World Final title at the same time, but it was a strong showing from the American entries behind him, with six North American cars second to seventh.

Staab recovered well to return to the podium in second in his No. 148 PPM Huracán, with Johan Schwartz and Mike Fitzpatrick third in their No. 189 89X Motorsports Huracán. Cooper Broll drove from the back of the 29-car field to fourth in his No. 147 PPM Huracán, followed by Nick Groat (No. 157 XONINE Racing Huracán), Dean Neuls (No. 170 TR3 Racing Huracán) and Anthony Bullock (No. 112 XONINE Racing Huracán).

Race 1: North American entries held the upper hand on their European and Asian counterparts in the first race of the combined Pro/ProAm World Final with four of the top six finishing positions. Past World Final champion Dennis Lind (2016 in Valencia) led the way in the No. 129 TR3 Huracán he shared with North America Pro champ Elias De La Torre. De La Torre opened a gap north of four seconds in the final laps to ensure the victory over Brendon Leitch and Nicholas Stati in their No. 70 Leipert Motorsport Huracán.

Will Bamber was third in the No. 133 XONINE Racing Huracán, aided by the return to the track of usual co-driver Darius Trinka for support. He held off a hard-charging Liam Sceats in the No. 206 VSR Huracán he shared with Gustaw Wisniewski, with the first two of three Pro class Wayne Taylor Racing Huracáns in fifth (Hampus Ericsson, Nick Persing, No. 101) and sixth (Danny Formal, Graham Doyle, No. 110).

“The last few laps are the hardest (to watch) when your teammate is taking it home,” Lind noted. “Elias was so quick towards the end. He was untouchable. We got one in the bank.”

De La Torre added, “I had a bit of a struggle myself in my qualifying, but Dennis put us out front where we need to be. I think we’re proving where we belong.”

Race 2: What looked like a potential World Final win for either of the North American championship contenders – De La Torre with Lind in the No. 129 TR3 entry and Bamber in the No. 133 XONINE entry – didn’t come to fruition. De La Torre was spun at the first chicane by another car, but Lind delivered a storming drive back to fifth overall from the back of the field. He ended two spots behind Bamber in third, and one behind another North American car in Colin Queen and Tommi Gore in fourth in their No. 104 ANSA Motorsports Huracán.

Taking advantage and making key moves to the lead was Leitch, who along with Stati claimed the Pro class race win and Pro World Final title in their No. 70 Leipert Huracán. Wisniewski and Sceats were second in their No. 206 VSR Huracán.

ProAm

Race 1: European ProAm champions Mičánek Motorsport PWD Buggyra carried on their form from the regional races earlier in the weekend, as Bronislav Formánek and Anthony Pretorius scored the first ProAm win in their No. 11 Huracán.

The drama occurred for the final podium spots. ProAm polesitter Kyle Marcelli led early in the No. 119 TB Autosports Huracán he shared with Mathieu Boucher, and the pair appeared poised to finish second. But late-race contact from another car saw Boucher pull off course, promoting North American counterparts Kaizen Autosport up to second with Seth Henry and Wyatt Foster in their No. 144 Huracán. Josef Knopp and Pietro Perolini finished third in ProAm in the No. 61 Oregon Team Huracán.

Race 2: Overall polesitter Chris van der Drift was able to use track position to his and Todd Kingsford’s advantage to finish sixth overall and win the ProAm class Sunday in the No. 298 VSR Huracán. A second-place finish was enough to secure the World Final title for Formánek and Pretorius in their No. 11 Mičánek Huracán. Paolo Biglieri and Marzio Moretti finished third in their No. 32 ASR Huracán. The top ProAm finishers from North America were Keawn Tandon and Lindsay Brewer, who rallied to fifth in their No. 177 Forty7 Motorsports Huracán.
