Despite these setbacks, the team aims to build on lessons learned and take encouragement from last year\u2019s performance at Watkins Glen, where the car ran solidly within the top five before a mechanical failure ended the race prematurely.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1782\">In GTD Pro, Pfaff Motorsports arrives with momentum, having claimed Lamborghini\u2019s first podium of the season at the Detroit street circuit, thanks to a strong showing from Caldarelli and Mapelli. The Hurac\u00e1n GT3 EVO2 has a strong track record at Watkins Glen, having contended for both GTD and GTD Pro wins last year before contact with a backmarker forced an early retirement.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1782\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-888662\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Lamborghini-SC63-returns-5-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1784\" data-end=\"2231\">Sandy Mitchell, a former British GT champion, joins Pfaff with a wealth of GT3 experience across Europe.
