The 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship hasn’t even taken the green flag, and Corvette Racing partner team TF Sport is already reshuffling its LMGT3 lineup.
Bronze rated veteran Ben Keating is sidelined for the opening stretch after breaking his elbow in a training accident. The injury will keep the Texan out of the season opener at Imola later this month and the 6 Hours of Spa Francorchamps in May, though he’s aiming to return in time for June’s 24 Hours of Le Mans.
“As TF Sport prepares to kick off the 2026 FIA WEC season with the official Prologue – scheduled to take place at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola on April 14 – the whole team wishes Ben a speedy and full recovery and looks forward to seeing him back on track,” the team said in a statement.

Stepping into the vacant seat is fellow American Bronze driver Blake McDonald, who will join Jonny Edgar and Nicky Catsburg. McDonald, 35, is coming off a runner up finish in the GT World Challenge America Pro/Am standings and competed with TF Sport in the Asian Le Mans Series over the winter. He’s also part of the teamxs effort to defend its LMGT3 European Le Mans Series title when that championship opens in Barcelona next weekend.
