TUCK REUNITES WITH PROTON FOR 2025 FIA WORLD ENDURANCE CHAMPIONSHIP!

In a major career announcement, Ben Tuck will be competing in the 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship. He will reunite with Proton Competition and Ford Performance to be part of a three-man crew in the #77 Ford Mustang GT3 entry alongside Ford factory driver Ben Barker and former Portuguese Rally Champion, Bernardo Sousa.

Ben embarks on this next major step in his career after his highly successful debut at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2024 with Proton Competition and Ford Performance in the #44 Ford Mustang GT3, in which he drove the car to fourth place in class with factory driver Christopher Mies and bronze rated John Hartshorne.

2025 will be the second FIA WEC season for the Ford Mustang GT3 and Proton Competition. In its 2024 debut season, the Mustang not only claimed third and fourth positions at Le Mans, but also scored points in five of the other seven races. The car has since gone on to further prove its prowess in last weekend’s Rolex 24 At Daytona, where Dennis Olsen, Christopher Mies and Frédéric Vervisch triumphed in the GTD Pro category, with the sister Mustang taking the chequered flag third.

Ben Tuck has long planned out his route to WEC and Le Mans:
“Competing in FIA WEC has been my goal since I started racing, having taken the sportscar route instead of single seaters,” said Tuck, who started his 2025 season by winning the Dubai 24 Hours outright.

“To now say I’m doing that, with a fantastic team like Proton Competition and in a Ford Mustang, is very exciting. I have a good relationship with the team already since I competed at Le Mans last year in their third entry, so it should be a seamless introduction to the full championship for me. Thank you to everyone who has made this possible. I can’t wait to get started.”

The action will get underway with the Qatar 1812km on 28 February, preceded by the traditional Prologue test at the Lusail International Circuit.
