After having been forced to skip the Phoenix race following a major accident during the Rolex 24 at Daytona, JMB Racing USA is finally back for round 4 of the Rolex Sports Car Series with a newly rebuilt Ferrari 360 Modena GT.

The JMB Racing driver lineup for the Canadian race will be made up of Edi Gay and Maurizio Mediani from Italy and Iradj Alexander from Switzerland.

After missing two rounds of the 2004 Grand American series, all at JMB Racing USA understand that it will be difficult to go after the coveted GT class title this year, nevertheless JMB Racing USA and its drivers are more motivated than ever and excited about their upcoming racing challenges starting May 23 with the 6 Hours of Mont Tremblant in Quebec.

"This time, we are back!", announced team co-owner Ludovico Manfredi. "It has been a long period of waiting and hard work for our JMB Racing European and American crews but we are proud to be able to rejoin the series with the same winning spirit as before. Mont Tremblant is one of the most beautiful racetracks in North America and I am truly very glad we can make our comeback here in Canada."

On the drivers' side, since making its debut at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, JMB Racing USA driver Maurizio Mediani kept busy, he won his first race for JMB Racing in a Ferrari 550 Maranello at the first round of the Italian GT championship in Monza.

In Europe, JMB Racing started its racing program with an ambitious program that includes the entries of three Ferrari 575 GTC in the FIA GT championship, one Ferrari 360 Modena GTC in the Le Mans Endurance Series and the 24 Hours of Le Mans and one Ferrari 550 Maranello in the Italian GT Championship.

After three FIA GT and two Italian GT championship races, JMB Racing has already scored two wins in Italy and two second place finishes at Magny-Cours (FIA GT) and Monza (LMES), adding to the team's outstanding racing achievements.
