MADELINE Stewart is targeting an IMSA SportsCar Championship seat by 2028 after signing a three-year deal with American team Czabok-Simpson Motorsport.
Stewart had raced in Super3 (with Brad Jones Racing) and Porsche single-make racing in Australia before taking her career to the United States in 2023.
Now she will progress from Porsche Carrera Cup North America to the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge Championship, driving a Porsche Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport in the GS class.
“This partnership with CSM represents a major step forward in my career,” said the Kiwi.

“This multi-year deal allows us to build momentum with clear intent and work towards long-term goals together.
“Porsche has been fundamental to my racing journey and continuing with the brand while joining a team entering its third season in the Michelin Pilot Challenge aligns perfectly with where I’m headed.
“I’m excited to grow with CSM on and off the track and to continue progressing within IMSA at the highest level.”
CSM co-owner Stephen Simpson said: “Madeline brings proven Porsche experience, professionalism, and strong potential.

“Several of our current drivers are on long-term agreements, Madeline fits perfectly within our current driver raster and shares our long-term vision were we want to progress in the future.
“This three-year commitment allows us to focus on development – both competitively and commercially – and to work toward a shared objective of stepping into the WeatherTech Championship together.”
CSM is based in Brownsburg, Indiana.
