March 6, 2025 - Mouser Electronics, Inc.,  the New Product Introduction (NPI) leader™ empowering innovation, is excited to cheer on the Vasser Sullivan Lexus Racing team at the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Endurance Race on March 15 in Sebring, Florida.

The Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring offers a long weekend of racing action, with two days of practice and qualifying sessions leading up to the 12-hour race on Saturday. Sebring International Raceway will play host to the festivities, which is a 3.74-mile-long track boasting 17 corners. It is one of the oldest continuously operating racetracks in North America and was originally built as part of Hendricks Army Airfield, a WWII training base for B-17 pilots. The track's most defining feature is its famous, high-speed "Turn 17," a long, fast right-hander that can make or break a car's speed down the front straight. The corner, which can fit up to three cars wide, is also known as "Sunset Bend" because as night falls on the 12-hour race, drivers are looking right into the setting sun heading into the turn. The track also features a "safety pin" turn and the "Gendebien Bend," which is designed to slow the cars' entry to the Ullman straightaway. The track surface has 3.04 miles of asphalt and 0.7 miles of concrete and is notoriously bumpy due to its airfield origins.

The No. 14 Lexus RC F GT3 will be piloted by drivers Ben Barnicoat, Aaron Telitz, and Kyle Kirkwood, while Jack Hawksworth, Parker Thompson, and Frankie Montecalvo will be co-driving the No. 12 Lexus entry in the GTD class.

Mouser and valued manufacturer partner Molex co-sponsor the Vasser Sullivan Lexus Racing team, seeing the opportunity as an inventive way to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies.
