“Brazilian back with HMS for full-season campaign”

Providing Hixon Motor Sports (HMS) with their first victory back in 2021 by 0.001 and continuing his winning ways in 2022, Selin “The Machine” Rollan is back for one final season in the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by BFGoodrich Tires (MX-5 Cup) season in 2023. Once again committing his talents to Hixon Motor Sports before switching his focus to become a full-time commercial airline pilot, Rollan will pilot the #87 Austin Hatcher Foundation (AHF) branded machine in his quest to secure the series title and a quarter-million dollars and maybe even a lease on a Mazda for a full year.

With a new season of the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup Presented by BF Goodrich less than two months away, 2019 Series Championship-winning team Copeland Motorsports is pleased to confirm their first signee of the 2023 season. Returning after a rookie year in 2022, Max Opalski has his sights set high when the new season takes the green flag in January at the famed Daytona International Speedway.

Competing in a variety of different race programs over the past few seasons including the IMSA Prototype Challenge, female racer Hanna Zellers is set to join Hixon Motor Sports (HMS) in 2023. Ready to tackle the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by BFGoodrich Tires (MX-5 Cup), Zellers is the first signee of the HMS program for 2023 and the first female confirmed for the upcoming season.
