Just retired, the quarterback with seven Super Bowls will be sponsoring a Hypercar team, the Hertz Jota team this season.


NFL fans will never see Tom Brady again on American football lawns.

It will rather be necessary to travel on the circuits to meet the legendary quarterback (45 years old) at the seven Super Bowls.

Just retired after a disappointing last season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the American has just started in Endurance by sponsoring the Hertz Team Jota team which will participate in the World Championship.

An involvement that will go through a presence in the Sarthe to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans (June 10 and 11).

The Porsche 963 entrusted to the trio Antonio Felix Da Costa, Will Stevens and Yifei Ye will display the colors and the logo of Brady clothing.

"

We're all looking forward to the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans later this year

," said the former New England Patriots icon with whom he won six of his seven Super Bowls.

"

I've always been a huge motorsport fan,

" added the Californian.

Being part of the Hertz Jota team and shaping the future of motorsport clothing and design is an incredibly exciting opportunity

,” concluded the US superstar on the subject.

Tom Brady has ended his NFL career after 22 seasons at the top level.

Tom Brady's participation in the World Endurance Championship which will begin with the 1000 miles of Sebring on March 17 only confirms the growing interest of the United States for the discipline and obviously the 24 Hours of Le Mans even if the Hertz Jota team runs under the British banner.

Alongside the American team Glickenhaus, already present last year, we will find this year Cadillac which will enter three cars, two with the official Cadillac Racing and one with the Action Express Racing team.
