After a weekend of competition at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course, Toyota GAZOO Racing North America (TGRNA) named the 2025 GR Cup Series champions. Westin Workman of BSI Racing won the Am class, while Livio Galanti of Eagles Canyon Racing claimed the first Legends Cup title.
Workman is now the third different champion in the Am class over the three years of the series. Galanti is recognized as the inaugural winner in the new Legends Cup, which is presented by WWEX Group.
“We’re thrilled to congratulate Westin Workman on earning the 2025 GR Cup Series championship, along with Livio Galanti for capturing the inaugural Legends Cup title,” said Mike Norem, manager, customer racing, Toyota Racing Development (T.R.D. USA). “Westin delivered an exceptional season, combining consistency, precision and execution at some of North America’s most demanding circuits, while Livio’s performance set the benchmark for our new Legends Cup category. Both are deserving champions who embody what the GR Cup is all about.”
This season was Workman’s second as a full-time driver in the GR Cup Series and his first year with BSI Racing. In 2024, he had eight second-place finishes and three third-place results but had not yet secured a championship. In 2025, Workman won six races—including two wins each at Sebring International Raceway and Barber Motorsports Park—and also took victories at VIRginia International Raceway and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
With these results and six more podiums, Workman secured the Am class title one event before season’s end after winning at Barber Motorsports Park. It marks both his first championship in the series and BSI Racing’s first since joining in 2023.
“Winning the GR Cup Series championship as a Toyota Development Driver has not only been a full circle moment for me, but my family as well,” said Workman. “Growing up, my parents only drove Toyota and Lexus vehicles, and to now win a championship with the company is still hard to wrap my head around. It has been a long time coming, but now with six wins and a championship this season, I’m even hungrier for more in the future. I can’t wait to continue my motorsports journey with this amazing organization.”
The Legends Cup presented by WWEX Group was introduced this year for drivers aged 45 or older. The category included six races across weekends at Circuit of the Americas (COTA), Road America, and Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In his second year competing in the series, Galanti earned four victories—winning both races at Road America and Indianapolis—and achieved another podium finish at COTA.
“What an incredible season,” said Galanti. “I’m so thankful to Toyota, Eagles Canyon Racing and everyone who makes this all happen. It’s amazing that those of us in the Legends Cup category have the chance to drive with some of the best drivers in the country through the GR Cup Series. Getting to benchmark ourselves against these talented, up-and-coming young drivers is a special opportunity that Toyota provides us. To even have the chance to drive a GR86 Cup car and compete at these amazing race tracks our series travels to is such a treat for me.”
The next season for TGRNA’s GR Cup Series begins March 13-15, 2026 at Arlington’s new street circuit in Texas. More details about future schedules can be found at grcupseries.com or through official social media channels.
