Starworks Is Born!

February 10, 2010

Re-launched in January 2010 by Rolex Series veteran Peter Baron, Starworks Motorsport's two-car Daytona Prototype team is set to be among the fastest growing teams in the Rolex Series this year. Starworks Motorsport's team owner, Peter Baron, brings with him a phenomenal background of savvy businessman, successful entrepreneur and 20 years of motorsports experience as driver, manager and winning team owner.

Since 2005, Peter Baron has enjoyed a rewarding relationship and managed some of the most recognized drivers on the planet including 4 former F1 drivers; Stefan Johansson, Allan Mc Nish, Olivier Beretta and Tomas Enge. Other international driver stars like Dario Franchitti, Ryan Hunter Reay, Patrick Carpentier, Mike Rockenfeller and Roger Yasukawa also drove for Baron's team. In 2007 Baron's team, Samax, participated in 6 races of the Indy Car series including the Indianapolis 500 with female driver, Milka Duno. Milka also drove for Baron's team in the Rolex Series and scored with her teammates a 2nd place finish in the 2006 Rolex 24 At Daytona, the best finish in a major sports car race for a female driver.
