The Canadian driver, from Oka (Québec), will be making the switch to sports cars this season and competing for MR in the famed Porsche Deluxe Carrera Cup North America at the helm of the #24 Evirum | Richelieu Porsche 992 GT3.

Aside from his campaign in USF2000, Thomas continues to race in professional karting whenever he can, with the support of Kart Republic.
