Paladini Racing has confirmed that Fabián Yannantuoni and Juan Ángel Rosso will continue with the team in TCR South America in 2026 to race their pair of Lynk & Co 03 cars.
Rosso made his TCR début in 2022 when he narrowly missed out on the drivers’ title to Fabricio Pezzini, finishing as the runner-up with four victories.
The Argentine then joined Paladini Racing in 2023 when he got behind the wheel of a brand-new Toyota Corolla, but despite four podium finishes at the end of the season he finished the year without a win and fourth in the drivers’ standings.
Rosso continued to race a Toyota in 2024, but again endured a winless season, ending the year fifth overall with three podiums.
The team switched to older Lynk & Cos for the 2025 season, delivering three victories for Rosso, who concluded the season sixth overall.
“I’m incredibly happy and grateful to confirm my participation in another season of TCR South America,” said Rosso.
“Adding four Lynk & Co cars is a clear demonstration of the team’s seriousness and professionalism, and of our desire to fight for everything next year.
“It’s been a positive season, and having my future secured gives me extra motivation to start planning for 2026 with everything.”
Yannantuoni is one of the most experienced drivers in TCR South America. The Argentine’s touring car history goes back to 1998 when he first competed in TC2000, winning his first race in 2003.
The following year, Yannantuoni scored his best overall ranking in TC2000, finishing eighth overall. He raced in the series until 2022, before moving full-time to TCR South America. He was also the 2011 Turismo Nacional champion.
The 2025 season was the 46-year-old’s best season in touring cars as he ended the year fifth overall in the championship, with one win and a total of seven podiums.
Paladini Racing will run four cars in 2026, with the remaining two drivers to be confirmed in the coming days.
