Max Angelelli
Max Angelelli

Max Angelelli has been a friend and driving partner with Wayne Taylor since 1999 when, in their first race together, they made it to the podium as runners-up in the Rolex 24 at Daytona. Max helped Wayne launch the Cadillac Prototype racing program in 2000, co-drove with Wayne in the No. 10 SunTrust Racing Pontiac Riley from 2004 through 2006, and joined Wayne in the November 2006 formation of Wayne Taylor Racing, which carried the SunTrust banner in the Rolex Series for the fourth season in 2010.

Max is a great all-around race driver with experience in GT cars, prototypes, and single-seaters and has raced in Europe, North America and the Orient. Known as a real challenger, he faced the Porsche and Mercedes factory teams in the European GT series, finishing fourth in overall driver points in 1998. Before that, he focused on the ultra-competitive European Formula 3 Championship, where he earned a top spot with the factory-backed Volkswagen team, as well as driving for Team West McLaren. With the SunTrust team, Max co-drove with Taylor to the 2005 Rolex Series team and drivers title. Through the 2011 season, Angelelli has 18 Rolex Series victories to his credit, third on the all-time career list only to Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas.
