History

The team was founded in 2013 as Cimed Racing. In 2016, the team won that years' championship with Felipe Fraga.[4][3] For the 2019 season, the team created a second team called Crown Racing.[5] The Cimed team stopped competing before the 2020 season, with its "B" team, Crown Racing, taking over both operations.[6] In 2021, Crown Racing inaugurated a new base of operations at the Autódromo Velo Città.[7]
