For the 2019 season, the Pirelli World Challenge was rebranded as the TC America Series.[18] Filippi returned to Team TFB at the beginning of the season, driving the number 12 Hyundai Veloster N TCR in the TCR class. At the season's first two races at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, Filippi came in first, achieving the initial race's fastest lap, as well.[19] Because of scheduling conflicts with the Michelin Pilot Challenge season, Filippi did not compete in the next four races on the TC America Series schedule. In May 2019, it was announced that he would return to the TC America Series as a member of the Copeland Motorsports team. He continued driving the Hyundai Veloster N TCR[20] and went on to win four additional races that season. With 187 points, he finished third in the overall standings despite competing in only ten of the 16 races that year.[21]

That victory came after the number 89 car, which finished ahead of Filippi, was disqualified for failing to give one of its drivers the minimum drive-time.[25] Filippi and Gottsacker finished in second place in the overall standings with 268 points.[24]

For the 2020 Michelin Pilot Challenge season, it was announced that Filippi would stay with Bryan Herta Autosport (with Curb-Agajanian) but would become Michael Lewis' co-driver in the number 98 Hyundai Veloster N TCR.[26] The pair came in fourth in the season's first race at the Daytona International Speedway.[27] The next race in the series was scheduled for March 2020, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the meantime, Filippi competed in the IMSA iRacing Pro Series[28] before the Michelin Pilot Challenge returned in July 2020.[29] Filippi and Lewis secured two victories in the 2020 season, one at Virginia International Raceway and the other at Road Atlanta. They finished in third place overall with 273 points.[24]

For the 2021 Michelin Pilot Challenge season, Filippi is part of the Hyundai USA/ Bryan Herta Autosport Team Driver to drive for Copeland Motorsports in the TCR class. He will drive the number 51 Hyundai Veloster N TCR with co-driver AJ Muss.[30]

He would later make his debut at Mid-Ohio.
