All the champions, all the winners, all the numbers that mattered at Road Atlanta.
It was a dramatic day at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta for overall winners Meyer Shank Racing. Here's a wrap-up of the 10-hour Motul Petit Le Mans from Road Atlanta and what happened in the five classes at the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship wrapped up another season:In yet another surprise, if not bizarre ending at the Petit Le Mans, the Meyer Shank Racing team won the race and the WeatherTech Championship, beating their Acura DPi rivals at Wayne Taylor Racing.
Blomqvist said he was both saving fuel and closing in on the Taylor Acura and would have won on pace after it’s strategy of setting up for the night began to pay dividends. “We were closing in slowly and I believe we would have caught them,” he said. “But that yellow changed a lot.” “The whole race was just wild,” said Hawksworth, adding, “I had more contact in the last thirty minutes than during the entire season.” Serendipitous or not, Barnicoat said Lexus has put a lot of resources into achieving success in the major endurance races. The team led the majority of laps. “I’m very happy about winning this one,” said Barnicoat.
“There were lots of lows today,” said Roman De Angelis, who led the points coming into the race with the Heart of Racing Team. “We went through a couple of steering wheels on pit stops and had lots of issues.” That included a drive through penalty after a tire removed during a pit stop was hit as the team’s Aston Martin Vantage GT3 exited its pit stall. “The team did a great job to stay motivated and keep fighting.
