#IMSA - 24h Daytona pushed us hard and showed our potential ⏱️

The opening @IMSA race came with surprises – even Nürburgring-style fog. 🌫️👀 We led laps in GTD PRO & GTD, finishing P5 (#911) and P12 (#912). Eyes on Sebring, motivated and ready 🙌

[Ryan Hardwick @ryanhardwick]

Well, the cards didn’t fall our way this time.

Some major bad luck struck when our engine started overheating while battling inside the top 3. We had to make an unscheduled pit stop to clean dirt and rubber from the radiator so the engine could survive.

This set us back outside the top 10, and on top of that we then had to serve a drive through penalty for “blocking” another car that we were racing for position.

So not really sure what to say…

Unfortunately, this is how racing goes sometimes.

#IMSA - 20 hours done, 4 to go 🤯💪
A tactically smart pit stop strategy during the 6.5-hour FCY phase at night and the strong performance of our drivers after the restart put both #Manthey cars on the hunt for the podium @IMSA

Under 3 hours to go in the @DAYTONA Rolex 24. We’ve fought our way back from an early penalty as well as the dense fog through the overnight hours to now be inside the top 3 battling for the win.

Keep your fingers crossed. 🤞🏼

With 6 hours remaining the fog delay has been lifted and Richard Lietz has begun his stint!

Currently P8

The Final stretch has begun , lock in your seat belts!
