Wayne Taylor Racing Provisional Winner At Road America as IMSA Reviews Crash; Lionspeed Takes Magny‑Cours Sprint Cup

A late Turn 1 collision at Road America is under a comprehensive IMSA review that could change final classifications and championship points.

Overview

  • Wayne Taylor Racing’s No. 10 Cadillac driven by Filipe Albuquerque and Ricky Taylor was first to the checkered flag in the six‑hour Motul SportsCar Endurance Grand Prix, ending a more than two‑year winless run for the pairing.
  • IMSA has opened a comprehensive post‑race review of the late‑restart crash between Kevin Estre and Jack Aitken that sent both cars into the barriers and left race results provisional pending any penalties or reclassification.
  • The Road America race featured heavy disruption with nine full‑course cautions totaling over two hours behind the safety car and numerous drive‑through and time penalties that reshuffled class finishing orders.
  • At Magny‑Cours on Sunday Lionspeed GP’s Ricardo Feller and Bastian Buus won Sprint Cup Race 2 after a 30‑minute red‑flag pause to repair barriers following Dustin Blattner’s heavy Ferrari crash, while Team WRT’s No. 32 lost its Race 2 pole for a boost‑use infringement before retiring with suspension damage.
  • The combined effects of on‑track collisions, steward rulings and strategic pit timing are likely to alter championship momentum for several teams with IMSA’s review at Road America the key outstanding item to watch before standings are finalized.
