With a one-two result, Porsche continues its winning streak in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. At the third to last race of the season, Patrick Pilet (France) and Nick Tandy (Great Britain) crossed the finish line in the Porsche 911 RSR as the overall winners. Laurens Vanthoor (Belgium) and Earl Bamber (New Zealand) finished second driving the number 912 sister car and, thanks to their victories Long Beach, Mid-Ohio, and Canada’s Bowmanville, continue to hold the lead. The winners of the rounds at Sebring and Watkins Glen, Pilet and Tandy, managed to reduce the gap with their third win to eleven points in the drivers’ classification. In the GTLM class, Porsche also holds a clear lead the manufacturers’ classification with 304 points.

A weekend that started off leaving Meyer Shank Racing wanting more, ended in the team’s favor after Mario Farnbacher and Trent Hindman brought home a second place finish with the No. 86 AutoNation Acura NSX GT3 at Virginia International Raceway (VIR) on Sunday. The all GT weekend marked the ninth round of GTD competition in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
