Following a successful fourth-place finish at the Sahlen’s Six Hours of the Glen last month, Audi Sport Customer Racing team NTE Sport is back in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship next month for the IMSA SportsCar Weekend at Road America. The No. 42 Audi R8 LMS will be piloted by returning drivers Don Yount and JR Hildebrand.
GRT Grasser Racing headed to a very special circuit in the USA last weekend to contest the fourth round in the Sprint Cup of the 2021 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar championship. The venue was Lime Rock Park in the state of Connecticut, which is recognized as a place of historic importance. Once again, Lamborghini works driver Franck Perera and IMSA specialist Misha Goikhberg clearly demonstrated the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO’s strong pace in the American sports car championship at the Northeast Grand Prix. However, they had to settle for seventh place despite posting the fastest race lap. Bad weather led to the race being stopped before it had run its course.
The Paul Miller Racing team is leaving the Northeast with another podium finish, scoring second place in the weather-shortened Northeast Grand Prix at Lime Rock Park.

The team heads into the GT-only weekend ready to battle in the IMSA WeatherTech Sprint Cup Round 4 and IMSA MICHELIN Pilot Challenge Round 5. After a 10-day stay at the smooth and rolling Watkins Glen International, the 1.50, 7 turn, Lime Rock Park is a stark change for the drivers and crew. Fortunately, the Audi R8 chassis thrives on short and fast tracks, making Lime Rock Park its ideal circuit.

However, the endurance classic on the ex-Formula 1 racetrack did not bring the team the success they had hoped to achieve. The strong pace of the #19 Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO was to no avail after being forced to retire early.
After a late race caution eliminated the team’s 15 second leading advantage on the field, Meyer Shank Racing (MSR) finished second in the Sahlen’s Six Hours of The Glen on Sunday.
