Bryan Sellers, Madison Snow and Paul Miller Racing may have given the GTD field fits last year as their competitors tried to figure out a way to beat them in IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship…
American GTD PRO racing is wide open this year with 17 full-season contenders in 11 different marques. Roman De Angelis, now promoted to Gold status by the FIA, will lead the No. 27 Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Evo. While the team has not announced a full-season driving partner for De Angelis, for Daytona, he will be joined by Zacharie Robichon, the 2021 GTD champion. Korthoff/Preston Racing, winners of the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup last season, returns with Mike Skeen and Mikael Grenier as their drivers, along with Kenton Koch for the endurance races. Despite a strong performance last year, bad luck prevented them from winning championships. The No. 12 Vasser Sullivan Lexus RC F GT3 is also expected to be a strong contender.
