IMSA’s sole trip to Canada will feature the Chevrolet Grand Prix at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park on July 14, a 2-hour and 40-minute sprint race. Due to a clash with the FIA World Endurance Championship’s 6 Hours of Sao Paulo, Paul di Resta will be replaced by Albuquerque in the #22 Oreca 07 LMP2. The race will only include LMP2, GTD, and GTD Pro classes as it is one of the two 2024 IMSA races without the GTP category. Albuquerque expressed excitement about co-driving with Daniel Goldburg for the overall victory at the Mosport race. United Autosports CEO, Richard Dean, praised Albuquerque’s skills and expressed confidence in his performance alongside Goldburg in Canada. Filipe and four other GTP drivers will compete in LMP2 machinery at the CTMP, aiming for victory after an unsuccessful 24 Hours of Le Mans.
