Petit Le Mans IMSA: Albuquerque heads Acura 1-2 in night practice

Albuquerque set the fastest lap in the qualifying session for the Petit Le Mans race, beating Tom Blomqvist by a very narrow margin of 0.003 seconds. The 10-hour race, which will finish in the darkness on Saturday, is expected to be highly competitive due to the yellow flag rules and the large number of entries.

Albuquerque ultimately secured the pole position in the Acura ARX-06, with Blomqvist in second place.
