Teams competing in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship at Motul Petit Le Mans this weekend have the chance to secure not only the overall season titles, but also the coveted Michelin Endurance Cup (IMEC) Championships. The IMEC consists of four races: the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring, the Sahlen’s Six Hours of the Glen, and Petit Le Mans. Teams can earn up to five points at various stages during the race, with a minimum of two points awarded to a running car at each stage. Whelen Engineering Cadillac Racing currently holds a seven-point advantage in the IMEC, making it difficult for their rivals from Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti Autosport to catch up. In the LMP2 class, there is a close battle for the top five positions, with only a two-point gap between each team. Meanwhile, in LMP3, Gar Robinson and his co-drivers have dominated the season, but they face stiff competition from three other teams. Finally, in GTD PRO, the top three teams all have victories in endurance races, with WeatherTech Racing currently leading the pack.
