The Chevrolet Sports Car Classic is today’s second super sprint race in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, featuring a 100-minute duration. The race requires strategic thinking due to the balance of simplicity and complexity; only one pit stop is needed, but its timing is crucial. Tire strategy is also key – some winning teams have managed the entire race on a single set of tires due to the low-energy nature of the Detroit circuit. GTP teams are likely to skip tire changes for track position advantage. Teams had warmup sessions before the race, with Proton Competition leading the way in GTP and Corvette Racing in GTD PRO. In the race, traffic dynamics between GTP and GTD PRO cars on the street circuit may affect the competition, especially with different cornering and straight-line speeds. Expect intense battles as the race progresses and different strategies come into play.
