The ninth running of the Historic Sportscar Racing Classic Daytona presented by IMSA 24 Hour race at Daytona International Speedway was filled with dominating victories, late-race drama, and a rare double Run Group winning duo. The race featured seven different Run Groups, each competing for 24 straight hours on the Daytona road course. This year, Iconic Racing and co-drivers Gerard Lopez and Marcel Fassler secured overall victories in both Run Group A and Run Group F. Lopez and Fassler led all four race segments in both groups, giving Lopez his first Group A triumph since 2017. In Run Group A, they finished comfortably ahead of competitors like Toni Seiler and Adrian Newey. In Run Group F, they finished securely ahead of Pierce Marshall and Eric Foss. This makes them the first team since 2014 to achieve a double victory in the Classic 24 Run Group. Unfortunately, John Reisman and Hudson, who achieved this feat in 2014, fell victim to late-race drama for the second consecutive year.
