Liam McNeilly of Jay Howard Driver Development dominated the second USF Juniors race at the Tatuus Grand Prix of Mid-Ohio, closing the gap to points leader Max Taylor in the battle for a valuable scholarship. McNeilly led from start to finish, with Bruno Ribeiro and Ariel Elkin completing the podium. Sebastian Wheldon, the early-season points leader, dropped to fourth after a late challenge from Ribeiro and Elkin. McNeilly’s strong performance, aided by a well-timed caution, secured him the victory in an intense one-lap dash to the finish. Despite Wheldon’s disappointment, he set a new lap record and gained valuable championship points. Patricio Gonzalez earned the Tilton Hard Charger Award, while Jay Howard received the PFC Award as the winning car owner.
