During the Whelen Mazda MX-5 Cup race in St. Petersburg, Florida, Tyler Gonzalez from BSI Racing secured his second win of the season, with the first win at Daytona.

Nicholson showcased a brilliant play during the restart, briefly taking the lead but eventually being passed by Gonzalez for the win. Jared Thomas also had a successful weekend, securing a double podium finish and further adding to his points lead in the competition.
