Acura’s Filipe Albuquerque and Ricky Taylor won the fifth round of the IMSA SportsCar Championship, a chaotic 100-minute super sprint event featuring five cautions, at Detroit.
On the series’ debut on the tight and twisty 1.654-mile, nine-turn temporary street circuit in downtown Detroit, Taylor beat Porsche’s Mathieu Jaminet after pulling off a great overtaking move inside the final 25 minutes in GTP. AO Racing’s Seb Priaulx and Laurin Heinrich won the GTD Pro class in their Porsche 911. After the pair of factory-backed Porsche Penske Motorsport 963s swept the front row in qualifying, poleman Nick Tandy’s #6 car led Dane Cameron’s #7 entry to the green flag.
It went green again with 15m to go, with Jaminet keen to avenge Taylor, while Nasr attacked van der Zande. Bruni made a move on Krohn to snatch sixth, with Aitken following suit. But as Bruni attacked Deletraz, he got swiped by Aitken and slammed into the wall approaching Turn 4. That led to a fifth caution, as Bruni’s car was stranded. Taylor survived the final restart with seven minutes remaining to record the #10 Acura’s first win since Road America in 2022.
