Claims GTD Honors at Daytona
IMSA
January 23, 2022
GTD honors at Daytona went to the No. 57 Winward Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo of Auer and Russell Ward, which finished fourth among the GTD cars overall, sportscar365.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Class leader, Kenny Habul, would lose the lead early in the 100-minute qualifying race to Ward. Auer would take over the No. 57 Mercedes-AMG and hold off a stiff challenge from the No. 59 Crucial Motorsports McLaren over the closing laps to secure the GTD class victory. Auer, Ward and their co-pilots will start from the GTD pole in next weekend's Rolex 24.
