ANALYSIS
Nielsen was a last minute stand-in for the all-female driving lineup of the No. 57 MSR Acura. It looks as though she has been confirmed for the remainder of the Endurance Cup races with this team. Nielsen and her co-pilots struggled to a 12th-place finish in class at the season opening Rolex 24. The Dane has a winning pedigree, with four IMSA Weathertech victories since 2016. "I am excited to be driving with the Heinricher Racing effort and Meyer Shank Racing for the rest of the Michelin Endurance Cup events," said Nielsen. "I've always known MSR to be a very good team and racing for them only impressed me more with their professional approach to everything, so hopefully we can fight for the (Michelin) Endurance Cup this year."
