4 Acura aces chasing their first 12 Hours of SebringRaceway triumph this weekend
Just two of the six drivers in Acura’s ARX-06s in this weekend’s Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring is a former winner, but it’s a statistic that all are confident they can change.
“In my CV, I don’t have a win at Sebring, so a win would come at the right time with the LMDh. I’m looking forward to it. We were the quickest at the official test which shows the level of competitiveness of the car and we will give it our all as always.” “Everybody from WTRAndretti is excited about the 12 Hours of Sebring,” said team owner Wayne Taylor. “It’s one of the races that we haven’t won since 2017 and now that we are leading the championship, it would make it that much sweeter to win here as well.
“As for the weather, it’s so weird that we have had no rain in Florida, yet on race day it looks like there is a 99 percent chance of rain. But we’re all in the same boat and it’s really the drivers’ problem. It’s been a tough long break since the Rolex 24, so I’m very excited for the weekend and I can’t wait to see all our sponsors at the track.”
Blomqvist finished seventh in GTLM class at Sebring in 2019, and fifth last year for MSR in the DPi Acura. Like Albuquerque and Deletraz, he will compete in Friday’s WEC race, for United in LMP2, but said of his IMSA duties, “Sebring is one of, if not the toughest races on the calendar. The track is demanding on the car, the drivers and the team.
