Sebastien Bourdais feels Cadillac's IMSA SportsCar Championship form has suffered due to a mid-season switch in Michelin's tire compounds.
Bourdais, co-driver of the #01 Chip Ganassi Racing Cadillac V-Series.R with Renger van der Zande, made the remark as he shared his thoughts on the team's progress ahead of the Battle on the Bricks at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course on September 17.
"The Cadillacs were a bit happier on softer compounds, taking better care of the tires. Now that it’s the harder tire through the summer and it’s going to hold true at Indy, it has been harder for us to extract the most out of it and others have been able to kind of pop up in terms of performance. However, since the Six Hours of the Glen, the #01 car has not been able to finish higher than fourth, leaving Bourdais and van der Zande sixth in the overall standings with two races to go.
