From S365's roundup this evening:
***The prospects of a third Acura ARX-05 on the grid for next year are believed to have been recently vetoed by Team Penske, which currently holds the right of exclusivity for the DPi car. An existing IMSA GT Daytona team had been known to have inquired about running a customer Acura DPi car.
Any guesses as to who? My money would be in Shank wanting to run an Acura program.
***Doonan confirmed to Sportscar365 that its DPi program is “here to say” although would not outright confirm Joest Racing returning for 2020. The manufacturer’s partnership with the German outfit was multi-year when announced in mid-2017 although Doonan said they will “never comment” on the exact duration of such agreements.
Any chance they'd change from Joest after 2 wins finally? I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 2 year deal so it could expire this fall but they would have to renew if Joest was interested.
***Madison Snow is set to return to the wheel of Paul Miller’s Lamborghini in a test at Road Atlanta next week. Miller said he let the Snow family know of the testing opportunity, which was taken up by the 23-year-old, who hasn’t driven since winning the GTD championship at Motul Petit Le Mans last year.
One of the greatest screw jobs on a driver continues, Madison isn't a pro just really damn good.
