Daijiro Yoshihara Instagram – We’re tied for P5 at the IMPC championship midpoint! Are you going to tune in this Saturday to watch us climb the ladder even further? 📺 🪜
Although today’s Formula 1 calendar is well-known for its two United States races, COTA and Las Vegas, one venue trumps both for its F1 motorsport tenure: Watkins Glen (@wgi1948).
“The Glen” hosted an F1 contest for 20 consecutive years (1961-1980), and remains a destination for competitive road racing at nearly every level, including IMSA, which uses the track’s 3.377-mile, long course layout known as the “Boot”.
After clinching pole position in qualifying and finishing the last race in the top five, @mtlmtrsprtgrp has plenty of momentum to carry forward into the race weekend. 📈
“Watkins Glen is another high-speed, flowing layout which I like,” said Yoshihara. “We’re halfway through the season after this round, so I’m looking forward to getting some great results before heading into the second half of the season!”
The green flag drops at the Essex 120 at Watkins Glen on Saturday, June 22 from 12:50 PM to 2:55 PM ET with qualifying taking place a day prior from 6:30 to 7:05 PM ET. 🏁
