Jordan Taylor: “It will take patience and a little luck” in Lakeville

The ninth round of the seasonIMSA se déroule ce week-end à Lakeville, sur le circuit de Lime Rock Park, avec seulement 15 voitures en lice. Seules les GT disputent en effet ce Northeast GP sur le tracé du Connecticut. La séance de qualitications a été dominée par Matt Campbell avec la Porsche n°9 de Pfaff Motorsports, tandis que Jordan Taylor devait se contenter de la cinquième place pour Corvette Racing. Une dernière place de catégorie inhabituelle pour la célèbre voiture jaune, gênée par la sortie des stands d’un autre concurrent pendant la séance.

“A really frustrating session, admits Jordan Taylor. We have made good progress since the first practice session. It took us a while to balance the car this morning, but this afternoon we made a good step forward. I thought a front row start was a possibility until I got stuck. After that, I couldn't get the tire pressure and temperature back up. Overall I think our Corvette is good and we should have a good race pace. We will just have to work even harder to gain places, whether on the track or in the pitlane. We can do it but it will take patience and a bit of luck on this circuit. »
