Team Penske Acuras dominate qualifying in Detroit

Team Penske is currently in good shape in IMSA. After the victory of the Acura of Dane Cameron and Juan Pablo Montoya at Mid-Ohio last month, the Colombian took pole on the streets of Detroit (Michigan) by beating the sister car ofHelio Castroneves of 2 tenths.

Jonathan Bomarito was the closest in his Team Joest Mazda, ahead of the Action Express Racing Cadillacs led by Luis Felipe Derani and Filipe Albuquerque. The #10 Wayne Taylor Racing car driven by Renger van der Zande followed in 6th place. The JDC-Miller Motorsports model on which Tristan Vautier is entered will start from 10th position.

Robby Foley s’est chargé de signer la pole de la catégorie GTD sur la BMW M6 GT3 du Turner Motorsport, mais la voiture a été déclarée non-conforme par les commissaires techniques, pour un souci de carrossage. La Porsche 911 GT3 R n°73 – Park Place Motorsports de Long – Robichon récupère ainsi la pole.

After post-qualifying technical inspection, the No. 96 was moved to the rear of the GTD field due to a camber infraction. @ZRobichon now will start Saturday's race from the GTD pole position. #IMSA / #DetroitGP
