A very successful race for Action Express and the #31 Whelen Engineering Cadillac V Series R LMDh. Kudos to the whole team for their efforts, especially those of our drivers, Pipo Derani, Jack Aitken, and Tom Blomqvist. All three of them put in monster stints, especially in the Sunday morning hours before the end. Pipo Derani did a marathon stint at daybreak and then, it was Jack Aitken who did absolutely everything including getting around the #7 Porsche 963, the eventual race winning car, in the hands of Australian Porsche factory driver Matt Campbell. The star though, in the final stint was definitely two-time Rolex 24 winner Tom Blomqvist. He absolutely laid everything on the line which included a remarkable pass towards the very end of the race to make a move on Porsche's Felipe Nasr.
We did everything beautifully, executing to the highest level as we always do at Action Express. If you want to see something incredible, check this out.
This is why our team at Action Express is so good! Would another driver have really gone for it like that? It is possible, especially in the waning moments of one of if not the biggest race of the season. Blomqvist sent it and delivered! Again, a huge congratulations to the team on a job well done. Second place, a phenomenal effort. Next year, we will be back in victory lane at the Rolex 24. You can count on that. As for the rest of the season, this certainly bodes well. I believe that Action Express will score many victories this year! Another championship, after our 2023 triumph, is definitely in the cards as well. We'll see everybody at Sebring for the 72nd running of the iconic 12 Hours of Sebring, at Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Florida, on Saturday, March 16th. Join us there. It is going to be a good one!
