HANNAH GRISHAM Secures Top-Six Start for Heart of Racing at Daytona

January 22, 2026

• HANNAH GRISHAM put the No. 26 Heart of Racing Team Aston Martin Vantage GT4 Evo sixth on the grid for the BMW M Endurance Challenge at Daytona, positioning herself as the top woman qualifier in a field dominated by seasoned male drivers.
• While Nate Cicero grabbed pole for McCumbee McAleer Racing in the No. 13 Ford Mustang GT4, GRISHAM’s sixth-place qualifying effort puts her right in the hunt for a strong finish in the four-hour IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge season opener.
• The qualifying session showcased the competitive depth of the GT4 field, with GRISHAM slotting in just behind the No. 39 CarBahn BMW and ahead of several other established teams, setting up what should be an intense battle when the green flag drops Friday at 1:45 p.m. ET.
