September 24, 2026

• SHEENA MONK produced one of her strongest 2026 IMSA drives, leading Bronze classification and climbing to sixth overall in GTD before late fuel stop relegated the Myers Riley Motorsports Ford Mustang to ninth at Indianapolis.
• MONK’s opening stint showcased exceptional pace and consistency, passing competitors including Orey Fidani’s Ferrari to seize Bronze lead. She maintained low-1:26s laptimes while building gap before handing off to Felipe Fraga.
• Felipe Fraga continued the charge, reaching second overall in GTD and leading Bronze class after strategic caution period. He posted fastest lap at 1:25.047 before fuel constraints forced late splash-and-dash.
