GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • SHEENA MONK is embracing her veteran status in IMSA after three seasons, moving to the “most professional operation” she’s experienced with Triarsi Competizione. She’s paired with championship-winning drivers Stevan McAleer and Mike Skeen in the No. 021 JG Wentworth Ferrari 296 GT3, bringing serious credentials to support her development in the hypercompetitive GTD field.
  • Despite a frustrating Rolex 24 result where contact and penalties cost a potential top-five finish, MONK is laser-focused on her role as the Bronze driver. She’s refreshingly honest about needing to improve her qualifying pace and racecraft to match her accomplished teammates, acknowledging the pressure of not being “the weak link” in sprint races while keeping the car clean for strategic fights.
  • The goals are ambitious but grounded – MONK wants to finish top three in the championship standings and capture the Bob Akin Bronze Cup, plus she’s got her sights set on taking this Ferrari to Le Mans. We love that she’s not apologizing for these “lofty” targets as a Bronze driver, because with the right team support and her proven track record at Road America, why shouldn’t she be thinking podiums and championships?

UPCOMING:

  • 12 Hours of Sebring – March 16
  • Long Beach Grand Prix – April 13
