GRRL! SUMMARY:
- ANNA CECCHI opened her 2026 Porsche Sprint Challenge North America title campaign with a statement-making weekend, leading every single lap across both races at Sebring to claim a dominant double victory. The young American driver showed the composure and racecraft that made her a consistent podium finisher last season, maturely handling pressure from Keith Grant while setting fastest laps and pole positions.
- Building on her impressive 2025 season where she finished third in Cayman Pro/Am standings with 10 podium finishes, CECCHI proved she’s ready to step up her game. Her qualifying pace was particularly strong, consistently running fastest times in practice and securing pole positions for both races. The Charlie Hayes Racing driver’s versatility shined through as she expertly managed tire temperatures and traffic while maintaining her leads.
- The weekend showcased CECCHI’s championship credentials as she extracted maximum points from the opening round. Her lights-to-flag performances demonstrated both raw speed and tactical intelligence, responding to challenges from Grant by extending her leads when needed. With this dominant start, she’s positioned herself as the early championship favorite heading to Barber Motorsports Park in late March.
