COURTNEY CRONE and CECILIA RABELO Battle Wet Conditions at Mid-Ohio

June 9, 2026

• COURTNEY CRONE dominated both Mid-Ohio practice sessions before challenging weather relegated her to fourth in Race 1. Contact with Ammann in Race 2 resulted in a penalty, though she posted fastest lap times post-incident.
• CRONE maintains second in GSX championship standings after topping practice by four-tenths. Her CarBahn Motorsports Toyota showed blistering pace throughout, suggesting podiums are imminent despite Mid-Ohio’s unrewarded speed.
• CECILIA RABELO returned after missing COTA, delivering sixth in Race 1 with Panam Motorsport. The Brazilian improved three seconds from morning practice and mounted late-race charges before beaching in Race 2’s gravel trap.
• Wet-to-dry track evolution proved pivotal as RABELO matched CRONE’s middle-sector pace. Her inexperience in GT4 machinery didn’t prevent consistent progress, closing five-second gaps before the turn-four excursion ended her weekend.
