ERIKA HOFFMANN Secures Second Podium of Rookie Porsche Sprint Challenge Season

May 20, 2025

• ERIKA HOFFMANN delivered another impressive weekend at Circuit of the Americas, securing her second podium of her rookie Porsche Sprint Challenge season with a third-place finish in the Cayman Pro/Am class. The Kellymoss driver showed remarkable adaptability, learning yet another new track while maintaining her streak of top-5 finishes that’s defined her debut campaign.
• Despite never turning a wheel at COTA before Thursday’s practice, HOFFMANN demonstrated steady improvement throughout the weekend, dropping her lap times by over two seconds from initial testing to qualifying. Her race craft shined in Saturday’s opener where she maximized her middle sector pace and capitalized on Loni Unser’s technical retirement to inherit the final podium spot when the race finished under caution.
• Sunday’s second race saw HOFFMANN execute a brilliant overtake on Daniel Ammann at turn one before settling into fifth place after some mid-race shuffling. Her consistent points scoring has her sitting third in the Cayman Pro/Am championship standings after three rounds, proving that sometimes the best rookie campaigns are built on smart, steady progress rather than flashy heroics.
