With drivers Laurin Heinrich and Klaus Bachler, AO Racing won its third consecutive race (GTD Pro at Sebring and Laguna Seca, GTD at Long Beach) by beating the No. 81 DragonSpeed Ferrari 296 GT3 and No. 3 Corvette Racing Z06 GT3.R.

In a year where a single team's dominance has been the story across IMSA and the FIA WEC's respective top categories, Porsche Penske Motorsport finishing 1-2 at Laguna Seca is hardly a surprise.

With Porsche back on top, AO Racing’s California magic intact, and Mercedes-AMG doubling down in GTD, Laguna Seca once again delivered a masterclass in green-flag strategy and edge-of-your-seat finishes.
