Highlights

  • Championship Battle Closing Up. With three rounds and six races remaining, the Porsche Carrera Cup North America standings in the ExxonMobil Pro class is as close as it has been since the season began. With a pair of podium finishes at Road America, Ryan Yardley has decreased the margin to leader Riley Dickinson to just two points. Dickinson’s No. 91 Kellymoss Porsche followed Yardley across the finish in each race for a fourth-place and a third-place finish, respectively, on Saturday and Sunday to minimize the damage to his championship hopes. Topp Racing, boosted by the one-two punch of Yardley and Tyler Maxson, leads the Entrant standings. JP Martinez and Scott Blind continue their leads in the Solairus Pro-Am and Solairus Masters classes.
