The 2024 Chevrolet Grand Prix will be a sports car race held at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park in Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada, on July 14, 2024. It will be the seventh round of the 2024 IMSA SportsCar Championship.
Background
Preview
International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) president John Doonan confirmed the race was part of the 2024 IMSA SportsCar Championship (IMSA SCC) in August 2023.[1] It will be the ninth time the IMSA SCC hosts a race at Mosport. The 2024 Chevrolet Grand Prix will be the seventh of eleven scheduled sports car races of 2024 by IMSA.[2] The race will be held at the ten-turn 2.459 mi (3.957 km) Canadian Tire Motorsports Park on July 14, 2024.[2]
Standings before the race
The LMP2 Drivers' Championship is currently led by Josh Burdon, Felipe Fraga, and Gar Robinson after their second-place finish in Watkins Glen. They hold a six-point lead over second-placed Ryan Dalziel, Dwight Merriman, Connor Zilisch, with Nick Boulle, Tom Dillmann, and Jakub Śmiechowski in third, 40 points behind Burdon, Fraga, and Robinson.[3] The GTD Pro Drivers' Championship is topped by Laurin Heinrich and Sebastian Priaulx with 1632 points, 49 ahead of Ben Barnicoat and Jack Hawksworth in second. Ross Gunn sits in third, 60 points behind Heinrich and Priaulx.[3] The GTD Drivers' Championship is led by Philip Ellis and Russell Ward with 1745 points after their fourth win of the season, 305 points ahead of Robby Foley and Patrick Gallagher in second.[3] The Manufacturers' Championships are led by Porsche and Mercedes-AMG, respectively, and the Teams Championships' are led by Riley, AO Racing, and Winward Racing, respectively.[3]
Entry list
The entry list was revealed on July 3, 2024, and features 35 entries: 12 entries in LMP2, 9 entries in GTD Pro, and 14 entries in GTD. The LMP2 class sees some changes: Filipe Albuquerque, Renger van der Zande, Scott Huffaker, Stuart Wilshire, Pipo Derani, and Louis Delétraz will all be driving in the headline LMP2 class during the event. In GTD Pro, Ross Gunn will once again be partnered by Mario Farnbacher in the No. 23 Heart of Racing Team Aston Martin.[4] In GTD, Spencer Pumpelly re-joins the No. 27 Heart of Racing Aston Martin. Furthermore, the No. 120 Wright Motorsports Porsche will be absent during the event.[5]
Qualifying
Saturday's afternoon qualifying session was broken into two sessions, with one session for the LMP2, GTD Pro and GTD classes, which lasted 15 minutes each.[6] The rules dictated that all teams nominated a driver to qualify their cars, with the Pro-Am LMP2 class requiring a Bronze rated driver to qualify the car. The competitors' fastest lap times determined the starting order. IMSA then arranged the grid to put LMP2s ahead of the GTD Pro, and GTD cars.[7]
