Heart of Racing not only took Rolex24 victory in the GTD category, but also beat every single runner in the GTD Pro class. Its team principal has hailed the squad and Aston Martin for their performance.
Following the triumph, 48-year-old James hailed the Seattle-based team for its performance, having been impressed by the job it has done to beat all-professional crews and finish highest among all GTD entrants.
“Obviously that's not the most important thing, but obviously having me part of the line-up, going against all those pro guys and still coming out on top, just is a testament to what these guys did and how hard and how well they drove and how well the team is. and all that, and to go toe to toe with them and beat them is a huge accomplishment.
With the two classes staying mixed up throughout the Rolex 24, including in qualifying, some onlookers see the distinction between GTD Pro and GTD as unnecessary and believe they could be merged into one single category.
