C8.R Corvette Claims First Laguna Win Since 2014
GTLM saw the No. 4 Chevy Corvette C8.R pairing of Nick Tandy & Tommy Milner break through for a long-awaited class win & the team’s first victory at Laguna Seca in more than seven years.
Nice pit work put Tandy out front of the No. 3 Corvette of Antonio Garcia in the final round of stops, despite the Englishman locking up the brakes at the pit exit & briefly going off-course.
It marked the No. 4 Corvette’s first points-paying class win since Sebring in July 2020 & was Tandy’s first official victory with the Pratt & Miller-run squad.
Tandy & Milner collected class honors in the Detroit round earlier this year in what was an exhibition race for the team.
The No. 79 WeatherTech Racing Porsche 911 RSR-19 of Cooper MacNeil and Matt Campbell, which won last time out at Road America, did not factor into Sunday’s race.
