Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports driver Nicky Catsburg has expressed concern on IMSA’s new-for-2025 restart procedure for the GTD Pro and GTD classes, which are split up. The new format made its debut in January’s Rolex 24 at Daytona, resulting in a contact-heavy conclusion to the race.

Catsburg said: “With GTD Pros all together, I predict mayhem. If IMSA keeps officiating like they do now, I predict that people may just ram each other off.
That’s something that I really hope does not happen. Because you’ve survived for 11 hours and then in the end you are just waiting to get smashed.

That shouldn’t be. I hope they officiate this a bit stronger, or they try and set the tone in the drivers’ briefing to put more emphasis on it. You want a nice show, but I also want fair racing, so let’s see.”
