Blomqvist braced for the streets of Detroit

The sixth round of the 2022 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship takes Tom to Detroit

Tom and the team remain in the thick of the battle for the IMSA DPi championship, trailing the leaders by only 32 points

After victory at Daytona and back-to-back second-place finishes at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca and Mid-Ohio, Tom heads to Detroit full of confidence despite the circuit favouring his rivals

The Detroit weekend will be Blomqvist’s first race in Detroit - and is the only venue on the IMSA calendar that he has not raced at.

“Detroit is another street track, another set of challenges compared to the last two events. I think we need to look back at how we performed at Long Beach. It will be a bit of a tough weekend for us as Detroit is a track that is more suited to the Cadillacs. But nonetheless we showed a lot of promise in Long Beach and hopefully we can carry that direction into Detroit. I’m looking forward to it - it’s actually the only track on the calendar that I don’t know. So I’ll need to get my bearings and get up to speed a bit more quickly, and it’s not an easy track, it’s actually quite challenging. But I know we’ll go into the weekend as we always do and hopefully we’ll have another good result.”
