After the withdrawal of Haas F1 Team driver Kevin Magnussen, the MDK Motorsports team had to look for a replacement driver. This weekend, Jason Hart will join Jan Magnussen, Mark Kvamme and Trenton Estep in a car that was previously entered in GTD.

 

But yesterday, on the eve of the first free practice session of the 61st edition of the 24 Hours of Daytona, the team decided to upgrade its Porsche 911 GT3 to GTD Pro, increasing the number of competitors in this category from ten to 23 cars expected to compete in GTD.

 

This change in class will give the team morethe driving times of its drivers, which will be increased to two hours for the Bronze, in this case Mark Kvamme. As a reminder, just before the Roar, TGM by TF Sport had done the same with its Aston Martin with the number 64.
