9 Women are competing in the 24H of Daytona next weekend.
#83 (GTD) - Iron Dames: Doriane Pin, Rahel Frey, Sarah Bovy & Michelle Gatting
#66 (GTD) - Sheena Monk, Katherine Legge & Tatiana Calderón
#45 (GTD) - Ashton Harrison
#88 (LMP2) - Lilou Wadoux
This weekend we can already see a preview of what's about to go on with the roar before the 24. Practice has been going on since yesterday, where Katherine Legge topped the times in GTD during the second session.
Today practice continues and tomorrow Qualifying takes places. We won't see Doriane Pin until next week as she competes in F4 UAE this weekend.
The Daytona 24H is free to watch on IMSA.TV and in the US you can watch the race on Peacock
Also of note Taylor Hagler will be competing in the Michelin Pilot Challenge race. A series she is already a two time champion in.

Sometimes I feel stupid for not knowing what’s going on during endurance races but then I remember half of the time not even the commentators know what’s going on-
