2024 Petit LeMans Article and photos by Steve Tenney As the 2024 IMSA WeatherTech season finishes with the 10-hour Petit LeMans at Road Atlanta, preceding it was the 6-hour Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis. Both finishing races were 50 pluscar large-grid events with GTP, LMP2 and the GTs. The Indianapolis race was significant because the 6-hour race was the first win for BMW Team RLL and the BMW M Hybrid V8. Not only did the #24 BMW GTP car win for the first time, but the #25 car finished in second. After six hours the two BMWs were at the front. So, with this success we moved on to one of the more iconic races on the schedule, Petit LeMans. January I February 2025 19
