Driver Insight: “Sebring is one of the hardest race tracks in North America. It’s extremely challenging and it’s a very old surface, very bumpy. It was an airport some years ago and has never been resurfaced and some of the biggest teams in sports car racing come here to test because it really tests the durability, strength and chassis of your race car. It’s a very challenging track and in a lot of ways more difficult than the Daytona 24 but it’s half the length, 12 hours around here is very punishing on the driver and very punishing on the car.” – Eric Curran, No. 31 Action Express Racing Cadillac DPi-V.R
