Conquest Racing/JMF Motorsport’s Jesse Webb and Michai Stephens claimed overall victory in Sunday’s Pirelli GT4 America season finale at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, while the Nolasport duo of Jason Hart and Matt Travis picked up the Pro-Am class title.

Webb carved his way through the field to take a commanding victory in his No. 34 Mercedes-AMG GT4, despite having a 4.3-second post race time penalty added due to having a short pit stop.

The Canadian driver finished 11.633 seconds ahead of the Pro-Am class-winning No. 68 Smooge Racing Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO of Kevin Conway and Aaron Telitz, following a late-race pass by Conway on the overall pole-sitting No. 24 The Heart of Racing Aston Martin Vantage GT4 of Gray Newell.

Newell and Roman De Angelis came home fifth overall and third in class, behind the two ACI Motorsports Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsports that were third and fourth at the line.

An eighth place overall finish for Travis, meanwhile, was enough to give he and Hart the Pro-Am championship ahead of the No. 82 BimmerWorld BMW M4 GT4 of James Walker Jr. and Tyler McQuarrie, which came home one position behind in ninth.

Walker Jr. and McQuarrie entered Race 2 with a 1-point lead in the championship but started from 17th on the grid and was unable to make any significant gains on Nolasport, which claimed its third consecutive class title.

It also marked Hart’s third straight championship as a driver.

The Heart of Racing’s Hannah Grisham and Rianna O’Meara-Hunt, meanwhile, swept the weekend in the Am class, thanks to a Grisham’s late move on Nick Shanny for the victory in its category.

RESULTS: Race 2
