Hannah Greenemeier has joined The Heart of Racing’s Pirelli GT4 America program, teaming up with the returning Hannah Grisham in the No. 26 Aston Martin Vantage GT4.
Greenmeier, who was the first female driver to win the X-30 ProTour championship class in the history of SKUSA in 2021, replaces Rianna O’Meara-Hunt in the all-female lineup for the upcoming season.
“Getting a call from the team to join the Heart of Racing for the 2024 season was probably the best day of my life so far,” said Greenemeier.
“To be able to drive for a team that has had so much success means so much to me and my family.
“I’m looking forward to getting the season started with the team in April at Sonoma.
“I know that I have a lot to learn about sports car racing, but I know that with the help of my co-driver, Hannah Grisham, and everyone else on the team that I will get up to speed quickly.
“I can’t thank Gabe, the Bernier family, Ian, Paul and everyone on the team for this incredible opportunity.”
Greenmeier and Grisham completed their first test as co-drivers last week at APEX Motor Club in Arizona.
“I am looking forward to this season with a year under my belt and a more solid foundation to stand on,” Grisham said.
“Year number one has taken me to most of the tracks, helped me to understand my competition, and have a better grasp of our Aston Martin Vantage.
“My goal for this year is to have strong, consistent finishes and hopefully be in a spot towards the end of the year to fight for the championship.
“I think Hannah Greenemeier and I are capable of this and I’m eager to get to work with her in April at Sonoma.”
The team will continue as a two-car GT4 America operation with Roman De Angelis back alongside Gray Newell in the second Vantage GT4.
“I’m super happy to be back again with Gray competing in the GT4 Pro-Am class with the Heart of Racing,” said De Angelis.
“I really enjoyed my time there last year and being teamed up again with Gray who continues to get faster every weekend leaves us with another good shot at race wins and hopefully a Pro-Am championship.”
Newell, meanwhile, will again undertake a season of GT America powered by AWS, also with the Ian James-led team.
