In the end Daytona came down to fuel management, experienced drivers avoiding disaster while lapping slower cars, and surprisingly some young but clearly talented newcomers. The 17-year-old Connor Zilisch and 23-year-old Christian Rasmussen driving with Ryan Dalziel and Dwight Merriman won LMP2 in the No. 18 Era Motorsport ORECA LMP2 07. Zilisch has signed a contract as a development driver for NASCAR’s Trackhouse Racing. Rasmussen will run the road races on the 2024 IndyCar schedule for Ed Carpenter Racing.
