▬▬ Event Description ▬▬
With eight races in the books and six more to go, the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by BFGoodrich® Tires Championship is coming into focus. Rounds 9 and 10 at Wisconsin’s Road America might be where the 2023 title favorites make themselves known.

The Mazda MX-5 Cup points lead bounced around amongst several drivers early in the season, but now Aaron Jeansonne (No. 24 JTR Motorsports Engineering) seems to have a firm hold on the top spot. Jeansonne earned his first-ever race win at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca in May and backed it up with another win at Watkins Glen International in June. He is hoping to continue this momentum at Road America where his best finish to-date is fourth.

Drafting is the name of the game at Road America. At 4.048 miles, it is the longest track on the MX-5 Cup schedule and features three long straights. The draft is so powerful that it’s not uncommon to see a car drop five positions or more on a single straight. Nowhere is this more evident than the final turn, leading uphill to the start/finish line and then into Turn One. It has created numerous photo-finishes. In fact, in the 12 most recent MX-5 Cup races at Road America, only two had a margin of victory of more than one second.

Both race rounds at Road America take place Saturday, August 5. The first is at 9:15 AM CT and the second at 2:45 PM CT. Both will be streamed live on RACER.com.

Livestreams are produced by NASCAR Productions and feature play-by-play commentary from IMSA Radio squad John Hindhaugh and Shea Adam.
