Dries Vanthoor secured his 4th consecutive pole position this year in the IMSA GTP class for this weekends race at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. Despite finishing on pole every race this year the BMW side hasn’t figured out how to convert those pole positions into wins. Felipe Nasr of Penske Porsche has brought home wins in every race thus far in 2025. Vanthoors commented on the feat but clearly wishes the team could have done more with their finishes in the main races.
“For sure I’m very happy to have four consecutive poles,” said Vanthoor. “A bit sad that I don’t have any wins out of them, but we have a chance now to make that happen tomorrow. It’s important that we put that behind us and come away from here answering a different question than: ‘When are we going to win?’ We’re very motivated and we are going to push hard tomorrow in every area and every aspect. Hopefully we will get the result we deserve.”
