After dominating the weekend at Road America, Kellymoss’ Porsche Carrera Cup North America championship leader Loek Hartog repeated the result with a pair of wins at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Today’s victory was the Dutchman’s seventh from 11 races contested so far in the 2024 season. Hartog led into turn one on the opening lap and was never headed throughout the 40-minute journey.

After the championship completed its first caution-free race of the season yesterday, the Porsche Carrera Cup North America field again went flag to flag today without major incident or race stoppage in today’s event presented by OnlyGolfers.

After finishing third yesterday, JDX Racing’s Alex Sedgwick went one better today to finish second behind Hartog. Former Champ Car driver and Indianapolis-based Brit Dan Clarke (ERA Motorsport) completed the podium in third place.

Jimmy Llibre (ACI Motorsports), Ryan Yardley (Topp Racing), and Elias de la Torre (JDX Racing) completed the top six.

“Coming into Indy, I didn’t expect to get two more wins. I’m extremely happy with a pair of victories with the fastest lap plus two pole positions,” Hartog said.

“Alex (Sedgwick) made it very difficult for me in the beginning to pull away, but I knew I had a strong car for the end of the race, so I managed to have a very consistent race like yesterday and got the win.

“I couldn’t see anyone in my mirror, so that’s a good sign. I can’t wait for Road Atlanta; that’s going to be the next one, and it’s also the one I’m looking most forward to.”

Today, the Pro-Am battle at Indianapolis started with an inter-team fight between yesterday’s winner, Alan Metni, and his teammate, Jordan Wallace.

Wallace held the top spot early in the race, but Metni was able to find his way past to complete the weekend sweep. Marco Cirone (ACI Motorsports) joined Metni and Wallace on the podium.

“The battle with Jordan was a lot of fun—a lot of clean, fun racing,” Metni said.

“We’ve had good pace all year, but we haven’t been able to put it together. We finally did this weekend, and it was an awesome result – let’s see if we can do it again next time.”

“In regards to the championship, I’m not sure where we are now with the way you drop the lowest races. It makes it complicated. All I know is if I win everything from here, I’ll end the season happy. So that’s my goal.”

After a post-race penalty took away a potential win yesterday for Richard Edge, the ACI Motorsports racer made amends today to earn his first victory at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Edge was penalized yesterday for track limit infractions, but he was unable to heed the warnings due to a radio issue.

“Yesterday, we had some tough luck. My radio went out, so I didn’t hear the track limit warnings, which cost me 10 seconds,” Edge said.

“So that was a tough day, but I focused today, got a good start, and then worked on hitting my marks and keeping the guys behind me.

“Overall, I’m happy. It was awesome. It was a better day for the team than yesterday. I’m really proud of everybody and happy with the win.”

Edge’s teammate and Masters championship leader Matt Halcome finished second, with yesterday’s class winner Scott Blind (Ruckus Racing) across the line in third place.

After 12 races, the Porsche Carrera Cup North America heads into its final stretch with four remaining races—two at Road Atlanta and the final pair at the US Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas on October 18-20.
