BOWMANVILLE, Ontario (July 10, 2025) – With both entries showing strong pace at Watkins Glen and the No. 48 car securing a breakthrough win, Paul Miller Racing heads to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (CTMP) eager to build on that progress as they enter the second half of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season.
This weekend’s Chevrolet Grand Prix marks Round 6 of the GTD Pro championship and brings the team to one of the calendar’s fastest and most demanding circuits.
The high-speed 2.459-mile, 10-turn layout near Toronto presents a marked contrast to the previous round’s strategy-heavy, mixed-weather endurance format – placing greater emphasis on precision, rhythm, and confidence on the edge.
With fewer pit stops and less time to recover, qualifying performance will be critical in securing track position and stay in contention throughout the 2-hour, 40-minute sprint.
The No. 1 BMW M4 GT3 EVO pairing of Madison Snow and Neil Verhagen delivered a competitive drive at Watkins Glen but was denied a potential podium after an unfortunate penalty late in the race.
Despite that setback, the car remains in striking distance in the GTD PRO standings, currently eighth with 1,353 points.
Meanwhile, teammates Dan Harper and Max Hesse made a statement in the No. 48 BMW, recovering from an early drive-through penalty to take the checkered flag first – scoring both their and the team’s first win of the 2025 season.
That result catapulted them to fifth in the championship standings with 1,510 points, just 122 markers behind the current leaders
Canadian Tire Motorsport Park was the site of Paul Miller Racing’s victory in 2023, and the team returns this year with proven speed and strong momentum. The demanding layout will test the team’s adaptability and endurance as they aim for continued success.
With two cars in GTD PRO and championship implications on the line, the focus will be on execution, maximizing pit strategy, and translating practice and qualifying pace into Sunday results.
