The RC F's dominated the entire GTD class in Daytona today. Great showing from them.
Also, the LC500 was actually the safety car for this weekend too!
The #14 Lexus RC F GT3 driven by Jack Hawksworth & Aaron Telitz won this week’s IMSA race at Sebring International Raceway for their second consecutive victory.
Saturday night’s victory is the fourth for the AIM VASSER SULLIVAN racing team in IMSA competition and the second of the season for the #14 Lexus after scoring two wins in 2019. It marks the fifth career IMSA win for Hawksworth and his fourth behind the wheel of the Lexus RC F GT3. The back-to-back wins are the first career IMSA triumphs for Telitz who took over full-time driver duties earlier this month.
This puts the #14 team in a strong position to finish first in the IMSA Sprint Cup championship, with a 12 point lead over the second place #12 Lexus RC F GT3 team of Townsend Bell & Frankie Montecalvo.

In case anyone is a gamer, the Lexus RC-F GT3 is available to drive in Assetto Corsa Competizione that has recently been released for consoles. The game needs some more updating as it's got a few issues right now but the Lexus is great to drive.
