This weekend, teams were undertaking the Sebring winter test at the Sebring International Raceway and will resume similar testing on Tuesday at the Daytona International Speedway. <\/p>\n<p>The season will begin with the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona on January 23rd, the cars have a few more weeks to complete the winter tests. The Daytona race has always been a major points setter for the teams as seen in the former American Le Mans Series and with the current mood, there is more effort being applied by each team.  As you may remember, Aston Martin dropped one car from FIAWEC in September; which after the American round was left in the US to prepare for the USCC season debut. <\/p>\r\n<div

But Daytona is going to be quite interesting. We haven\u2019t run a GT car there, so we\u2019ve got to learn a lot, quickly. Two days isn\u2019t very long, so we\u2019ve got to maximize it with Michelin and get the tires to work.
