Meyer Shank Racing’s #60 Acura ARX-06 won Chevrolet Grand Prix at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park.

Tom Blomqvist and Colin Braun become the first repeat winners in the GTP class this year.

The race saw three full-course cautions in the final 75 minutes.

The #60 Acura led for the first 75 minutes of the race until the first full course caution at lap 69 occurred.

Braun dropped to third behind the #10 Wayne Taylor Racing Acura of Filipe Albuquerque and the #31 Action Express Racing Cadillac V-Series. R of Alexander Sims due to a slow pit stop.

The #10 Acura seemed poised for victory but lost the lead to the #60 Acura when the second full-course yellow of the day came out.

Garcia took the lead with 68 minutes to go when the #9 Pfaff Motorsports Porsche 911 GT3 R and the #14 Vasser Sullivan Lexus RC F GT3 went off-course at the first turn.

The #9 Porsche was able to continue on and finished second, while the #14 Lexus saw its podium chances end when it went behind the wall for 20 laps due to overheating problems.
