This Female Driver Just Made American Racing History
With a 32-point lead coming into Petit Le Mans, all Christina Nielsen
needed to do was meet her minimum drive time at the Petit season ender
today to become the first woman to win a major present-day North
American endurance championship. All we have to say is: it’s about
time, and it couldn’t happen to a better person.
Nielsen barely missed the milestone last year, missing the GTD-class
title in the then-named IMSA Tudor United Sports Car Championship by
only two points during the Petit Le Mans season ender. It was her first
full-time season in IMSA’s top-level endurance series, and she still
finished second in the championship.
