SUMMARY:TireRack.com Battle on The Bricks 2026
DESCRIPTION:The 2026 TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway delivered another outstanding performance from Action Express Racing\, with the No. 31 Cadillac Whelen V-Series.R finishing second overall after leading deep into the closing stages of the race. \nReturning to Indianapolis as the defending winners\, Jack Aitken and Earl Bamber arrived with the No. 31 leading the GTP championship and looking to build on an exceptionally consistent 2026 campaign. This year’s Battle on the Bricks adopted a shorter two-hour\, 40-minute format\, placing even greater emphasis on outright pace\, track position and flawless execution. \nThroughout the race\, the Action Express Racing crew kept the Cadillac firmly in contention. Following the final round of pit stops and a restart with 48 minutes remaining\, Bamber emerged at the head of the GTP field and began an intense battle with the No. 24 BMW M Hybrid V8 of Sheldon van der Linde. As the pair negotiated heavy GT traffic\, the gap repeatedly compressed to just fractions of a second. \nBamber defended strongly under sustained pressure\, balancing the opportunity for another Indianapolis victory against the importance of protecting the team’s championship position. With less than six minutes remaining\, van der Linde used traffic to make his move\, passing the Cadillac as the leaders worked their way through a GTD PRO battle. \nThe No. 31 crossed the famous Yard of Bricks second overall\, just 2.926 seconds behind the winner\, securing another significant haul of championship points after 112 laps of competition. \nAlthough narrowly denied consecutive Indianapolis victories\, the performance demonstrated once again the consistency and competitiveness that have defined Action Express Racing’s season. The Cadillac possessed the speed to lead and challenge for victory\, the crew executed under pressure\, and the drivers maximized the opportunity without compromising the larger championship objective. \nMost importantly\, the runner-up finish sent the No. 31 into the season-ending Motul Petit Le Mans with Jack Aitken holding a 147-point advantage in the GTP Drivers’ Championship. After winning at Indianapolis in 2025\, returning twelve months later as championship leaders and fighting for victory until the closing minutes represented another impressive chapter in the No. 31 program’s remarkable run of form.

SUMMARY:Motul Petit Le Mans 2026
DESCRIPTION:Action Express Racing has long been a contender at Road Atlanta\, one of the premier endurance rounds on the IMSA schedule. The 10-hour Motul Petit Le Mans presents a stern test of speed\, strategy and reliability around the 2.54-mile Georgia road course\, mixing long straights with technical esses. Over the years\, Action Express fielded competitive prototypes that frequently ran up front and battled through multi-class traffic\, showcasing consistency and an ability to adapt to changing track conditions. \nThe pinnacle of their Road Atlanta history came in 2025\, when the No. 31 Whelen Cadillac V-Series.R – piloted by Jack Aitken\, Earl Bamber and Frederik Vesti – delivered a commanding performance at Petit Le Mans. After strong pace throughout the race and tactical execution across multiple pit windows\, the trio led much of the event and crossed the line to secure the overall win by a comfortable margin. This victory marked Cadillac’s fifth Petit Le Mans triumph and capped Action Express’s season on a major high\, demonstrating the team’s endurance racing expertise and commitment to excellence.
