Promising young driver Connor Zilisch's plans to participate in the World Endurance Championship rookie test in Bahrain have been canceled due to a technicality involving racing license points. Despite his strong background in sports car racing, including an LMP two class victory at the Rolex twenty-four Hours of Daytona, he fell short of the required FIA A license points needed to drive a Hypercar. Zilisch, who finished second in the NASCAR Xfinity Series championship race, is still eligible to drive a GTP car and hopes to make an appearance at the IMSA test at Daytona International Speedway, with the goal of driving a GTP car in the two thousand twenty-six Rolex twenty-four Hours at Daytona.
