Mike Conway:
"P3 at the Rolex 24 at Daytona! It was a tense finish with the Mercedes and Corvette for the victory but unfortunately, we didn't have the speed to keep them behind. A huge thank you to all of the team at Lexus Racing USA and Vasser Sullivan; and of course my teammates Ben and Jack - everyone did such a fantastic job these last two weeks and I'm proud to have been a part of it!"
