Berg Racing Impressive Weekend at Road America

Drivers Drew Szuch and Harbir Dass Showing Resilience And Speed Through a Mix of Highs and Setbacks

Setting fast times in practice sessions, Drew Szuch started strong with a first-place finish in Race 1. Race 2 brought a challenge when he was hit by another racer whilst running in second, which resulted in an 11th-place finish. Thanks to the crew’s hard work, Drew’s car was repaired in record time, enabling him to return to form with another first-place victory in Race 3. “Coming away with two wins feels good,” Drew said. “The team absolutely deserved it, and I’m glad I could do my part. The guys did an awesome job of fixing the car after Race 2 in time for Race 3. We’re making progress in the championship and are already looking forward to Mid-Ohio. Let’s stay resilient and keep going!”

Harbir Dass showed a strong pace throughout the weekend despite being out of the car for a while before the race. He earned two third-place finishes and a seventh-place result after being hit off track in Race 3. “It was a great weekend overall,” Harbir said. “It took me a couple of sessions to get back in the groove, but we had a good pace. The tight finish in Race 1, where I finished 3rd, was a highlight. I’m still pushing for my first win and hoping it will be at Mid-Ohio.”

 

BERG RACING’s crew played a crucial role, especially after Drew’s collision in Race 2. Their rapid repairs not only enabled Drew to start the race but additionally gave Drew a car that could bring home a victory in Race 3. Team Owner Allen Berg echoed Drew’s sentiments, praising the crew for their commitment and efficiency. “It’s moments like this that define a team,” Allen stated. “Our crew worked under an extremely tight timeframe to repair the car and put forward a race-winning racecar. It’s all about coming together when challenges arise, and that’s exactly what we did this weekend.”
Driver Coach Alex Berg also emphasized the importance of preparation and adaptability. “Racing is a team sport, and it’s not just about the drivers on the track. The work our crew did behind the scenes is a testament to their professionalism and passion for the sport. It was a true team effort, and it’s always rewarding to see the results on the track.”

Following Road America, Drew lies 2nd and Harbir 4th in the Ligier JFC Drivers Championship points standings. BERG RACING is currently 2nd in the Teams Championship, just half a point behind the leader.
“We’re very proud of the progress we’ve made,” said Allen Berg. “Our drivers are performing well, and the team is working hard to keep everything in top shape. We know there’s still a long way to go this season and we are focused on maintaining this momentum and continually improving our team.” The team now sets its sights on the upcoming Mid-Ohio race, June 19–22, where every point will count in the tight championship battle.
