As the new year dawns, so does a fresh chapter for the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, kicking off its 2024 journey with the 62nd edition of the Rolex 24 at Daytona. This round-the-clock race is a test of endurance and skill, set in the esteemed Daytona International Speedway in Florida, a track that’s been home to this event since 1966, though, let’s not forget the one-off in 1972 when it was trimmed down to just six hours.
The weekend is set to be a showcase of speed and strategy, as each class of cars flexes its muscles through practice sessions and the actual race on both Friday and Saturday. But before that, let’s take a look at where viewers can watch the highly-anticipated event.
