Ben Keating did what he had to do and got it done at Motul Petit Le Mans, securing the LMP2 driver’s title in the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, along with taking the Team’s title for PR1 Mathiasen Motorsports. Ben, along with season long co-driver Paul-Loiup Chatin showed speed and consistency all season long in securing the title. Things got off to a blistering start at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta when Keating put his ORECA on pole on the final lap of qualifying and followed up with a podium finish to secure the championship.
We look forward to following Ben as he moves to United Autosports for the 2024 season.
Jack Webster has been shooting motorsports since the early 1970’s, covering Formula One, CanAm, F5000, TransAm, GrandAm and American Le Mans races, among others. In addition to his photography, he has also worked on racing teams, both in IMSA and IndyCar, so has a complete knowledge of the inner workings of motorsport. Both his photography and writing can be seen here on racingnation.com. Eddie LePine has been involved in motorsports for over 30 years as photographer, columnist, and driver. Eddie also is now a retired racer (well, retired unless a good ride pops up). You can usually find Eddie in the paddock area, deep in conversation with a driver.
