The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship racing weekend at Virginia International Raceway starts on Saturday August 27th
The IMSA SportsCar Championship, currently known as the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship under sponsorship, is a sports car racing series based in the United States and Canada and organized by the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA). It is a result of a merger between two existing North American sports car racing series, the American Le Mans Series and Rolex Sports Car Series. At its inception, the name was United SportsCar Championship, which subsequently changed to IMSA SportsCar Championship in 2016. Rolex SA’s Tudor brand was the championship’s title sponsor in 2014 and 2015, and since 2016 WeatherTech has served as title sponsor.
The 2022 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship is the 52nd racing season sanctioned by the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), which traces its lineage back to the 1971 IMSA GT Championship. It is also the ninth season of the IMSA SportsCar Championship since the merger between the American Le Mans Series and the Rolex Sports Car Series in 2014, and the seventh under the sponsorship of WeatherTech. The series started on January 27, 2022, for the 24 Hours of Daytona, and is scheduled to conclude on October 1, 2022, for the Petit Le Mans across 12 races.
