The Swedish ace, who clinched the 2022 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar championship with Oliver Jarvis earlier this month driving a Meyer Shank Racing Acura ARX-05, bounced back from a spin to deliver a 52.7085sec lap of the Sebring International Raceway’s 1.7-mile short course to head the times by 0.3303sec. His time came on the 75th of 90 total laps.
Blomqvist’s top time left him 0.3303sec ahead of multiple Formula 2 race winner Juri Vips in the Rahal Letterman Lanigan-Honda who turned a deeply impressive 155 laps, setting his best time on his 33rd lap.
