Calado and Austin Cindric are among the numerous additions to the grid for next week's third round of the IMSA iRacing Pro Invitational Series season at the virtual Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, sportscar365.com reports.

GT Le Mans pit box qualifying saw all seven cars fall within half a second of the benchmark set by Calado in the No. 62 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo. The Risi Competizione Ferrari driver's 1:42.685 flyer pipped Porsche ace Nick Tandy by 0.001 seconds and established a new fastest lap of the weekend in the process, sportscar365.com reports.

Calado, Alessandro Pier Guidi and Daniel Serra claimed GT Le Mans class honors for the returning Risi Competizione outfit at Motul Petit Le Mans.
