Dudu Barrichello to end ‘fun year’ in IMSA with outside chance at GTD title

Eduardo ‘Dudu’ Barrichello didn’t come into his first full season in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship with any expectations, but is right in the mix for silverware.

The Brazilian, piloting the #27 Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Evo for Heart of Racing, put together a strong early campaign with three podiums – including two runner-up results – in his opening four races to sit atop the GTD championship standings. It’s been a struggle since, however, with no top three finishes since early May and that led to a slide.
