Meet Ben Barnicoat, one of the new drivers on the Lexus IMSA program for the Vasser Sullivan team. We’re going to learn how much fun the team is; the balance of having fun but knowing when it’s time to go to battle; how Barnicoat ended up on the Lexus radar for an IMSA seat; if it’s been everything he expected this season; being a former McLaren driver; doing sim work for Mercedes; being a teammate and sharing an apartment with Jack Hawksworth; not knowing Jack until now but growing up not far from each other; following his dad into racing; racing life in the U.K. and the recognizable names Barnicoat competed with; if F1 or open wheel was the original dream; the adjustment from open wheel to sports cars; getting used to having a roof over his head; the process of a driver change during a race; competing in the GTD Pro category; the skill set to be a road racer; the worst driving conditions to deal with; experience of racing full-time in the United States; a breakdown of the season with one race to go.
