| Track | Class | Sessions | Typical gap to class best | Closest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta (2.54 mi) | SM | 5 | +8.159s (7.98%) | +6.638s (6.48%) |
Gap is the driver's best lap in a session against the fastest lap in their class in that same session (zero is fastest in class), shown as time lost and as a share of the lap, so conditions cancel out and tracks can be compared. Typical is the median session.
