Post-race

Ricky Taylor expressed his disappointment after crashing out on the penultimate lap: "I’m very sorry for Acura, HPD and the WTRAndretti team. With the reviousAcura ARX-05, this was always the track where we had the most performance deficit to the field. It just says so much about Acura, HPD, ORECA and Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti Autosport to turn our weakest track into our strongest track ith the new Acura ARX-06 Unfortunately, we got behind with a little issue mid race, but we had such a strong car while fighting back. It came down so close in the end, if we had more time maybe I would have been more patient, but we just wanted to win this for Acura. Everyone at Acura, HPD and Wayne Taylor Racing with Andretti Autosport deserved to win this today and it’s just disappointing, but I’m just so proud to drive an Acura and be part of this team." Jaminet admitted he saw Taylor's overtake attempt happening: "I kind of saw it coming. He had fresher tires and I got held up in traffic the lap before. It was two to go and he went for us. I braked very late and I just saw he was going and if he could make it stop I’d be impressed." Hawksworth described the No. 14 Lexus victory in GTD Pro as a "perfect weekend": "One of the best-executed races we’ve been a part of. It was good to clear Sorensen off the start, and that put our Lexus RC F GT3 up at the front. Had an amazing pit stop and then Ben drove his tail off from there." De Angelis admitted the No. 27 Aston Martin couldn't keep pace with the GTD class winning No. 1 BMW: "We just didn’t have the pace of the BMW. We are looking long term and want to win the championship. I’m still disappointed we didn’t win the race today, but we still have to be happy for good points." As a result of winning the race, Tandy and Jaminet advanced from fifth to first in the GTP Drivers' Championship. In GTD Pro, Barnicoat and Hawksworth moved to first after being second coming into Long Beach. In the GTD Drivers' Championship, De Angelis and Sørensen advanced from fifth to second while Iribe and Millroy dropped from first to fourth. Additionally, Foley and Gallagher jumped from eighth to fifth. Cadillac continued to top their respective Manufacturers' Championship while Lexus took the lead of the GTD Pro Manufacturers' Championship while BMW took the lead of the GTD Manufacturers' Championship. Porsche Penske Motorsport, Vasser Sullivan Racing, and Paul Miller Racing took the lead in the trio of Teams' Championships with eight races left in the season.
