MONTEREY, Calif. — Round six of the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by BFGoodrich Tires was a fairytale for Aaron Jeansonne as he converted his pole position into a dramatic breakthrough victory on Sunday. Jeansonne was joined on the podium by teammate and defending series champion Jared Thomas and Selin Rollan. It was just enough time for Saturday’s race winner Connor Zilisch to snag the lead from Jeansonne. “I was tired of reading about how I haven’t won yet!” said Jeansonne. “It was a weird race with the delay and the fog, so we started later than what we were supposed to,” Jeansonne said. “I’m going to fight him to the death because that is what is going to making him a better race car driver,” said Thomas. “The race was good and I’m happy to be on the podium, it’s my first podium (of the year),” said Rollan.
