Fast and efficient was the key to success at the Grand Prix of Mosport as the Prototype race winning Muscle Milk Aston Martin and the GT winning Corvette Racing paired their victories on the track with wins in the MICHELIN® GREEN X® Challenge.

The win was the third consecutive victory in America’s premier environmental motorsports competition for the Benicia, Calif. based Muscle Milk Aston Martin team.

“Our Muscle Milk team believes very much in being fast, clean, and efficient and we are very proud to earn the MICHELIN® GREEN X® Challenge once again,” said winning co-driver Klaus Graf. “Taking wins in both the race and the MICHELIN GREEN X Challenge means a lot to us.”

Being fast, clean, and efficient also paid off for Corvette Racing, winners of the fiercely contested GT category on the track and in the MICHELIN GREEN X Challenge

“As the inaugural winner of the MICHELIN® GREEN X® Challenge, it’s always an honor when Corvette Racing collects one of the awards. It is a testament to how hard our engine group, our chassis group, and our aero group have worked to maximize the efficiency of the Corvette,” said Corvette Racing program manager Doug Fehan.

Overseen by the Green Racing steering team comprised of representatives of the U.S. Department of Energy, the Environmental Protection Agency, and SAE International.
