C. Sorensen becomes youngest Formula DRIFT winner at IRP

Formula DRIFT's Link ECU PROSPEC series drivers had to contend with changing track conditions as light rain affected the level of grip in the latter stages of Friday night's competition at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park.

After claiming his first podium in Round 2, and overcoming the challenges of learning a new track, 14 year-old Camren Sorensen secured his first FD victory and became the youngest winner in the series’ 23-year history.

Sorensen beat Kelsey Rowlings in the Top 32, had a bye run through the Top 16 before defeating sister Amanda Sorensen in the Top 8 heats after she lost her BMW’s supercharger drive belt. Camren then won his Top 4 heat after Jerry Johnson had power steering trouble in the Freedom Machinery C6 Corvette.

In the Final, Jason Webb fought hard but two of the three judges voted in favor of Camren for the win. He jumps from sixth to third in the title race, only 10 points behind leader Dmitriy Brutskiy.

Webb, who placed second in Round 1 and fifth in Round 2, remains second in the title race by a reduced margin. He also leads the 2026 PROSPEC Rookie title chase.

Double PROSPEC champion Brutskiy arrived at Round 3 in first place after finishing third in Atlanta and winning in Connecticut. He lost to Webb in the semi-finals after a small mistake in Zone 5 dropped him out of contention. However, he remains in in the lead after securing his third podium result.

Johnson placed fourth and rose from 10th to fifth overall.
