Why Romain Grosjean and Myers Riley's Rolex 24 Ended in Heartbreak

What happens when a dynasty team, led by minds that have won 20 Rolex 24 races, sees their Daytona dream end… without all four drivers even getting in the car?

At the 2026 Rolex 24 at Daytona, Myers Riley arrived with a stacked lineup – Romain Grosjean, Sheena Monk, Felipe Fraga, and Jenson Altzman – and a car fast enough to charge 11 positions up the field.

But despite all the testing, all the preparation, and all the team building, in one brutal moment it all came undone. Contact with the #75 Mercedes snapped the steering rack and turned a 24-hour push for the podium into heartbreak in the garage.
