For Nick Yelloly, the departure of David Salters is deeply personal.
When the Briton made the decision to step away from BMW at the end of the 2024 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season, he didn't rely on agents or other intermediaries. He picked up the phone and dialed Salters directly. That open line of communication laid the groundwork for Yelloly’s move to Acura and built a relationship grounded in mutual trust – making the recent executive shift at Honda Racing Corporation USA (HRC USA) hit especially close to home.
