Welcome the dawn, welcome Sunday. Happy Father's Day! Unfortunately it wasn't such a welcome start to the final day of racing for Oak Racing as their No.15 Pescarolo Judd LM P1 was retired. Audi reign supreme in 1-2-4-5 with the No.12 Rebellion Racing car being the only one to spoil a clean sweep...so far. In LM P2 the No.49 Pecom Racing car has risen to second place in class behind the No.44 Starworks HPD.
Despite a puncture, the No.59 Luxury Racing Ferrari has held onto second place in GTE Pro behind the No.51 AF Corse Ferrari. In GTE Am, the Porsche of IMSA Performance Matmut has regained the lead from the Larbre Corvette, and it is the Krohn Ferrari which is holding onto third place.
