Only one driver here this weekend has won at Le Mans, Sebring and Daytona. That driver is Timo Bernhard. 

The Porsche factory contracted driver, who is likely to drive the new Porsche LM P1 in 2014, drove here for Audi from 2009 to 2011, he won here in 2010 with Romain Dumas and Mike Rockenfeller (who is not here this weekend). He won at Sebring in 2008 with Dumas and at Daytona for Porsche in 2003. Dumas and Bernhard have also won at the "Green Hell" of the Nurburgring 24 Hours on 4 occasions. Bernhard missed the race last year because he was still recovering from a back injury he sustained at Sebring in March 2012.Dumas drives the 991 Porsche here this weekend.

Christope Bouchot has won at Sebring and in the Nurburgring 24 Hours but a win at Daytona has so far eluded him, he was successful here as far back as 1993 with Peugeot. Alexander Wurz has won twice here and at Sebring with Anthony Davidson. These two drivers are the only non-Audi drivers racing here this weekend to have multiple international endurance victories. The Ingolstadt  manufacturer has dominated worldwide endurance racing over the last decade to such an extent that their drivers here have over 30 wins in endurance classics world wide.

Amazingly Stephane Sarrazin has never won Le Mans, although he has been on pole 3 times, and has won at Sebring and at Spa.

The famous Dane Tom Kristensen holds the record with wins here with eight, he also has six wins at Daytona whilst Allan McNish has four there. Marcel Fassler and Benoit Treluyer who have won here for the last 2 years with Andre Lotterer won earlier this year at Sebring but have yet to win at Daytona.
