He's pretty damn good. Love that his right blinker was on the entire time for his last stints.

It feels that there is something right with the world when a Le Mans prototype wins at Sebring. Definitely in the mood for Silverstone in 4 weeks time!


Again, how much the series has improved since Sebring 12 hours.

So the #4 Corvette crew have won LM (last year), Daytona & Sebring (this year), that's some achievement.

And perhaps more incredibly, the winning Ligier JSP2 chassis could do the Triple Crown if MSR win Le Mans this year.

Wonder if they will try and do Watkins and/or Petit now that they have won the first two. You know, so they can win their own trophy!

Mazda finishes on lead lap!!!!!!

Extremely impressed with ESM and Derani, a great call to take those tires and Derani able to take full advantage with the braking. Maybe they'll think about coming back a couple more times this year

Congrats to Corvette Racing for sweeping Florida too! Really dominant drives both times.

Scuderia Corsa and CORE did well to survive all this and win GTD and PC. The rain definitely made things messy in the first half of the race, but a fantastic last hour to finish it.

Really good race, I don´t even remember the red flag.

Derani is becoming a LMP star. I´m especially happy for Ed Brown, he has put so much into sportscar racing and now is paying off with this 2 overall victories. Will they succeed in the WEC too?

Corvette GTE team are endurance kings, last year Daytona, Sebring and Le Mans. This year they can repeat that achievement, absolutely magnificent.

The 488 wins in its debut I think, I don´t remember them in Bathurst or any other GT3 race.

Even with the updates the PC had too many incidents, even with experienced pro drivers like Engel. This class needs a rethink.

I think ESM will kick some butt in WEC this year.

ESM is back to their past form. I feel the WEC has helped them get back to this level. Great job. Corvette Racing, amazing effort as always.

Cause I've never been close to this, I thought I'd let everyone know that I picked 3 of the 4 class winners. The question would be; why would've I NOT picked the #2 and Derani?!

Man, Derani is crazy good. Factory drive is surely in his future, made shap and Van Overbeek look like gentlemen drivers.
