Allan McNish, Dindo Capello, and Tom Kristensen snagged the overall honors at the MOBIL 1 12 Hours of Sebring in their No. 2 Audi R15 TDI earlier today. The team lead the field eight times throughout the event, registering in the first position for 155 of the total 383 laps. The fastest qualifying P1 entry – the No. 66 Acura of Gil de Ferran, Simon Pagenaud, and Scott Dixon, suffered from mechanical problems, forcing them to complete only 246 laps.

Only one P2 class entry remained on the track as the checkered flag waved, bringing the No. 15 Lowe’s Acura of Luis Diaz and Adrian Fernandez to their first class win of the year. Despite being the only P2 left in the race, the team continued their hard charge right up until the final moments of the race, turning their fastest lap of the event with just one to go.

With only one team entered in GT1, the two sister Corvette C6Rs were racing for little more than team bragging rights. In the end, the No. 3 machine driven by Jan Magnussen, Johnny O’Connell, and Antonio Garcia, edged out the No. 4 entry piloted by Oliver Gavin, Olivier Beretta, and Marcel Fässler. Both teams finished in an impressive 6th and 7th overall.

GT2 saw 13 cars start the race, allowing for some serious competition throughout the day. In the end, the No. 62 Ferrari 430 GT of Mika Salo, Pierre Kaffer, and Jaime Melo, celebrated their victory coming to the line two laps ahead of their closest competitors – the No. 95 Ferrari of Gianmaria Bruni, Mathias Russo, and Luis Companc.
