With 9 hours completed of the 10 hour race

In GTD PRO, the No. 4 Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports Z06 GT3.R of Nico Varrone was leading at the interval, but is off-sequence, and will make its pit stop soon, handing the lead back to the dominant No. 48 Paul Miller Racing BMW M4 GT3 EVO.

Dan Harper is continuing where co-driver Max Hesse left off before him, with the No. 14 Vasser Sullivan Racing Lexus RC F GT3 of Kyle Kirkwood in third, taking over from Ben Barnicoat.

The battle for the championship between the No. 3 Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports Z06 GT3.R and the No. 81 DragonSpeed Ferrari 296 GT3 has taken two big swings in the last two hours alone.

With 3h45m left, Kirkwood in the Lexus overtook Daniel Juncadella in the No. 3 Corvette, up the inside of Turn 1. As he left the door ajar for Kirkwood, Juncadella also allowed Giacomo Altoè in the No. 81 DragonSpeed Ferrari 296 GT3 to slip past him into third.

Co-driver Albert Costa took over the No. 81 Ferrari after a driver change, but then had to serve a drive-through penalty for an unattended tire in its pit stall. Making matters worse, Costa served the penalty, but only after tangling with the No. 21 AF Corse Ferrari of Alessandro Pier Guidi, the GTD class leader, at the Turn 10 chicane.

Costa has now fallen to seventh in GTD PRO, while Antonio García is now in fourth place in the No. 3 Corvette.

Despite the collision, Pier Guidi and the No. 21 AF Corse Ferrari still lead the GTD class in a Ferrari 1-2 over the No. 023 Triarsi Competizione 296 GT3 driven by Kenton Koch in second.

Jack Hawksworth is running a solid third in the No. 12 Vasser Sullivan Lexus – both RC F GT3s are having a good race – with Tom Gamble running fourth in the No. 27 Heart of Racing Team Aston Martin Vantage GT3.
