Rolex 24 Hour 22: A battle royale between Acura and Cadillac with 2 hours to go
With just 2-hours left to run in the Rolex 24 at Daytona, it’s a battle royale between the #60 Meyer Shank Racing Acura, now in the hands of Simon Pagenaud, and the two Chip Ganassi racing Cadillacs of Sebastien Bourdais and Earl Bamber.
The top-3 are on the same lap and run only seconds apart. The #10 Wayne Taylor/Andretti Acura is a lap down in 4th, but one more caution, and they will get their lap back.
Pagenaud overtook Bourdais moments after a restart to put Meyer Shank Racing’s Acura ARX-06 into the Rolex 24 at Daytona lead with three hours to go but Bourdais is breathing down his neck.
Another battle Royale is going on in GTD with the #27 Aston Martin, the #14 Lexus, the #79 Mercedes and the #3 Corvette literally running nose to tail.
