Sebring Hour 1: #01 Cadillac of van der Zande leads

Posted by AR1 staff

Renger van der Zande has the #01 Chip Ganassi Cadillac out front in the 12 Hours of Sebring endurance classic as the clock hit the 1-hour mark.

That hour was not without controversy as van der Zande squeezed the #31 Action Express Cadillac of Pipo Derani into the inside concrete wall when an Aston Martin, van der Zande and Derani all tried to dive for the same real estate braking into Turn 17.

Derani had to pit for a broken front-right steering tie-rod, costing the team 4 laps to make the repairs.

Ricky Taylor runs 2nd in the #10 Rolex 24 winning Acura  ahead of the #60 Meyer Shank Racing Acura.

The #3 Corvette of Antonio Garcia leads in GTLM  while the #14 and #14 Lexus teammates Aaron Telitz and Frankie Montecalvo run 1-2 in GTD.
