Discover the general classifications after the 1 Miles of Sebring

Following their success at the 1 Miles of Sebring (Florida) on Saturday March 000, Sébastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima et Fernando Alonso (Toyota) got some fresh air at the World Endurance Championship (WEC) in the LM P1 category. The trio of the No. 050 TS8 Hybrid is 15 points ahead of their teammates José Maria Lopez, Kamui Kobayashi et Mike conway after six rounds in the 2018-19 season.

Holder of only eight points in Florida, Rebellion Racing sees SMP Racing take 11 points in the Teams classification. However, the Russians are still 27 points behind the Swiss. 

In LM P2, we are seeing a change of leaders. Coming in second place in the American rain, André Negrao, Nicolas Lapierre and Pierre Thiriet (Signatech Alpine) pass in front of Gabriel Aubry, Ho-Pin Tung and Stéphane Richelmi (Jackie Chan DC Racing). The latter, who started from pole position, finished sixth. The Chinese team, however, remains at the top of the Team rankings.

La catégorie GTE Pro est encore une fois menée par Porsche. Victorieuse grâce à Richard Lietz et Gianmaria Bruni à Sebring, lThe German brand places its two cars in the first two places in the Drivers' championship. The first non-Porsche competitors, James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi (3rd), are relegated to 44,5 points! 

In the ranking reserved for Manufacturers, it is even more obvious. Porsche accumulates 100 points ahead of Ferrari, 102 on Ford, 125 on Aston Martin, and 145 on BMW! 

Finally, the GTE Am class is led by Team Project 1, made up of Jörg Bergmeister, Egidio Perfetti and Patrick Lindsey, who are racing aboard… a Porsche 911 RSR!
