La matinée de la deuxième journée d’essais collectifs de Sebring a été à nouveau dominée par le Toyota Gazoo Racing, la n°7 de Conway-Kobayashi once again ahead of the n°8 of Alonso-Nakajima. But yesterday afternoon’s times were not beaten. The Non-Hybrid LM P1s are, on the other hand, much closer, since the #1 BR17-AER of Sirotkin-Sarrazin-Orudzhev only concedes 0”418 to the reference mark, and the #3 Rebellion R-One to 0 »9.

The LM P2 category is the only one to be faster than yesterday. Surprise, it is the Dallara P217 of Racing Team Nederland which leads the way, even if theAlpine A470 n°36 is only 0”092.

Ford continuer à dominer la concurrence en GTE Pro, alors que le Dempsey Proton Racing, grâce à la Porsche 911 RSR n°88, a repris les devants en GTE Am.

But the major information comes, unfortunately, from the fire which affected the 911 RSR n°56 of Team Project 1, which is leading the championship in GTE Am. The German team is in the process of analyzing the data before taking the necessary measures to ensure his well-being upon departure on Friday. Jörg Bergmeister, who was at the wheel at the time, was fortunately unhurt.
