2021 Daytona 24 Hours - 22.5 Hour Report

We're down to the last 90 minutes of the race and we still have three classes fully up for grabs:

 

DPi -  The #10 Wayne Taylor Acura has led a TON of this race, and the #60 Meyer Shank Acura, the #55 Mazda, #01 Ganassi Cadillac and the #48 Action Express Ally Cadillac are all still within 15 seconds of the lead. This is going to go down to the wire.


GTLM - Both Corvettes, the #24 RLL BMW and the #62 Risi Ferrari are all on the lead lap.


GTD - The top-7 cars are all on the lead lap, with the 8th place #97 Aston Martin just a lap down. This is like a barroom brawl.



Meanwhile, the two classes that are less up for grabs:


LMP2 - The #18 and the #8 cars are separated by about a lap.


LMP3 - The #74 car has a four lap lead over the #33 car. OK, this one is basically over.


I'm going to settle in with a Rahr and Sons Brewing Winter Warmer (although it's like 40 degrees here in Oklahoma...yes, home of "Full Out 2: You Got This!".....we tell each other "you got this!" pretty much constantly in these parts) and watch the end. Buckle up!
