"Clean Diesel Cleaning Clocks At Sebring"
We near the two hour mark here at the 12 Hours of Sebring, with the Peugeot diesel driven by Nic Minassian in the lead, the Audi diesel driven by Rinaldo Capello second, a Peugeot in 3rd wheeled by Stephane Sarrazin, and Marco Werner in the 4th running Audi diesel. The best of the rest is the pole sitting Acura, driven this stint by Simon Pagenaud. All five are LeMans Prototype 1 (LMP1) cars.
The LMP1 car driven now by Scott Sharp is 6th, a lap in arrears.
Neither polewinner Scott Dixon, or Dario Franchitti have made an appearance behind the wheel. One would expect them to go for it once they strap in to their Acura LMP1 cars.
We'll update a bit more frequently on Twitter, and of course here, if events dictate.
