Tom Blomqvist leads the Petit Le Mans race with over two hours gone, having maintained the lead from pole position in the #60 MSR Acura for Acura Meyer Shank Racing.
Following him is Jack Aitken driving the #31 Action Express Cadillac, who began from second place, and Kevin Magnussen in the #24 BMW holds third.
The race saw several full course yellows, with the fourth caused by a GTD car’s tire flying off and later a significant crash involving multiple cars, including a head-on collision between Manny Franco’s #34 Conquest Racing Ferrari and Brendan Iribe’s #70 Inception Ferrari.
Blomqvist and Aitken did not pit during the yellow flags, giving them a strategic advantage over their competitors in GTP.
In the LMP2, GTD Pro, and GTD classes, Jeremy Clarke, Lauren Heinrich, and Simon Mann were leading respectively in their cars at the time of the latest updates on the race.
