In the penultimate hour of the Rolex 24 at Daytona, Tom Blomqvist made an impressive move to overtake Felipe Nasr for the overall race lead. Blomqvist pitted earlier than necessary but still within the required window, giving him an advantage with warm tires. Nasr, on the other hand, had to deal with his tires coming up to temperature and lost the position. However, Nasr experienced a lockup heading into the International Horseshoe, possibly causing damage to a tire. Blomqvist has now created some distance between his No. 31 Whelen Cadillac and Nasr’s Porsche. In the other classes, Era Motorsports is leading in LMP2, Risi Competizione is in control of GTD PRO, and Winward Racing leads in GTD.
