 Rolex 24: Hour 4 Standings  
Leading Ganassi 02
The Ganassi Racing BMW Riley of reigning IndyCar champion Dario Franchitti led the way after four hours of the 48th Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway. Brian Frisselle lays second driving one of two Michael Shank Racing Ford Rileys, followed by Mike Rockenfeller's Porsche.

Nic Jonsson, behind the wheel of the Krohn Racing Lola Ford, the only Lola Ford in the race.

12 cars were still on the lead lap. The SunTrust Racing Ford Dallara was 13th, two laps down to the leaders after losing time in the pits as the team tried to fix a broken antenna.

Johnson in the Gainsco car
When Jimmy Johnson over-shot turn 1 and kept going down the track, TV announcer Bob Varsha said "Looks like Jimmy Johnson forgot the Daytona 500 isn't for a couple of weeks yet."

Apparently Johnson said the throttle is sticking.  The Gainsco team then brought the car in and took a look at the pedal and throttle, and found nothing "sticking" so it's clear the driver just ran out of talent, again.

7:31 PM ET Lap 112: Wolf Henzler (No. 66 Porsche GT3) is currently leading the GT field.
7:20 PM ET Lap 110: GREEN FLAG WAVES - Dario Franchitti (No. 02 BMW Riley) leads the field.
7:14 PM ET Lap 106: Jimmie Johnson (No. 99 Chevy Riley) tells his crew that the throttle is sticking, shortly after he missed the entrance to the infield road course.
7:11 PM ET Lap 105: FULL COURSE YELLOW - There is debris on course.
7:04 PM ET Lap 101: The No. 23 Foametix Porsche GT3 (Dominik Farnbacher) pits from the lead. The car needed extensive off-site repair after an incident during Thursday's practice session.
7:03 PM ET Lap 100: Legendary sports car racer Hurley Haywood (No. 59 Porsche Riley) just set the fastest lap of the race at 1:43.844 (123.415 mph).
6:56 PM ET Lap 96: Jimmie Johnson (No. 99 Chevy Riley) takes the fourth position overall from Ricardo Zonta (No. 75 Ford Lola). The No. 94 BMW M6 is in the pits, after the car slowed on track.
6:39 PM ET Lap 87: GREEN FLAG WAVES - Dario Franchitti (No. 02 BMW Riley) leads the field.
