Rolex 24 Hour 8: Kobayashi leads in #48 Cadillac at 1/3 Mark

Cadillacs ran 1-2-3 at the 1/3 Mark of the Rolex 24 at Daytona, with Kamui Kobayashi out front in the #48 Ally Cadillac.

Kobayashi shares the leading No. 48 Ally Cadillac DPi-V.R, with Jimmie Johnson, Mike Rockenfeller, and Jose Maria Lopez.

As predicted in our last report, Will Stevens would drive the #10 Wayne Taylor Acura to the back of the DPi field, and he did just that, losing two laps during his stint, which included a spin, and driving the car down to 7th place after starting it from the lead.

Now his teammates have to pickup the pieces and Ricky Taylor has already gained 1 lap back.

Other Class Leaders:

LMP2: Luca Ghiotto #69 ORECA
LMP3: Michael Cooper #74 Ligier
GTD-Pro: Daniel Serra #62 Ferrari 488 GT3
GTD: Lucas Auer #57 Mercedes-AMG GT3

#62: Risi Competizione, Ferrari 488 GT3, GTD PRO: Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado, Daniel Serra, Davide Rigon
