P2's Sweep Overall Podium at Sebring..............

Post by mlittle » Sun Mar 16, 2008 1:25 pm

By all accounts, 2007 in the American LeMans Series was a dream season for Penske Racing.....if the beginning of 2008 is an indicator.....it could get even better; for the first time since 1988, a Porsche won the overall victory of the 12 Hours of Sebring when Hans Stuck and Klaus Ludwig in a Porsche 962; for team owner Roger Penske, it was just as special, as "the Captain" became the first team owner in NA motorsports with victories in three of the biggest auto races in North America--Indy, Daytona and Sebring.

It was a special day for Georgia native Johnny O'Connell, who notched his 7th victory(class or overall) alongside fellow Corvette pilots Ron Fellows and Jan Magnussen; indeed, it was a record 12 Hours of Sebring as the first four in the overall standings finished on the lead lap.


Class winners from the 56th Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring presented by Fresh from Florida..............................
LMP-1} Rinaldo "Dindo" Capello, Tom Kristensen and Allan McNish, #1 Audi Sport NA Audi R10 TDI(4th overall)
LMP-2} Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Emmanuel Collard, #7 DHL Global Mail Porsche RS Spyder(1st overall)
GT-1} Johnny O'Connell, Ron Fellows and Jan Magnussen, #3 Compuware Chev. Corvette C-6R(9th overall)
GT-2} Marc Lieb, Jorg Bergmeister and Wolf Henzler, #45 Shoretel/eSilicon Porsche 997 RSR(13th overall)
