In the IMSA GTLM class, the two MOTUL BMW M8 GTEs run by BMW Team RLL crossed the finish line in fourth and fifth place. Bruno Spengler and Connor De Phillippi occupied third place for most of the race and looked on course for a podium, but were unable to hold off the #912 Porsche in the closing stages. John Edwards and Jesse Krohn, winners of the 24 Hours of Daytona in January, came home fifth. Victory went to the #4 Corvette.

“We knew we would not have of the speed of our competitors, but we battled hard. We maximised what we had.”

“With our lack of pace compared with our competitors finishing P4 after starting sixth is a testament to how hard we all worked. I am looking forward to Road America and an all-new circuit for me.”

“It was a tough day for us as we struggled for pace. The yellow helped our strategy, but it was not enough. We’ll put our heads down and look to rebound in two weeks at Road America, one of my favourite circuits in North America.”

“Everyone tried their hardest today, but whatever we did was not enough to get a good result.”
