The No. 7 Porsche Penske Motorsport 963 driven by Felipe Nasr, Julien Andlauer and Laurin Heinrich took the overall victory at the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring. (imsa.com) Nasr finished just 1.515 seconds clear of his sister No. 6 Porsche Penske 963, which was contested by Kevin Estre, Laurens Vanthoor and Matt Campbell in the closing laps. (imsa.com) The two Penske 963s combined to lead 273 of the race’s 343 laps, and Porsche’s Daytona-plus-Sebring run this season has seen its 963s lead 794 of 1,048 laps across the two events. (imsa.com) AF Corse’s No. 21 Ferrari, crewed by Antonio Fuoco, Simon Mann and Lilou Wadoux, was handed three drive‑through penalties during the final 3½ hours — including one for avoidable contact with the No. 64 Ford of Ben Barker. (sportscar365.com) Despite those penalties Fuoco launched a recovery charge and executed a decisive last‑lap pass on Tom Gamble’s Aston Martin to secure the GTD class victory for the No. 21 entry. (imsa.com) Manthey Racing’s Porsche 911 GT3 R of Thomas Preining, Ricardo Feller and Klaus Bachler won GTD PRO ahead of AO Racing’s No. 77 crew (Nick Tandy, Harry King, Alessio Picariello), completing a Porsche 1‑2 in GTD PRO. ( ) The No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Cadillac, which crossed the line third on the road, subsequently failed post‑race technical inspection and was moved to the back of the GTP class in the official classification.
