Audi continued its dominance of the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours weekend by sweeping the top three positions in the second practice session on Thursday, with Andre Lotterer setting fast lap.
Having gone fastest in the morning session, Romain Dumas put the No. 2 R18 turbodiesel he shares with Timo Bernhard and Loic Duval at the top of the times again, only to be knocked off by 0.478sec by Andre Lotterer in the sister car.
Lotterer lapped the Florida circuit in 1m47.761s – the best time of the day – in the No. 1 car he is sharing with Benoit Treluyer and Romain Dumas. The No. 3 Allan McNish/Rinaldo Capello/Tom Kristensen completed the sweep.
Guillaume Moreau was the best non-Audi driver in fourth for the OAK Pescarolo squad, but was 1.7sec off the pace. The best of the cars registered for the American Le Mans Series, rather than the World Endurance Championship was the Pickett Racing HPD, driven by Klaus Graf on its fastest lap.
Level 5 again set the pace in LMP2, Ryan Hunter-Reay heading the sister HPD driven by Christophe Bouchut. The OAK Morgan of Matthieu Lahaye was the best WEC-registered car in fourth in class.
GTE Pro honors went to the Gianmaria Bruni in the best of the AF Corse Ferraris, Uwe Alzen his closest challenger in his RLL BMW. Julien Canal set the pace in GTE Am in his Larbre Corvette.
The pacesetters in LMPC and GTC were, respectively, Pablo Sanchez Merchant ORECA and Sean Edwards for the NGT Porsche squad.
