. Acura 1-2 again in Roar24 third practice, but Porsche is closing in, and the top 8 cars were covered by just 0.67sec IMSA Daytona
Chip Ganassi Racing’s Cadillacs were the first cars to show their hand, with Sebastien Bourdais #01 and Alex Lynn ducking into the 1min35s with their third laps, but then Tom Blomqvist sent the Meyer Shank Racing Acura ARX-06 to the top with a 1min35.363sec lap of the 3.56-mile Daytona International Speedway road course.
The Acura of Wayne Taylor Racing didn’t hit the track until halfway through the session, Louis Deletraz turning the car’s first laps of the day, albeit 2sec off Blomqvist’s pace. Then Lapierre ducked into the 1min38s, half a second clear, before Mikkel Jensen neatly bisected that gap in the #11 TDS Racing car.
With 22mins remaining, Dickerson moved to the top of the times by shaving a mere 0.069sec from Bell’s benchmark, but 10mins later he thumped in a 1min42.653sec, leaving the Andretti car over six-tenths clear of his nearest rival, which was still Bell.
