By: J.J. O'Malley 25 minutes ago Wayne Taylor Racing’s No. 10 Konica Minolta DPi Cadillac driven by Jordan Taylor, Renger van der Zande, Kamui Kobayashi and Fernando Alonso won the 57th running of the Rolex 24 At Daytona when IMSA deemed the event official after 23 hours and 50 minutes of racing, calling the race after extensive rainfall caused some of the most extreme weather conditions ever seen at Daytona International Speedway.Fernando Alonso becomes the third F1 champion to win an endurance race at Daytona, joining Mario Andretti and Phil Hill, whose win in 1964 came in the 2,000-kilometer Daytona Continental road race.For the first time in history, the race was red flagged twice due to wet conditions, first for an hour, 45 minutes on Sunday morning and a second and final time at 12:39 p.m. ET.Finishing second in DPi was the No. 31 Whelen Engineering DPi-V.R driven by Felipe Nasr, Eric Curran and Pipo Derani, and the No. 7 Team Penske Acura took third, driven by Alexander Rossi, Ricky Taylor and Helio Castroneves.The No. 18 DragonSpeed ORECA, which Sebastian Saavedra had crashed with minutes to go before the red flag flew, took the LMP2 class win with Saavedra, Roberto Gonzalez and Pastor Maldonado. In driving rain, Saavedra’s crash badly damaged the car, but the team had an insurmountable four-lap gap.In GTLM, Augusto Farfus took the lead one lap before the final caution to earn an emotional win in GTLM in the No. 25 Team RLL BMW M8 GTE co-driven by Connor De Phillippi, Philipp Eng and Colton Herta. The victory comes days after the sudden death of Karl ‘Charly’ Lamm, the longtime leader of BMW Team Schnitzer.The GTD class win went to Rolf Ineichen, Mirko Bortolotti, Christian Engelhart and Rik Breukers in the No. 11 GRT Grasser Racing Team Lamborghini Huracan GT3 for the second straight Rolex 24.This story will be updated.
