Nine hours down in the Rolex24Hours and it's still all to play before between Cadillac, Acura and the best of the Porsches: IMSA Rolex24
The #60 Acura ARX-05 was second for the restart after the fourth full-course caution of the race, which came early in the seventh hour when the LMP2 class-leading #11 TDS Racing Oreca of Steven Thomas picked up damage in an incident at the Bus Stop chicane.
Derani led until pitting to hand over to Jack Aitken just shy of 9pm local time, and Aitken continued to hold the advantage after the subsequent pit cycle, but in the next stint it was Alex Lynn in the move aboard the #02 Ganassi Cadillac. At the restart just before the nine-hour mark, van der Zande led from Aitken in the AXR Cadillac, while Westbrook was shuffled back to fifth behind Mathieu Jaminet's #6 Porsche 963 and a recovering Tom Blomqvist in the MSR Acura.
The #35 TDS car of Josh Pierson ran second ahead of Gianmaria Bruni in the #55 Proton Competition machine.
