Buemi continues to lead for Toyota with two hours gone at Sebring

The two Toyotas continue to lead at the FIA World Endurance Championship 1000 Miles of Sebring, with the pair of Ferraris off strategy.

After the first hour was dominated by a safety car, the race has now settled into a rhythm. Sebastien Buemi in the #8 Toyota GR010 Hybrid leads Mike Conway in the #7 Toyota, with Alex Lynn in the #2 Cadillac V.Series-R third, having just overtaken the #6 Porsche 963 of Laurens Vanbthoor in a fantastic multi-lap battle. The Briton finally found his way by at turn 2, after managing to get on the inside of Vanthoor after turn 1.

When the Toyotas pitted just after the top of the first hour, the Ferraris of Antonio Fuoco, in the #50 Ferrari 499P, and Alessandro Pier Guidi in the sister #51, briefly took the lead as they are off strategy, due to pitting behind the safety car in the first hour and taking on more fuel.

Fuoco, who was let through by Pier Guidi just a few minutes ago, is now around five seconds off Michael Christiansen in the #5 Porsche, with the Italian catching the Danish driver. Christiansen is fifth, around six seconds behind Lynn.

With Pier Guidi seventh behind his teammate, the #4 Vanwall Vandervell 680 of Tom Dillmann is eighth, a lap down. The #708 Glickenhaus 007 is 10th overall, behind the leading P2, while both Peugeot 9X8s have encountered technical troubles and are almost dead last.

That aforementioned leading LMP2 is Josh Pierson in the #23 United Autosports Oreca 07-Gibson. Second in LMP2 is David Beckmann in the #48 JOTA Oreca 07-Gibson, with Ferdinand Habsburg is third, at the wheel of the #31 WRT Oreca 07-Gibson.

Sarah Bovy, the polesitting GTE-Am driver in the #85 Iron Dames Porsche 911 RSR-19, leads GTE-Am again, around nine seconds ahead of Ben Keating in the #33 Corvette C8.R. Third in GTE-Am is Mikkel Pedersen in the #77 Dempsey-Proton Porsche 911 RSR-19.
