The two official works Porsche drivers were frequently side by side on the Daytona banking, in the turns and on memorable occasions even through chicanes over the closing three hours. Despite compromising each other’s racing lines, they were initially able to stay clear of the Risi Competizione Ferrari 488.
But in the closing stint, they started trading paint in side-to-side and nose-to-tail nudges, until Jaminet appeared to have the job done when he held off Vanthoor at the International Horseshoe on the last lap. However, approaching the Le Mans Chicane (née Bus Stop), Vanthoor gave it one last try, despite Jaminet protecting the inside.
