Pipo Derani jumped into the lead aboard the #31 Action Express Cadillac DPi-V.R in the run-up to the six-hour mark when the half dozen DPis at the front of the field ducked into the pits during the fourth safety car of the race.
The #31 car, which had stopped only 11 laps before, needed a short fill of fuel and didn’t take fresh tyres, vaulting Derani from third to first.
