Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas became the most decorated pilots of 24 hours of Daytona on Sunday at Daytona International Speedway. Ironically, they managed the feat by having the best on the latest drivers alongside whom they have won in 2008!

The defending champions have indeed defeated Juan Pablo Montoya and Dario Franchitti on board the No. 01 Ganassi car. Is a particularly great for Ganassi, which won the top-2 race.

The No. 02 car, also copilotée Jamie McMurray and Scott Dixon led the race for the 23rd time, they did have to concede the victory, despite a revival of an exciting tour at the end of the event.

As champions, they shared the wheel of the No. 01 with Joey Hand and Graham Rahal, son of Bobby Rahal, winner of the event in 1981 along with Brian Redman and Bob Garretson.

This was the tightest results of the event for over 40 years, beating Dixon by just Pruett 2426 seconds at the finish.

In GT division, Andy Lally, Spencey Pumpelly, Wolf Henzler, Brendan Gaughan and Steven Bertheau won the victory. Bryce Miller, Tim Sugden, Bryan Sellers and Rob Bell finished second.

The Hollywood actor Patrick Dempsey was also particularly emotional when his team (Joe Foster, Charles Espenlaub, Tom Long and himself) finished third in the class. He came close to victory as a driver and as a team owner.

The Canadian Jean-Francois Dumoulin has not been as successful as hoped this year. Ferrari rallied damaged wells in mid-race, his team working hard to repair the transmission, without much success. He finished far behind.
