The Race Postions after fourteen hours are:
The Gurney/Grant Red 3 Ford Mark II is leading,
Miles/Hulme pale blue 1 Ford Mark II is second with
McLaren/Amon black 2 Ford Mark II in third
and
Bucknum/Hutcherson gold 5 Ford Mark II is fouth
the GT category is lead by
Scott/Revson Ford GT 40 in 5th place
next comes a Porsche 906 driven by Siffert & Davis
Ford, Ford, Ford, Ford, Ford, Ford, Porsche
the Ferraris? gone in the night ...... along with the lone Texas car
retirements:
Chaparral - battery
Fords: Andretti, G.Hill, and J.Ickx
Ferraris: the 365 P2's of Mairesse, Bondurant and Ginther along with the Parkes 330 P3
Matre BRMs: all three out
and one of the CDs
The only Ferrari hope is the Bandini Car now running in 12th place
The Chaparral is not the winner of the last race but one newly converted from a 2D specification - it is a pity they did not race both Prototypes.
