## Background

[edit]

Main article: 2019 1000 Miles of Sebring

The FIA World Endurance Championship returned to the venue for the same weekend for the first time since 2012, albeit with a few changes. The World Endurance Championship had a 1,000-mile standalone event of its own on Friday, March 15, 2019, the day before the official 12 Hours of Sebring sanctioned by IMSA, on March 16.[1][2] Despite initial questions raised over whether or not two separate events of the same length could be held on the same weekend, the event was confirmed to be the sixth round of the 2018-19 FIA World Endurance Championship. Select drivers and teams, such as Corvette Racing and Chip Ganassi Racing, competed in both events back-to-back.[3]

International Motor Sports Association's (IMSA) president Scott Atherton confirmed the race was part of the schedule for the 2019 IMSA SportsCar Championship (IMSA SCC) in August 2018.[4] It was the sixth consecutive year it was part of the IMSA SCC, and the 67th 12 Hours of Sebring. The 12 Hours of Sebring was the second of twelve scheduled sports car endurance races of 2019 by IMSA, and the second of four races of the Michelin Endurance Cup (MEC).[5] It was held at the 17-turn, 3.741-mile (6.021 km) Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Florida on March 16, 2019.[6]

On 28 February 2019, IMSA released a technical bulletin regarding the Balance of Performance for the 12-hour race. In the Daytona Prototype international (DPi) class, most cars had reductions in power, with the exception of the Cadillac DPi. The Mazda RT24-P was made 10 kilograms heavier, and had fuel capacity reduction. In the GT Le Mans class (GTLM), the Ferrari 488 GTE was made 15 kilograms lighter.[7] Despite being given a break, Ferrari GTLM team Risi Competizione decided to forgo Sebring, for concerns over the adjustment.[8]

Before the race, Jordan Taylor, Renger van der Zande, Fernando Alonso, and Kamui Kobayashi led the DPi Drivers' Championship with 35 points, ahead of Pipo Derani, Felipe Nasr, and Eric Curran in second position with 32 points.[9] In LMP2, Sebastián Saavedra, Pastor Maldonado, Ryan Cullen, and Roberto González led the Drivers' Championship with 35 points.[9] The GTLM Drivers' Championship was led by Connor De Phillippi, Philipp Eng, Colton Herta, and Augusto Farfus with 35 points, 3 ahead of James Calado, Alessandro Pier Guidi, Miguel Molina, and Davide Rigon in second position.[9] With 35 points, Mirko Bortolotti, Rik Breukers, Rolf Ineichen, and Christian Engelhart led the GTD Drivers' Championship.[9] Cadillac, BMW, and Lamborghini were leading their respective Manufacturers' Championships while Konica Minolta Cadillac, DragonSpeed, BMW Team RLL, and GRT Grasser Racing Team each led their own Teams' Championships.[9]

## Entries

[edit]

A total of 38 cars took part in the event split across 4 classes. There were 11 cars in the DPi class, eight entries in GT Le Mans, 17 in GT Daytona, and a mere two entrants in the LMP2 class. Following the retirement of Christian Fittipaldi, Le Mans winner Brendon Hartley joined the Action Express Racing team in the No. 5 car. Matthieu Vaxivière joined Wayne Taylor Racing in their No. 10 Cadillac, after Toyota Gazoo Racing drivers Kamui Kobayashi and Fernando Alonso were barred from taking part in IMSA's event. In the GT Daytona class, Black Swan Racing, who had confirmed a full endurance-event program for the 2019 IMSA Season, had withdrawn as a result of team owner and driver Tim Pappas sustaining injuries from February's Bathurst 12 Hour event.[10]
