With a strong and stable pace the SFH Porsche 997 was able to drive away from the majority of the field, only to be followed by Core Motorsports. Wilfred van den Brink, Robin Verdegaal, Filip Verbert and Ruud de Wit The first 12 hours of the race were actually very close with several lead changes between the teams, who were driving slightly different fuel strategies.<\/p>\n<p>During the night though SFH GT2 was able to make the difference and lap the competition. An advantage that was controlled all the way up to the flag, 24 hours later.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Audi R8<\/strong><br \/>\nThe LMP1 team had a totally different race. In the opening laps Matthijs Ottenhoff somehow got a DQ from the game, which luckily could be cleared by the organisation. However that cost the team five laps that would cost them all race to take back.<br \/>\nThe scheduled restarts made that extra hard, because it wasn&#8217;t possible to regain a full lap within the periods between the server restarts, after which the differences were annihilated. In true endurance spirit the LMP1 team continued to pick up places but never came back close to the podium again.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h6>Results<\/h6>\n<p><code>#51 - SFH Audi R10 - ___<\/code><br \/>\n<code>#251 - SFH Porsche 997 - 1st<\/code><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2011 team Simracing For Holland will enter both a GT2 and an LMP1 entry for the Sim-racing.de 24h of Le Mans.
