The 2020 Rolex 24 Hours: By The Numbers

Two records were smashed in the Rolex 24 Hours that was interrupted by just six full-course cautions totalling 1 hour 43 minutes and 43 seconds (or 28 laps!).

The first is the overall distance record which stood at 808 laps before today and has now been upped to 833 laps (2965.48 miles).

Five first time IMSA sanctioned race winners put the total now above 1000 to 1002 with the first IMSA race wins for Ben Hanley, Henrik Hedman, Harrison Newey, Chaz Mostert and Andrea Caldrelli.

The longest consecutive period of green flag running was smashed too, that now stands at 7 hours and 48 minutes or 280 laps.

It’s a double win not only for Wayne Taylor’s team but for drivers Kamui Kobayashi and Renger van der Zande.
