Sebring qualifying was rained off so starting grid positions weren't relevant. The C6.R's appeared to have the measure of the DBR9's in the first part of the race but it was ultimately Darren Turner in the #57 who put in the quickest GT1 lap of the race. That suggests the DBR9's could perhaps have set a less cautious pace throughout. No C6.R's at Silverstone anyway.
The car will have been developed further since Sebring and Prodrive would certainly expect to have the measure of the 550's, the C5-R and the Saleens. Which leaves the Maserati's. They impressed at Monza until the latter stages of the race when they were overhauled by a 550!
It will be close, but I just think they will be too strong both on the track and in the pitlane.
