Who has won the big 3 in Sportscars ?

Im trying to find out which drivers have won the big 3 in sportscar racing .

The big 3 meaning Le mans 24 , Sebring 12 and the Daytona 24 ?

Names that spring to mind are Andy Wallace , TWR and Guerney Toyota and Davy Lones also for TWR and Joest .

Wallace-Sebring for TWR and Toyota ,Daytona for TWR and Toyota and Le Mans for TWR . Im still amazed that Dyson never won Sebring with their R&S .

Jones- Sebring and Daytona for TWR and Le Mans for Joest .

Cheers for your help .

Ger

Didn't realize this, but just saw it, Marco Werner.

Daytona '94, Sebring '03 & '05, Lemans '05

Edit: See you got it first. Funny, not even Tommy K can boast that.

Holbert won Daytona in '86 and '87 driving for himself. Sebring in '81 for Bayside Disposal Racing. That may be your missing link.

Obviously, Lemans in '83 '86 & '87

Jan Lammers has won Le Mans (Jaguar, '88) and Daytona (Jaguar, '88 & '90).

According his website he "finished first" at Sebring in '95:

Quote:
...
He drives the 12 Hours of Sebring with Andy Wallace and Derek Bell in a Spice-Chevrolet, finishing in first place, but failures in the timing system show Ferrari as the winner.
...
Someone more info about this timing system problem?

Ford ordered Miles to slow down when he had a half-lap lead so that the 1-2-3 GT40s could finish line abreast. But at the line the McLaren/Amon car was marginally ahead so won.

An alternative viewpoint is that you extrapolate back to where the cars were at 24 hours dead, which was more or less line abreast, but as McLaren/Amon were further back than Miles/Hulme on the grid they had driven more distance.

Either way, Ken Miles was the moral winner au Mans that year and there is a theory that Ford royally ed him deliberately, so the headlines would be "Ford in Clean Sweep" rather than "Ken Miles Achieves Triple Crown".

Graham took the OTHER Triple Crown, F1 World Champion, Le Mans 24 hours, Indy 500.
I am not aware that he ever raced at Daytona, and I'm not sure he won at Sebring...
