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 Last edited by jhansen; 9 Aug 2006 at 19:43. |

Jan Lammers has won Le Mans (Jaguar, '88) and Daytona (Jaguar, '88 & '90).
According his website he "finished first" at Sebring in '95: Quote:

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... Tim |
