Jordan Taylor: Parked for Tire Punctures
Wayne Taylor says its Cadillac DPi-V.R was running to the suggested parameters by Continental Tire, despite having sustained multiple punctures that ultimately led to the car's retirement in the Rolex 24 at Daytona, sportscar365.com reports.
Analysis:
The pole-sitting team would first run into trouble in the fourth hour with Taylor behind the wheel. The Cadillac suffered a cut tire after running over a curb. The No. 10 WTR team would make two trips to the garage in the overnight hours for repairs due to other tire punctures. The defending race winners would have to park their Cadillac DPi just six hours short of full distance. It was a crushing blow for a team that was expected to defend their race win of one year ago.
