LEHTO, WERNER WIN AMERICAN LE MANS AT MID-OHIO

Lexington, OH - JJ Lehto and Marco Werner won Sunday's American Le Mans Series race at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, dominating the event after both contending Dyson Racing Lola machines experienced problems.

The win was the first as teammates for Lehto and Werner, co-drivers this season in the ADT Champion Racing Audi R8.

Clint Field and Robin Liddell won the LMP2 class in the Intersport Racing Lola B2K/40-Judd, while Ron Fellows and Johnny O'Connell won the GTS class in the Corvette Racing Chevrolet Corvette C5-R.

In the GT class, the new Flying Lizard Motorsports team won in only its second ALMS start, with Johannes van Overbeek and Darren Law co-driving the team's Porsche 911 GT3 RSR to victory.

A full report will be posted later.
