The #9 Team Peugeot Total 908 of Pagenaud holds the lead by virtue of economy as the fourteenth hour ended under a safety car.
The Peugeot 908's run 1-2 after the #7 of Davidson overtook the #2 Audi of Fassler as the top three were covered by just 30 seconds after 200 laps.
A majority of the hour was uneventful with a smattering of pit stops by the major contenders.
The #5 Hope Racing team have shown a never say die spirit and even after 20 pit stops continue to try and find the problem with the ORECA car which has had consistent problems.
The #8 Peugeot, which suffered damper problems early in the race, was one of the first of the leading cars to blink as Sarrizan left the car after a three hour stint, and he handed over to Minassian. Soon after the #2 Audi followed for a fuel only.
Some of the closest action in the race comes from the GTE Pro class with half a lap covering the top 4.
However, it was the LMP1 action that saw an overtake after Ant Davidson set a new lap record with a 3.27.713 on lap 188 as he closed on the #2 Audi. Davidson continued to close the gap before he and his team mate, the #9 Peugeot, pitted.
Then an LMP2 pit stop race began as the #33 Level 5 Motorsports car and the #26 Signatech Nissan entered pit road in close proximity, however the #26 suffered some trouble as the crew began to fix something within the cockpit.
Just as the hour ended the #7 of Davidson pounced on the #2 Audi at Indianapolis to take 2nd place and pulled out a 5.3 second lead before the safety car came out after the #13 Rebellion Racing car crashed out with Boullion at the wheel.
