Page "Juan Pablo Montoya" Paragraph 64

Montoya ran in the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona and finished second after a thrilling duel with David Donohue.

Montoya's Lexus did not have the speed that Donohue had in the Porsche he was driving, and when Montoya was slowed by lap traffic in the chicane, Donohue was able to pass Montoya and hold him off to take the victory, denying Montoya his third straight 24 hour win.

The margin of victory in the 2009 Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona was 0. 167 seconds, making it the closest finish in Rolex 24 hour history.
