Lotterer still seems to suffer from tyre wear in his second stint.

Paul Truswell calculated exactly the same average lap times:

He calculated that 34 lap stints are necessary to finish the race with just 6 pit stops. Audi can manage this, but Toyota probably not. So Toyota will need some rain or a safety car to avoid an additional stop.
