Wow. This is brutal. Can the 9 find pace to get in contention?

But, like Daytona and Sebring, this feels like a proper endurance race. Actual attrition taking place.

Issue for the 7 car has killed the mood of this race. I hope the 9 car can step up!! Toyota so fortunate to have brought 3 cars.

Kunimoto will need to have the drive of his life. Lopez needs to keep it out of the barriers.

I hope for Toyota that they can get a quick fix for this. There's always hope if they don't lose too many laps. If not, it's up to the #9.

I hope so, otherwise this gets really boring.

GTEPro has been okay however.

Something is indicating 38% on the dash. Is that the battery?

Scorchess has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Congratulations Porsche

I guess we'll have to look at the GTE battle for third now?

So both teams do long test 30+ hours...but do they test slow zones?? Could it be that the heat (ambient temp) plus the slow speed of the slow zones are causing these issues we're seeing in the LMP1 cars.

Lol. I didn't want to kill the mood, but if Aston don't have any issues (which is a big statement), no one will touch them today.

Looking more and more like #7 is going to be done and stuck out on track.

No idea why people are congratulating Porsche with over half the race left.

This is Le Mans. Nobody wins it at 1am. Plenty of twists left in this tale.
