Penalty for the entry is the least of the 66 problems. I don't think that deserves a penalty given the damage.

James Calado is very unhappy.

Karma for Pla as far as I'm concerned, not sure what he thought would happen!

Have Ford fixed the rear suspension on that already? Rear wheel was not pointing the right way, I'm sure. That's amazing if they have.

Menezes says G-Drive should get a penalty. I think he needs to see some replays. Calado not impressed with Pla.

I don´t buy Calado´s explanation, he cannot use all the track if he has the Ford on the left. They need to give room to other competitors.

Great job by Lopez. The Toyota doesn't seem to be affected by tyre wear much.

Hmm glad it's not just me who isn't sure how long it's going to take to replace this fuel flow meter.

EDIT: Less than a minute!

That was the fastest change of any part ever. Interesting they chose to make that part so accessible.

Didn't they have issues in F1 when they introduced the fuel flow meters, so maybe it has something to do with that.

I thought that the ACO mandated that they be quick change/easily accessible on LMP1s because they were worried about reliability issues with them.

They were pretty unreliable yeah, and readings varied massively. Interesting though!

Even rain isn't going to help Toyota on pace, because they seem to lack downforce compared to Porsche. Perfect tyre calls (and some poor ones from Porsche) or an incident is their only chance outside of mechanical woes at this point.
