Indeed. Pretty impressed by Fjordbach, give his lack of experience at this level.

And HighClass, Dallara and Fjordbach lead. A first for all three of them.

The LMP3 spin disease is spreading. Hedman does one at the Village now.

Edit - De Sadeleer (#3 United LMP2) is under investigation for overtaking under yellows.

And the Panis Barthez car just rejoined after a long pit stop. I know that they have a pit reporter, wish they'd run over and ask what that was all about.

Not sure ELMS has a pit reporter. If they share with WEC then the pit reporter is in the wrong pit lane for this race too.

They had an interview with the DragonSpeed team earlier during the race, so they do have one. It's Charlie whatever her name is, the same woman they had last year.

I hey those two mixed up a lot.

Will be interesting to see how the Dallara does with new tyres. Richard Bradley is destroying this race lol. He should be in WEC, he's so good.

Is it AF Corse running the AT Racing LMP3 car? They used to run AT's Ferraris in the past in ELMS and GT Open.

I assumed it was, but I haven't seen anything confirming it.

Problems for the #39 but it gets going again.

Edit - #8 & #32 both given drive-through penalties.

I saw a picture on DSC or S365 with their Ligier and a Ferrari inside the same garage, so I presume AF Corse run it
