It's presumed it's for barrier repair after the LMP3 practice, but haven't seen confirmation of that.

I hope you're right, although this delay in practice doesn't give me hope!

What time did the RTL practice session end. Ending a pilot class practice session just before qualifying starts is asking for trouble imo. What if repairs would have taken 2 hours?

Was there ever an arrangement where the GTE cars got kicked of the track 30 mins before end of session? Whereas LMPs couldn't go out in the first 30 minutes? So that each category could have clean qualy laps?

Not recently at Le Mans. That's how WEC qualifying works though.

I don't see why 3:16 or 3:15 would be impossible given test day. I'd say a 14 is possible if it all lines up.

What boggles me is that for the biggest race in the world the authorities can't make an exception once a year when something like this comes up and keep the damn roads closed for a bit longer.

Right, these guys mean business. Decade-old LMP2 lap record broken at the first time of asking. And 3:19 straight off the bat for the P1s too.

#47 conked out just before the pits. Looks like an electrical issue.

LMP1s hitting traffic all the time. I don't see fast laps happening at the moment(I mean record ones below 3.16.8). It would be really ideal to have it like on every other WEC round and separate the qualifyings for the GTs and LMPs

Looks like the tean are having to negotiate getting their Dallara back.

Both Porsche in the garage. The 2 is in bits. Bit odd.
