I have only seen the collision with the P2 car and the aftermath of the blown tire. Was he and the team not aware of the tire issue, or did he try to rush it back to the pits?

Don't know tbh. We do know that midway round the lap the team radioed him and told him to slow down. Lapierre said he couldn't shift down. Because by that point he'd ripped the hydraulic line out and has no control of the gearbox. Had he driven slowly from the start then it'd have been fine.

#2 is now #2, chasing #38. How much is it gaining per lap and can it get to #1?

Will the engine last until 3pm, or will this be Peugeot 2010 again?

Its gaining about 10 seconds a lap. According to RLM that's about on par with what it needs.

So, no margin for safety cars, slow zones or more problems for a #2 going at ten tenths and some more
