it will be interesting to see which cars/teams adapt to the increasing heat of the day---not that it is likely to get really hot.

Still a lot of time left ..... Derani is being uncharacteristically slow and sensible getting the car back.

74 looks to have a good old fashioned engine failure? Or was that a big lock up?
Edit: Lockup. Nice. |

And there's the FCY. The 74 requires assistance.

Seven-plus hours of green-flag racing comes to an end .... but it was much appreciated.

Fraga seems unable to restart the car.
Another electrical failure? Did that also cause the lockup? |

This is where a code 60 would be great to have. It was just a stalled car situation. Very disappointing. I hate safety cars due to stalled cars and debris. Major pet peeve of mine.

They do barrier repairs at Le Mans quicker than this and that’s saying something

Does the efforts in the past several hours mean nothing now due to a single safety car deployed due to a stalled car on track? These guys worked hard to obtain that 1 minute lead or whatever example you can make. It means nothing unless you can obtain a 2 lap lead due to the wave arounds in fact. That green flag stop to change the breaks by the #24 BMW could have meant something. Its been forgotten now. See what the problem is here. With the cars so reliable now. Its more important to ensure that these events that costs teams a handful of seconds here and there mean something to the overall story of the endurance race. This is not 1994 sportscar racing anymore.
