I'm now thinking if the Peugeots can stay out of trouble they could win this. Dropping like flies!

Shame for the number 3 Caddy. Still out but damage from a rear end, so will need to come in

Jota are based just up the road from me, so I’m rooting for  them. Fascinating battle with the Penske nr 6

More seriously, not having inters seems a significant safety issue on such a long track that could be half flooded, half dry.

Bugger, missed some drama over dinner. Why’s the safety car out?

Carnage after heavy rain at Porsche curves, drivers trying to stay on slicks.

Don’t know why safety car is still out - they’ve all changed to wets now. 🤷‍♂️

Missed all that. Did see the 93 Pug spin off, on cold slicks though.

Bloody hell, the 2 Ferrari and Porsche were sooo close to going straight to a safety car again

I reckon that's just a flesh wound for the JOTA Porsche

Think it was just the Porsche Curves being the Porsche Curves, tiny mistakes tend to get punished hard (and probably still damp when well off line)

Listening along on Radio LeMans (didi have a dodgy stream going for a while but they've all been shut down!) and it just sounds like carnage. The rain is really playing hardball with everyone, it's a race of survival.

Porsche 75 looking a bit dead. Very impressive that, if it is dead, it’ll be the first Hypercar retirement!

Glad it’s stopped raining. That looked terrifying.

Hope they get the #75 car back. Can’t see it happening but you never know.

Still a fascinating race.

had a break, what happened to the 75 Porsche?

Looked like a tech-style shutdown.

Finally got a good look at the rain tyre - pretty sure I have that tread pattern on my car outside. Looked absolutely bog standard

Yup! Wouldn’t usually be rooting for Toyota but want to see a good race. Looks like the Ferrari (GTE) driver was caught out by the yellows

Someone wrote earlier that there would be no Peugeots running after 6 hours, ones in the lead by over 2 minutes now I think it is.

What happened to Kobayashi? I was too busy mending relations with our French cousins and watching an ACDC tribute to notice. I also appear to have been in Tertre Rouge drinking since 1615 🤣

It got rear ended going into a slow zone, looked like 3 cars involved but don't know who was at fault but wasn't the Toyota
