24 hours of Le Mans – H+19: the safety car tightens the positions

The 19th hour of the race at Le Mans was marked by the intervention of the safety car which entered the track to allow the marshals to repair a manhole cover at Tertre Rouge. The race resumed after several tens of minutes but the sector remains in the “slow zone”.

 

La Toyota n ° 8 of Fernando Alonso now has a one-minute lead over José-Maria Lopez's sister car.

 

In LM P2, the No. 217 United Autosports Ligier JS P22 driven by Paul di Resta took fourth position in the category against the Idec Sport Racing Oreca 07 driven by Paul-Loup Chatin. G-Drive Racing maintains control of the category with the No. 26 of Jean-Éric Vergne preceding the Ligier of Panis-Barthez Competition in which Will Stevens is racing, Pierre Thiriet remaining in third place in LM P2 on theAlpine A470.

 

If the Porsche n°92 continue de dominer le GTE Pro avec Michael Christensen à son volant, la voiture sœur n°91 de Gianmaria Bruni est menacée par la Ford GT n°69 de Dirk Müller revenue dans ses échappements. Christian Ried reste en tête du GTE Am avec la 911 RSR n°77 du Dempsey-Proton Racing.
