Le Mans – 10 a.m.: status quo at the head of the race

Tom Kristensen is still at the wheel of the No. 2 Audi, one lap ahead of the Tototas of Stéphane Sarrazin and Kazuki Nakajima. Lucas di Grassi remains fourth in the No. 3 Audi while Rebellion Racing maintains the upper hand against Strakka Racing. However, Andrea Belicchi (Lola n°13) received a 30-second stop & go for excessive speed in the pits. Oak Racing retains its two Morgans at the head of LMP2. Rodolfo Gonzalez has a good lead over the No. 24 of Olivier Pla. The Zyteks of Jota Sport (No. 38) and Greaves Motorsport (No. 32) are still in the battle for third place in the category.

Porsche se rebelle en GTE Pro. Marc Lieb reprend la deuxième place à la Vantage n°97 de Darren Turner au volant de la 911 RSR n°92. Mais Rob Bell possède une avance de trois minutes sur la n°99. La n°91 de Jörg Bergmeister est toujours aux portes du tiercé de tête de la catégorie.

The fight is close in GTE Am. Ferrari #55 of AF Corse was in the lead with Lorenzo Case at the wheel until Jean-Karl Vernay regained the advantage in the #911 3 GT76 RSR IMSA. The No. 88 Proton Porsche was in first place until an off-track event dropped it to fifth.
