68 Ford finally got through to first in GTE-Pro, the gold driver of the Risi Ferrari crew got reigned in and passed by. And now, looks like the 5 and 2 put another lap on the #6 Toyota.

Razzle Dazzle noooooo

#Edit the #8 Audi looks slow on the Mulsanne too. Audi just completely hosed the dog this year didn't they?

The cars in front can have failures, there's still 4 hours in the race. They're also getting data from their runs for the rest of the season. And there's the personnal value of "I loving did Le Mans, awesome"

looks for the most part like it'll be #5 Toyota vs. #2 Porsche to the end. Toyota currently has an ~1 min lead, and the #6 was pulled into the pits for a short while to collect all of Kamui's gravel ensure there's no bad problems with the car, putting it now 3 laps behind the leaders. It's the reserve, it'll probably become the tortoise, while the #5 likely is their one big shot.

2:30 left. Still a lot to play for.

I did not expect it to be the #5 that was the Toyota with the best shot in this race.

if memory serves, a long time in the pits fixing the brake/wheel hub. both Audis have had those issues throughout, and spent lots of time in the garage.
