Audi preparing tyres in their pits. Looks like a Full Service sans driver change.

They took the tyres out but didn't changed them. Windshield wipe, splitter and underbody check, fuel. Done.
 
Milner in the Vette hunting down Vilanders Fazza, down to 27 seconds.
 
Sounds like a gearbox problem for the #55 BMW. A big shame..
 
Oh, this Live Timing stuff is stupid. Just said the Corvette was a lap behind. Now its 19 seconds behind?

Hm.

Anyway, the cameras need to be watching this fight develop!

Edit: The lone Audi is weaving? No tyre temperatures?

Edit 2: Corvette is now 15 seconds behind!!! Now 7 seconds!

Looks like I can kiss a win for BMW goodbye, placing all my hopes on the #2 Audi now.
 
Corvette less than 7 seconds behind now.

#16 car (Pescarolo) just had a HUGE SMASH at the Porsche curves.

It's like watching a sole candle in the blowing wind. Thinking that at any moment it could go off and it'll all be over. Ohhh sheeshh...SOLDIER ON LOTTERER!!!

And the Pescarolo, sadly, is out! Collard straight to the barrier at the begining fo the Porsche Curves. I'm sorry old man :(.
 
Track surface looking shiny (wet) in places.
 
Crap. Pescarolo out. Binned it at the Porsche Curves. :/
 
Pescarolo gone BIG time.
 
Ohh...the Pesky...ouch. :(
 
Pescarolo out. NOOOOOOO! :(

Last man standing, hopefully counquering France on his own. He can do it! He's got the better car, in my opinion!

The track's getting wetter now, might be good for Audi!

I'll kill any camarographer who shows Henri at this moment :grumpy:.

Signatech Nissan again against a barrier. Looks like La Sarthe wants more victims this weekend.
 
Damn that would suck so bad, 2 hours left and its over..

I have some hoped for the #56 BMW to finish on the podium. Currently the #51 Ferrari is waay too struggling.

The #2 Audi has got a bright chance to have the victory...
 
Signatech's spun it...ouch. :(
 
That car is TRASHED. :(

Yeah, this is Le Mans, after all. It's not over till the checkered flag comes down.
 
Davidson's Peugeot has an expedition to the beach before entering pits...
 
Gene gets in #7, think they're on inters now...and Pagenaud is catching Lotterer pretty quickly. :D
 
#73 Corvette has just passed the Ferrari?
 
And the Corvette is now 8 seconds adrift of the 458 in the GTEPro cat. Hm. This rain is shaking things up that is for sure.

I missed the damn accident of the Pesky. That was very unfortunate for the team manager.

And is anyone thinking the Audi is losing tyre temperature or trying to find a wetter patch of road? (is it on inters?)

My mistake with the Corvette. It must have overtaken the Fezza while it was in the pits?!
 
Audi's probably going to switch tyres on their next regular stop.
