And then the #51 had to do the Cntrl Alt Delete restart by the look of it. All working now by the look of it. Still has almost a minute in hand. Ryo Harekare will now be feeling really guilty knowing without his error.....


NNOOOO the Glick #709 is in the fence and wont be moving without help

Hehehe Ferrari given a delta time 10 secs off their FL to get a lap knocked off the race. Sounds like a plan.

The #5 is back out going slowly but still running.... all it needs to do to classify as a finisher is to be running at the end. But it will be 9th and last of the Hypercar finishers.

Ferrari get a very well deserved win with a very un Ferrari like performance. Barely an error in 24 hours.
Toyota 2nd
Caddy 3rd.

Excellent race and one of the best LM 24s for a while.

And the Polish bakery Inter Europol team wins the LMP2 class! Not bad for a country with only one operational race track :haha:

Hi Stranger! Hope all is well with you and your family Toni.

Yes a great result and on the day they were the team to beat and deserved the honours. As we said here earlier to win here for the first time since 1965 and at the first visit for 50 years.
