Ferrari holds a one-minute lead over Toyota at two-thirds distance in the LeMans24, as Porsche's chance of a podium finish ended with an incident for Kevin Estre. Report:
Ferrari holds a healthy advantage over Toyota following two-thirds distance at Le Mans 24 Hours, while Porsche’s hopes of a podium finish ended with an incident.The #8 Toyota had been at the head of the field as dawn broke at the Circuit de la Sarthe, but Ryo Hirakawa started to lose time with a damaged front splitter and a slow right-rear puncture to his GR010 HYBRID contender.
Toyota elected to change the front end of the #8 Toyota during the pitstop, which proved crucial in the battle for the lead as it allowed the #51 Ferrari now driven by James Calado to exit ahead. Using fresher tyres, Hirakawa was able to bring the deficit down to 20s but Calado maintained his own to maintain Ferrari’s advantage at the head of the field.
Scott Dixon runs a lap down in the #3 Cadillac in fourth, while Mikkel Jensen holds fifth in the #93 Peugeot. The Frenchman was able to reverse out of the barriers and rejoin the track, but had to bring the #6 Porsche back into the garage, where it spent a whopping 43 minutes undergoing repairs to the floor and bodywork.
Now driven by Albert Costa, the #34 ORECA remains over 30s clear of the #41 WRT car piloted by Rui Andrade, with Job van Uitert moving the #65 Panis Racing ahead of the #30 Duqueine machine of Neel Jani in the battle for the final spot of the podium.
