The Porsche's aero is relatively skinny anyway because it gives them more consistent opportunities to recoup their energy allowance. A good test from here will be to see whether the #17 gets past #8 Audi for third. It's the better part of a lap back at the moment, but lapping quite a bit faster.
I'd not call it for Porsche yet but it's looking good. |

Theyll be done with this version for a few months. So theres no reason to dwell on it. All their focus is on the LM package. Thatll be running in a couple weeks time. Audi was not winning these races last year, then took LM. At least the Toyota is reliable.

And confirmation that the #7 has double stinted, it takes the lead.

Wont be surprised if Nissan is quicker than Toyota at Le Mans.

If I'm correct, out of the factory cars, only the #2 and the #18 haven't had problems

audi and porsche built 2 incredible rocketships. i thought the rules won't allow cars to take down peugeot's records in 2008/2010 and here we are with audi and porsche 2 seconds quicker than the 908 on spa. wonder how that will translate to le mans.

Toyota wont be running a high d/f car at Le Mans. And Nissan only has 2mj. Even Toyota's 'slow' car beat Peugeots lap record here.
Looks like Lotterer's tires are falling away. |

Toyota are really slow... I don't think even a new l/d package will help them, they lost the straightline acceleration advantage to Porsche and Audi is nearly equal...
Don't think Nissan will be faster than Toyota, though. |

The #7's tyres aren't falling off a cliff, but now the #18 can keep up in S2.
Edit - That was clever from Lotterer. |

Seems like Lieb is realy nice to his tires. Substantially slower laptimes than Dumas. Will be interesting to see if the fresh tire Audi can catch the old tires Porsche.
