#92 is on a different strategy. Pitted lap before.

I think the 92 pitted the lap before, so missed this. No idea where it'll end up.

Are there any difference fuel filler flow between the GTE cars? Porsches gain time every time during pit stops.

Yes, 1 safety car infront. So a third of a lap infront.

I think you're right. It'll be about 1min 15 seconds lead.

In 2010 we had almost 2 hours of safety car and the distance record hasn't been beaten since then. On the other hand we have slow zones and safety car for every little incident on track.

#38 finally back and in box. It is agonizing watching cars hobble back after tire issues, and then you see the damage to the floor and side pod. That car is damaged.

The reason for the ByKolles to start last


Quote:
There was drama at the start of the Formation Lap as first the ByKolles refuses to fire for Tom Dillmann, then, when, after some delay, he finally coaxed the #4 CLM ENSO Nismo into life, he spun on cold tyres at Dunlop.
