He has just taken the steering wheel but Rast hasn't set the world on fire, either.

Well that's egg on my face, Fassler's last two laps have been 3:19s. He's catching Webber much quicker now, although I suspect pit stops are coming.

Do the WEC commentators even watch racing? They just said corvette racing needed another chassis in time to make the next ALMS round.............

Interesting that the #17 is 2 mins less in the pits so far than the closest audi ~6mins vs ~8mins (well plus one fuel stop of around 1min the #17 is yet to do).

I can imagine a few Toyota higher-ups being rather embarrassed at how easily the Audi stalked the Toyota through the curves and down to pit-in...

Audi is faster on race pace, and they can quad stint the tires.
Porsche can go longer on a stint, and the stops are shorter.

Interesting mix for a fascinating race

More than a few P2 drivers complaining about how hard the Nissan is to pass.

Edit - #18 Porsche stopped and off the track at Mulsanne. Gone straight on and bumped the tyres quite hard.

Either a brake problem for Dumas, or he simply out-braked himself. A new front nose is on order
