If he gets past quickly, he might get the 5s he needs.

The reference to good old days is to the aggregate races after red flags. e.g. 1994 Suzuka F1.

Although we certainly have a very historically memorable Porsche Toyota moment at Le Mans!

Not to tempt fate, but Kobayashi has done enough here to win.

Amazing stint from him and smart strategy from the team should they take the flag.

In practice and qualifying best top speed was 2-3kph in Penske Porsche advantage over Toyota.

Estre pushing a little too much.

4 laps.

Toyota pulls out of corners noticeably better than Porsche from the onboards. It's just enough such that Estre can't have a go into Tamburello.

Good spot. The front traction, even if it can't be delayed until 190kph, still helping?

This is super close on energy. He has 2 laps to go.

Perfect backmarker action for Kobayashi.

#50 and #8 alert!

Honestly, the #7 crew has been absolutely immaculate today. Unexpected win, but great strategy calls and excellent driving.
