Could the Nissan be like a GT Porsche? Have a front on crash and bam, possible damage to the gearbox/engine. Seems that way after the issues the 22? has had, hit the debris and it got stuck in 4th.

oh well, the driver doesn't even know what he hit. I guess the world will never know...
At least it looks like it can be fixed but with a long time in the garage, the Nissan crew working hard on all three cars and still over 14 hours to go |

that sounds like an urban myth. It was out on the Mulsanne and apparently its very hard for spectators to even get near there, let alone throw something on track.

If Nissan don't know what they hit then it wasn't an animal. There would be quite a bit of evidence of that. But a road car tyre? What the hell.

Fair enough, but like I said, it wouldn't surprise me.
I hope you're right! |

Lotterer has actually been losing time to Tandy.

Rast and Tandy, GT drivers, 1-2 overall at Le Mans. Rast has been putting in some proper times too.

Wow Nissan have been unlucky with tyres and the lack of them. Obviously that is one big disadvantage of a FWD car if you lose one of the front wheels.
