Don't forget that there more top-class sport on today - the men's French Open final is live on Eurosport Show
15. 32 PODIUM CEREMONY UNDERWAYThe drivers are now being invited to the podium to receive their flower wreaths and, in the case of Ferrari, the trophy 15. 12 CELEBRATIONS BEGIN PROPERAlessandro Pier Guini brings the Ferrari back to the start finish straight to collect his teammates and accept the crowd's salutations 15. 03 CORVETTE RACING CLAIM LMGTE AM WINThe win in the LMGTE AM class goes to Corvette Racing (#33) as Nicky Catsburg takes the chequered flag 15. 02 INTER EUROPOL COMPETITION TAKES LMP2 WINFabio Scherer crosses the line to take victory in the LMP2 class for Inter Europol Competition (#34) 15. 01 #51 FERRARI ARE THE 2023 LE MANS WINNERSAnd it's official now. Alessandro Pier Guini takes the chequered flag and secures the win for Ferrari upon their return to the race One more lap and we're done here. Only the cruellest of fates could now take the win away from the #51 Ferrari crew 14. 45 ORDER AFTER FINAL STOPSFerrari's advantage over the Toyota still stands on well over one and a half minutes over the #8 Toyota who are heading home with Ryo Hirakawa behind the wheel. The Cadillacs follow in third and fourth, the #2 Cadillac steered by Earl Bamber ahead of Sebastien Bourdais' #3. Antonio Fuoco and the #50 Ferrari complete the top 5 14. 39 LATE SCARE FOR FERRARIHeartbeats are sure to have momentarily stopped in the Ferrari box as the car once more wouldn't fire up following Alessandro Pier Guini's final pit stop. This time though the issue wouldn't cost them quite as much and the #51 returns to the track still holding a healthy lead 14. 29 #5 PORSCHE IN TROUBLEThe nightmare is complete for Porsche as the #5 car of Michael Christensen is slowing on track. There is no evident damage, so the cause is likely a technical issue 14. 03 HIRAKAWA REMAINS IN THE TOYOTAThe #8 Toyota now also makes its way to the box. Ryo Hirakawa stays behind the wheel for the time being 13. 53 GIOVINAZZI COMPLETES HIS FINAL STINTThat's it for Antonio Giovinazzi who heads to the pits and hands the steering wheel over to Alessandro Pier Guini for the final hour. Still holding a two-minute advantage, without the Toyota having pitted yet, they are under no threat whatsoever It's all happening in France today. The men's French Open final is now live on Eurosport. It's Novak Djokovic versus Casper Ruud for the title - everything is set for a cracking match 13. 24 FERRARI ODDS-ON FOR WINThere is still just over one and a half hours to go, but, baring any disasters, this is Ferrari's for the taking. With a 3 minute and 22 second lead now, a lot has to happen for them to get caught - anything can happen in Le Mans though 13. 16 #8 TOYOTA SPINS (OUT OF CONTENTION)And that's Toyota's chances, realistically, gone. Ryo Hirakawa experiences a lock-up on the rear, spins into the gravel, and touches the barrier. There is some visible damage to the car - Hirakawa returns it to the box, but this will cost time Risk versus reward went against Toyota there and this might be the race decided Once more Ferrari call a pit stop shortly after Toyota. Antonio Giovinazzi stays in the car and rejoins the track with a 15-seconds lead Brendon Hartley concludes his stint, having extracted the maximum from the Toyota, and hands over the Ryo Hirakawa The swap to Hirakawa is an interesting one; from the outside, the intuitive action might have been to keep Hartley out and capitalise on having a driver that is already in the zone and has a rhythm going (assuming he is in a physical condition to keep driving). On the other hand, when a driver is verging on the side of exhaustion, that's when mistakes can happen 12. 57 SISTER SUPPORT FOR FERRARI AGAIN?The gap is down to 9 seconds, but Brendon Hartley is now running right behind the #50 sister Ferrari. However, Miguel Molina swiftly heads to the pits and the #9 Toyota is all good to go again 12. 45 GAP CLOSES SLIGHTLY, BUT FERRARI STAY IN CONTROLBrendon Hartley has reduced the gap to Antonio Giovinazzi to 11 seconds, but that seems to be it for the time being. Ferrari look well in control right now and able to manage their advantage 12. 26 FULL SERVICE FOR THE FERRARIJames Calado now too heads to the pits and hands the car over to Antonio Giovinazzi. That should be it for Calado who put in an exceptional shift for Ferrari throughout the hours Around 15 seconds now separate the Ferrari and the Toyota 12. 23 TOYOTA ONCE MORE FIRST TO PITThe #8 Toyota is in the box and Brendon Hartley gets some brand new medium tyres - 'Go get them. ,' the box instructs him It appears that they are giving Hartley fresh tyres for only one stint. Rather unusual and indicating a maximum attack approach 12. 10 REFLECTING ON TOYOTA'S STRATEGYToyota is giving clutching at straws at the moment; they are significantly inferior to the Ferrari pace-wise and, in consequence, in zugzwang to try everything. Unfortunately, it just doesn't seem to be happening for them. Running a third stint on their tyres should have earned them a time advantage in the box, but instead, Ferrari made four seconds good on them. Brendon Hartley is driving his heart out to cut the gap to James Calado but can't close in and, making matters worse, the very used tyres are causing him some trouble The latest call to keep Hartley out for a fourth stint only demonstrates that they're up against it and searching for any possible advantage they can create over the Ferrari. What they're hoping to achieve is likely to a) keep Hartley's rhythm going and not interrupt the flow, and b) keep Sebastien Buemi fresh and sharp for the closing stages 11. 58 GAP INCREASES AGAINJames Calado is gradually winning time on Brendon Hartley but can't run away with it (yet); the gap is now sitting on 14 seconds The Toyota box meanwhile pleads Hartley to control the brake pressure - mind his tyres are now on their third stint - as the Kiwi goes slightly off track at Mulsanne. Interestingly, they also inquire whether Hartley feels able to race a fourth stint (he does. ). This istrategy is likely aimed towards keeping Sebastien Buemi fresh and sharp for the closing stages 11. 44 NEXT SET OF PIT STOPS COMPLETEToyota are once more first to call to the box for a standard service. Crucially, they opt to keep Brendon Hartley on the same set of tyres. Ferrari come in a lap later, also choosing to keep going on the same tyres. Back out on track, the gap is now sitting on 10 seconds Curiously, the gap was around six seconds before, meaning that Ferrari won time on Toyota in the box. The advantage is now firmly with them 11. 35 NO PENALTY FOR HARTLEYThe consensus is that Brendon Hartley deliberately cut the chicane to pass the LMP2 car, but with the advantage gained not being significant enough, race direction have decided to only award a warning 11. 27 HARTLEY UNDER INVESTIGATIONThe jury is now officially out on Brendon Hartley's cut chicane as race direction are taking a closer look at it. The decisive factor will be whether they deem Hartley to have gained an advantage by going off track The Kiwi is looking back on great form again though, setting purple sectors 11. 25 PROBLEMS FOR THE TOYOTA?Brendon Hartley reports under steering issues on his vehicle Shortly after, he runs off and cuts the chicane - the jury is out on whether this was an actual driving error or a convenient way to overcome the LMP2 running ahead of him 11. 20 FRUSTRATION FOR HARTLEYNot only having to deal with the very feisty #50 Ferrari, Brendon Hartley is also forced to navigate some LMP2 traffic, costing him additional time. The gap to the #51 leading Ferrari is up to over five seconds again, but it's worth bearing in mind that James Calado is on fresher tyres 11. 16 TEAM WORK FROM FERRARIJames Calado his keeping Brendon Hartley behind him and is now getting help from his lapped #50 sister Ferrari. Miguel Molina closes in on the Toyota and does his manufacturer-colleagues a big favour by occupying Hartley, verging on the edge of what is too aggressive from a lapped car on a front runner The Toyota crew are meanwhile debating the possibility to run three stints on the same tyres. Saving a tyre change should give them a time advantage over the Ferrari in the box 11. 05 AITKEN IN THE GRAVELAlex Lynn is looking entirely luckless this weekend as he finds his Cadillac in the gravel again, this time at the Daytona chicane. It's game over for the team and the car needs to be recovered, causing a slow zone once more The gap is down to just over a second and Brendon Hartley is looking racey. He gets the go ahead from his box to apply some extra power in this stint 10. 58 FERRARI PIT TOO, GAP TIGHTENSAlessandro Pier Guidi also heads to the box and hands the #51 Ferrari over to James Calado. While they maintain the lead, Toyota once more win the pit stop battle and the gap is now down four seconds 10. 54 HARTLEY IN THE PITSThe #8 Toyota crew opt for an early pit stop while the slow zone is active, no doubt hoping to get the better of the Ferrari on strategy Same applies to the #23 Cadillac who are also doing a driver swap, introducing Renger Van Der Zande 10. 42 SLOW ZONE AGAIN, INSULT TO INJURY FOR PORSCHEPorsche are having a nightmare at Le Mans. After various issues to their hypercars, their LMGTE AM Proton entry is now out of the race as well as Michael Fassbender loses the car in the Porsche curves and encounters the barrier. The actor is able to get the car back to the pits before it's officially retired, but a slow zone is called out on track ‘That’s a big hit’ – Fassbender loses car in Porsche curves, careers into barrier 10. 35 NO CHANGES AT THE FRONTAlessandro Pier Guidi and Brendon Hartley are just about matching each other's pace at the moment, keeping the gap at around 19 seconds 10. 24 TRACK LIMITS WARNING FOR PIER GUIDINo panic for Ferrari at this point but something to keep an eye on as Alessandro Pier Guidi receives a track limits warning Meanwhile, Pier Guidi laps Earl Bamber in the #2 Cadillac, meaning there are now only two cars left on the lead lap 10. 21 NO ISSUES IN THE BOX THIS TIMERelief among the Ferrari crew as their stop goes smoothly and Alessandro Pier Guidi heads back out, refuelled and in the lead. Toyota complete a driver swap, Brendon Hartley now behind the wheel, and are trailing the Ferrari by just over 18 seconds Both the Ferrari and the Toyota receive the 'box this lap' call 10. 18 REFLECTING ON FERRARI'S PACEThe fact that Alessandro Pier Guidi is almost nine seconds in the lead is quite astonishing; considering their spinner during the night and them having spent around four and a half minutes more at the box than the #8 Toyota, one wouldn't think they would be anywhere near the top. If it hadn't been for those issues, the Ferrari would be leading by well over a lap at this point Alessandro Pier Guidi currently runs 6. 5 seconds ahead of Sebastien Buemi, proving the Ferrari's superior pace However, there are still question marks behind Ferrari's fire up issues - and whether the same could happen again at their next pit stop. At this point, Toyota's job is to stay in the game, play their part well, and potentially pounce when the opportunity arises - still almost five hours to go It's all Ferrari versus Toyota at the moment, but it's worth mentioning that Earl Bamber is third in #2 Cadillac. He's trailing by more than three minutes, but, crucially, he's the only other car on the lead lap Scott Dixon in the #3 Cadillac follows in fourth with Paul Di Resta and the #93 Peugeot in fifth. The gaps are significant here 09. 48 PIER GUIDI REGAINS THE LEADEdging ever closer to the Toyota, Alessandro Pier Guidi pounces going onto the Hunaudieres straight. He accelerates just about past Sebastien Buemi who tries to fight back, but the Ferrari comes out top as the duo brake into the chicane Sensible from Buemi here who likely soft-pedalled into the corner to avoid contact and, in consequence, damage to the car. Ferrari are looking superior on pure pace, it is now down to Toyota to outsmart them on strategy Toyota are in the lead now, but the Ferrari has been the faster car in the latest stages. Alessandro Pier Guidi has closed the gap and a move doesn't look too far away 09. 38 FERRARI INCH CLOSERAlessandro Pier Guidi is gradually closing the gap to Sebastien Buemi and almost within punching distance Meanwhile, the Ferrari crew have reported that the issue in pit lane was that the car simply wouldn't fire up and a power cycle was required. However, there now seem to be problems with the radio, the box apparently unable to hear their driver 09. 31 FERRARI STUCK IN PIT LANE, TOYOTA TAKE LEADThe #51 Ferrari heads to the box for a driver change as Alessandro Pier Guidi takes the wheel. However, issues are keeping the car stationary. The #8 Toyota squad are there to capitalise. having mirrored their opponents and also come in, they now overtake in the pit lane. When the Ferrari finally gets going again, they are just under six seconds behind the Toyota Ferrari get stuck in pit lane, Toyota take lead 09. 18 DA COSTA IN TROUBLEAntonio Felix Da Costa (#38 Jota-Porsche) encounters the barriers in the Indianapolis curve. He nurses the visibly damaged car to the box, but a slow zone is called to clear debris off the track and fix the barrier Some teams are opting for a stop during the slow zone, others are speculating on a safety car 09. 10 LMP2 AND LMGTE AM STANDINGS UPDATEWhile it's Ferrari versus Toyota in the hypercars class, here is an update on how things are shaping up in the other classes
The gap between Antonio Giovinazzi (#51 Ferrari) and Sebastien Buemi (#8 Peugeot) is fairly constant at around one minute now. As it stands, the win is going down between these two teams as Richard Westbrook in the #2 Cadillac in third is trailing by moe than three minutes. However, another safety car could change everything 08. 43 FERRARI PIT IN LEADThe leading #51 Ferrari comes to the box for a standard service. They rejoin the track still in the lead, and also regain their advantage when Sebastian Buemi also navigates the #8 Peugeot to the pits. The gap now sits on around a minute As the race here goes into its crucial stages, don't forget there's more top-class sport on today On June 10 and 11, strap yourself in for a live sport rollercoaster ride.

Here is a chronological recap of what happened Porsche's nightmare continued as they were forced to steer the #5 car back to the garage to fix a leaking radiator. The works cost them a damning 23 minutes The #8 Toyota squad opted for an early pit stop under full course yellow, caused by a crash of the #63 car in the LMP2 field. However, they didn't complete a 'full pit stop' and rather only refuelled a couple of litres, limiting the probably advantage of an early stop. The #94 Peugeot inherited the lead with the Toyota rejoining in third ‘Trouble. Big Trouble. ’ - #63 Prema Racing crashes out of 24 Hours of Le Mans The #50 Ferrari too headed for the pits under yellow to change the brakes, sacrificing quite a bit of time. In fact, they lost significant time due to further work required on the hybrid system's cooling. They are back out on track but, on a several-lap deficit, likely out of the running for the win Pit stops followed for the leading duo of the #94 Peugeot and the #2 Cadillac. Nico Muller just managed to maintain the lead, narrowly ahead of Sebastien Buemi in the #8 Toyota who swiftly claimed the position A couple more pit stops followed before disaster struck for Peugeot. Running in P3, Gustavo Menezes lost control and found the barriers in the #94 car. He nursed the damaged car back to the box ‘That is quite a big hit. ’ - #94 Peugeot TotalEnergies involved in big crash Sebastien Buemi (#8 Toyota) and James Calado (#51 Ferrari) battled it out at the front. However, Ferrari eventually took the advantage in the pits when they only refuelled while Toyota made a tyre swap Toyota regained the lead on track but couldn't shake off the Ferrari. Meanwhile, Laurens Vanthoor touched the barrier in the #6 Porsche but was able to continue Alessandro Pier Guidi closed the gap to the Toyota on track just before both cars headed to the box. Service was done on either side, but Ferrari came out the better, only swapping tyres and drivers while the Toyota needed additional work done on the front Elsewhere, Sebastien Bourdais (#3 Cadillac) and Kevin Estre (#6 Porsche) battled it out for P4. Their fight, however, came to a halt when Estre was cut by an LMP2 car and hit the barriers near the Porsche curves. He nursed the car back to the box with damage to the floor Both the Ferrari and the Toyota pitted again, swapping to Antonio Giovinazzi and Sebastien Buemi respectively, and to new tyres on either side Good morning and welcome back to the live coverage of the Le Mans 24 Hours. We'll catch you up on what happened during the night and will be with you now until the end of the race Antonio Giovinazzi is currently leading in the #51 Ferrari, chased by Sebastien Buemi in the #8 Toyota And that concludes our coverage of the centenary Le Mans 24 Hours for now. You can still watch the twilight hours racing live on Eurosport It's been an eventful race so far to say the least and, incredibly, the #8 Toyota that took the lead on the opening lap and went on to meander through the field, is back on top of proceedings after nine and a half hours We'll be back from 8am BST to bring you live coverage of the crucial stages of the race 00. 20 TOYOTA TAKE THE LEAD AT THE RESTARTNico Muller initially manages to hold the lead at the restart, but the Peugeot driver eventually has to surrender to Ryo Hirakawa who puts the #8 Toyoto on P1. Antonio Fuoco follows in third ahead of his Ferrari-colleague Alessandro Pier Guidi. Alex Lynn completes the top 5 in the Cadillac The race proceeds after another lengthy safety car phase 00. 10 RESTART MOMENTS AWAYEverything is pointing towards an imminent restart. Once the field is organised, we should get back underway - shouldn't be too long now 23. 51 TOYOTA IN FUEL-SAVING MODERyo Hirakawa is instructed to engage more engine braking to save fuel, likely a reaction to the prolonged safety car phase The #7 Toyota meanwhile is now finally cleared off the track. Merging is about to begin and we're approaching an end to the safety car 23. 27 LEADERS PEUGEOT PIT, MAINTAIN P1A pit stop for the #94 Peugeot does very little to the order as their already substantial lead allows them to rejoin the track still in P1 In fact, their immediate pursuers too head to the box a lap later. The exception is the #8 Toyota, piloted by Ryo Hirakawa, that moves up into second as a result The safety car is out to allow for the track to be cleared of debris and barriers to be repaired as required 23. 10 THAT'S IT FOR THE #7 TOYOTAKamui Kobayashi has vacated his car and the #7 Toyota crew are acknowledging that they are out of the race for good The race is now under full course yellow conditions 23. 02 PEUGEOT LEAD AMIDST DRAMAIt might have fallen off the radar amidst the drama and chaos, but Nico Muller in the #94 Peugeot has inherited the race lead. Nicklas Nielsen is third in the #50 Ferrari followed by Earl Bamber's Cadillac 23. 00 #7 TOYOTA ALSO HIT BY INCIDENTAnd that's the #7 Toyota of Kamui Kobayashi now stationary on the track. A slow zone was called going into Tertre Rouge which, apparently, wasn't acknowledged by all drivers, resulting in a multi-car incident with the Toyota coming out of it poorly 22. 57 FERRARI SPINS OUT OF THE LEADDisaster for Alessandro Pier Guidi and the #51 Ferrari as they spin out of the lead in the Mulsanne chicane and are stranded in the gravel. The car is returned to the track with some assistance and Pier Guidi can resume the race, but the lead is very much gone 22. 38 VANWALL ISSUES COST FERRARIAs the #4 Vanwall, one of only three non-hydro-powered hypercars, stops between the Dunlop curves and Tertre Rouge with a technical issue, a slow zone is called to recover the car. With the leading #51 Ferrari of Alessandro Pier Guidi having to comply with the slow zone but the track having been cleared by the time its pursuers reached that section, the Ferrari lost a good chunk of time. The gap at the front is no longer more than a minute but still a healthy 47 seconds 22. 25 #75 PORSCHE OUT OF ACTIONThe #75 Porsche of Mathieu Jaminet, Nick Tandy, and Felipe Nasr, last seen at slow speed off-track, is now officially retired from the race due to technical problems 22. 20 LMP2 AND LMGTE AM STANDINGS UPDATEAs things calm down a bit in the hypercars class, here is an update on the standings elsewhere
22. 17 BLOMQVIST CALLED TO MEDICAL CENTREBit of a curious one as Tom Blomqvist, racing in the LMP2 class, is called back to the box and onto the medical centre by race direction mid-stint. The reason is rather unclear at the moment, but it has certainly caused some hectic in the United Autosports garage 22. 07 BOTH FERRARIS NOW ON SLICKS, MAINTAIN LEADAlessandro Pier Guidi now also pits for slick tyres and, courtesy of their massive advantage, rejoins the track still in the lead Kamui Kobayashi too brings his Toyota to the box and comes back out in third, behind the #94 Peugeot, now piloted by Nico Muller, but ahead of Nicklas Nielsen's Ferrari 21. 57 PIT STOPS AND TYRE CHANGES BEGINThe #50 Ferrari of Nicklas Nielsen is first to pit and change back to slicks. Ferrari will monitor Nielsen's times closely now to make the right strategy call for their leading #51 car 21. 54 SLOW MOVEMENT FROM THE #75Mathieu Jaminet is inching his Porsche along the side of the track at very slow speed, running on electric battery power alone after a restart The rain is now significantly lighter and has stopped altogether in some areas. However, the track is still wet in sections 21. 47 NIGHTMARE CONTINUES FOR PORSCHEPorsche continue to go through all circles of hell in Le Mans as the #75 car, currently piloted by Mathieu Jaminet, stops side-track near Tetre Rouge with no indication to start again any time soon. Some speculation here, but this very much looks like a technical failure 21. 43 FERRARI ON THE CHARGEWhile Alessandro Pier Guidi managing a one-minute advantage for the #51 Ferrari at the front, Nicklas Nielsen has made up some ground in the #50 Ferrari and is running in fourth Meanwhile Kamui Kobayashi's charge has come to a halt as the Japanese driver can't seem to find any more time on Loic Duval 21. 35 PIER GUIDI ON THE PACEAlessandro Pier Guidi is putting in some shift for the #51 just now. The Italian has stormed to a massive lead of more than a minute, taking around 20 seconds per lap out of his opponents Behind, Kamui Kobayashi in the #7 Toyota is inching closer to Loic Duval who is running the Peugeot in P2 Richard Westbrook falls victim to the conditions as he comes off track and into the gravel. He manages to avoid the barriers though and rejoins the track in fourth 21. 20 NO SAFETY CAR (YET), WET TYRES ONThe safety car remains in the box for the time being, but all hypercars are now on wet tyres. Alessandro Pier Guidi leads for Ferrari with Loic Duval and Peugeot in second, around half a minute behind. Kamui Kobayashi, who is now steering the #7 Toyota, is third, closely followed by Richard Westbrook in the #2 Cadillac Dark and wet, it's extremely challenging out there just now It's brutal out there just now. The rain takes its toll with several spins and crashes across the track. Some cars have already swapped to wet tyres, others are speculating for a safety car to pit There was talk of more rain and it is here now. There's fairly heavy showers on parts of the track 21. 03 PIT STOPS COMPLETE, FERRARI 1-2With everyone now having completed their pit stops, Ferrari are back on top, Alessandro Pier Guidi leading Nicklas Nielsen. Loic Duval follows in third The #75 Porsche of Nick Tandy, Felipe Nasr, and Mathieu Jaminet sacrificed some additional time in the box to change the steering wheel Word of more rain to come is spreading 20. 51 TOYOTA BACK IN FRONT AFTER SEVERAL PIT STOPSAntonio Giovinazzi and Alex Lynn head to the box for their seventh and sixth stop respectively. MIguel Molina remains in the lead with Loic Duval's Peugeot now his first chaser, but only one lap later, they both too pit Toyota inherit a one-two lead, Brendon Hartley in the #8 ahead of Jose Maria Lopez in the #7, while Nick Tandy is third in the Porsche. All three are due a pit stop though 20. 49 INFO ON THE #5 PORSCHEPorsche have provided an update on what happened to the #5 Porsche of Dane Cameron, Michael Christensen, and Frederic Makowiecki; they report the car had to be re-started due to a sensor issue and then suffered a slow puncture The headlights are on as it's gradually getting darker in Le Mans and the (track) temperature drops. Sunset is forecast for 21. 57 local time (20. 54 BST), but the sky is looking very cloudy. The track isn't fully dry yet The Ferrari duo currently hold a roughly 16-seconds advantage 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 5 update following a big fight between Ferrari and PorscheBack underway following a lengthy safety car period, it was all action in the fifth hour of the race. Here is a summary of what happened 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 5 update following a big fight between Ferrari and Porsche 20. 17 TANDY PITS FROM LEADPorsche's lead is short lived as Nick Tandy now heads to the box and the Ferrari one-two is restored, Miguel Molina running ahead of Antonio Giovinazzi. Loic Duval is now fourth in the Peugeot with Alex Lynn's Cadillac in fourth 20. 15 PORSCHE DRAMA CONTINUESYet another setback for Porsche as the #5 car of Dane Cameron is inexplicably slow on the Hunaudieres straight. Frederic Makowiecki takes over after a pit stop, but the team has now been lapped That leaves the #75 of Nick Tandy, Felipe Nasr, and Mathieu Jaminet Porsche's only car in the running up front. The good news, however, is that the Jota-Porsche crew did an outstanding repair job and the #38 is back out on track with Will Stevens behind the wheel That's it with the Ferrari lead for the time being as both Miguel Molina and Antonia Giovinazzi head to the pits Nick Tandy now leads with the #75 Porsche, initially followed by Brendon Hartley's #8 Toyota, but the Kiwi is next to make his way to the box 19. 53 HIGH SPEED CRASH FOR LEADING PORSCHETough times for Jota-Porsche as Yifei Ye misses his braking point at the Porsche curves, goes through the gravel, and into the barrier. He returns to the track with a heavily damaged car and nurses it back to the box. With debris left on the tarmac, the race goes into full course yellow Ferrari inherit a one-two lead 19. 51 PENALTY FOR CAMERONIt's a drive through penalty for the #5 Porsche as Dane Cameron is found guilty of overtaking under safety car conditions. This will cost the team between 20 to 25 seconds 19. 36 TYRE TROUBLE FOR ESTREThat's likely it for the victory ambitions of the #6 Porsche team as they suffer damage to the right rear tyre at the start of the Hunaudieres straight. Kevin Estre is nursing his vehicle back to the box, but he has a very long way to go The #5 Porsche has its own troubles as Dane Cameron goes off track near the esses. Ferrari capitalise with both Miguel Molina and Antonio Giovinazzi flying past. To make matters worse, Cameron is now under investigation for a potential overtake behind the safety car The safety car is called back and a number of cars follow it into the pits, including the two Toyotas On the track, a feisty battle ensues with some minor contact and off-track excursions. Dane Cameron as well as both Ferraris fly past Alex Lynn and engage in a fight between themselves. Cameron makes the best of the Mulsanne straight to get the better of his opponents and when Antonio Giovinazzi tries to retaliate, he instead loses a position to his Ferrari-colleague Miguel Molina. Meanwhile, Yifei Ye turned up the pressure to take P1 off Gustavo Menzes who keeps dropping down the order on wet tyres and now heads for the pits 'Just relentless’ – Ferrari and Porsche battle it out 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 4 Update as Peugeot assume leadIt might have been marked by a lengthy safety car period, but the fourth hour of the race still delivered excitement. Here's a recap 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 4 update Peugeot assume lead 19. 00 END OF SAFETY CAR IN SIGHT?The rain looks to have stopped throughout the track now and the field is being organised behind the safety car. We should be getting back underway again soon Almost all hypercars have now changed back onto slick tyres, the exception being Gustavo Menezes', leaving the #94 Peugeot in the lead from Kevin Estre in the #6 Porsche and Jose Maria Lopez in the #7 Toyota. Brendon Hartley follows in the #8 Toyota while Nick Tandy completes the top 5 in the #75 Porsche 18. 55 LMP2 AND LMGTE AM STANDINGSAs the safety car stays out, here are the standings in the LMP2 and LMGTE AM classes
18. 48 GAME OVER FOR #93 PEUGEOTJean-Eric Vergne in the #93 Peugeot (not the leading Peugeot) is among the first two drivers to pit and change back on slicks, the other being Dan Cameron in the #5 Porsche. An uncharacteristic error from Vergne on his outlap, however, sees him lose the car and spin into the gravel where it stays stranded and has to be evacuated 'A big mistake' - Game over for #93 Peugeot 18. 31 LEADER BEING INVESTIGATEDRace direction have reported an investigation over the leading Peugeot regarding a possible pit stop infringement 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 3 update as rain causes chaosThe rain has arrived in Le Mans and caused quite a bit of chaos. Here is a recap of the third hour of the race 24 Hours of Le Mans - Hour 3 update as rain causes chaos As the safety car is still out in Le Mans, don't forget there's more top-class sports action on this weekend Dubbed the Weekend of Champions, owing to the sheer amount of world-class action across multiple sports, over 300 Warner Bros.

' - Button hails 'phenomenal' NASCAR at Le MansAway from the hypercars class, Hendrick Motorsports made headlines by bringing a stock car to Le Mans, piloted by Jenson Button, Jimmie Johnson, and Mike Rockenfeller. They are currently running in 44th overall 'I thought they were crazy. ' - Button hails 'phenomenal' NASCAR at Le Mans 18. 10 FERRARI AND TOYOTA ALSO PITFerrari and Toyota now surrender to the weather and pit for rain tyres - all hypercars are now running on that compound That leaves Gustavo Menezes and Peugeot in the lead ahead of the Jota-Porsche of Yifei Ye. The Ferraris follow in third and fourth from Alex Lynn's Cadillac in fifth 18. 05 CHAOS AND PIT STOPSMultiple teams opt for a pit stop and swap to wet tyres. Interestingly, most manufacturers are splitting their strategy with one of their cars pitting and the other staying out, the exception being the two Ferraris, now holding a one-two lead, and the two Toyotas who stake everything on one card 17. 54 SAFETY CAR OUT AS RAIN ARRIVESThe rain does indeed find the track, or at least parts of it - while the track is getting increasingly wetter from Indianapolis through to start/finish, the Hunnaudieres straight is still dry. One to profit though is Gustavo Menezes in the Peugeot who excells in the mixed conditions.
