Looking good for British teams in the lower classes too

Magnificent drives from Estre and Tandy, but especially Estre, frightening the Audi off the road smile

Quite how the No 1 Audi hasn't had a penalty....

Some of the driving by the backmarkers when being lapped has been debatable at best, Gary Paffet a major culprit there

Agreed - they need to back off as it could easily ruin the race.

Big off for a Porsche - full yellows, good chance the barrier will need to be repaired and there's only 22 minutes left!

No-one who was at Le Mans a few years ago wants to see another Simmonsen have a big crash

Good race - one more lap and we'd have seen a really good fight but immense after 24hrs.

Cracking for Porsche too.

Loved it. Shame about there being no English radio coverage else I'd have been able to keep in touch with things better but had an amazing time all the same regardless of the rain. Stuck it out till the end and took the opportunity Sunday morning to get the car packed! Now on a bit of a road trip: Frankfurt, Nuremburg and Paris before we come back. Will post some photos and video later on, most likely to Instagram first: @huw.bowen1!

This years race confirmed as behind closed doors and 24 hours, not the 25 that was talked about
