Calado’s Ferrari is closely pursued by Phil Hanson’s #83 AF Corse Ferrari, with Will Stevens’ #12 JOTA Cadillac and the #6 Porsche Penske of Laurens Vanthoor hot on their heels. The battle at the front is heating up as the #8 Toyota GR010 Hybrid Hypercar is making a relentless charge, closing in on the leading Ferraris during the night.

Toyota’s strategy of triple-stinting the soft Michelin tires has proven effective as the temperatures dropped, giving them an edge in the pursuit of the frontrunners. The competition is fierce, with the #12 JOTA Cadillac and the #7 Toyota showcasing impressive pace despite facing challenges on the track.

Meanwhile, in the LMP2 class, Nick Yelloly leads the pack in the #43 Inter Europol Competition Oreca, followed closely by Franck Perera in the #48 VDS Panis Racing Oreca. The battle for supremacy in the LMGT3 class is intense, with Richard Lietz fighting for the lead in the #92 Manthey Porsche against Alessio Rovera in the #21 AF Corse Ferrari.

As the race unfolds, unexpected incidents and intense rivalries are shaping the outcome of this legendary endurance event. Stay tuned for more updates as the drama continues to unfold at Le Mans.
