But for medium tires they used ''M'' which makes sense, obviously.

Yes M for Medium, S for Soft and H for Hard, but the tires are usually marked with L for Left and R for Right for which side of the car it's for.

Edit.

But some have marked tires RL which stands for Rear Left, I missed the live picture from when they showed the tires, so I'm wild guessing L stood for Left.

#3 receives a stop and go for tire pressure issues.

Porsche may be receiving penalties for potential unsafe rejoin, and passing under safety car.

 

[IforceV8]

Was that Britta Roeske in the Porsche garage?

 

[Obelisk]

Hendricks #24 has moved up to 43rd place, just as a side note. One of the GTE Ferraris went in a wall.

 

[IngRobNy]

Cars still in trouble due to damp track...

Nono, that's not what I meant! Here in the Eurosport international stream they showed a little graph with the Toyota with arrows pointing at the tires with the capital letter ''L''. Previously they showed the same graph for the Ferrari and Toyota with ''S'' and ''M'' for medium and soft tires. Not sure what L is.

Oh okay, I'm not sure either what that could be.

 

[Northstar]

Big hit for the leader!

Launching it over the curb. Talk about making a bad situation worse

 

[Cano]

Naaaaaaked Porsche

 

[Tired Tyres]

Full course yellow used at last. No need for stupid safety cars

 

[Vinylshark]

Jesus, that pit entry. Completely unneccessary to cause any more damage to the car, even if you wanna get back as quickly as possible.

 

[Michael88]

Naaaaaaked Porsche

Dude flung the Porsche into the pits as if it were GT7 with damage turned off lol.

 

[Earth]

The conditions are contributing to these driving errors but I also think the fact this race is so close and intense is contributing to hit. You can't just ride around

He did have a lack of downforce.....

 

[IforceV8]

He did have a lack of downforce.....

And IQ points

 

[Obelisk]

Finally saw the replay on the JOTA hit. Good lord, that looked painful.

 

[Savolainen83]

Something fishy going on at the Daytona chicane, three cars having issues at the same time.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Like the commentator said, 11 of the 14 hypercars have led. This is among the very best Le Mans in years.

 

[Populuxe]

To be fair to Ye, I’m going to guess he doesn’t have a lot of experience entering the pits without any downforce.

It’s certainly got me loving this race again.

 

[Savolainen83]

Porsches having lots of issues at the moment.

 

[Vinylshark]

Yes, that's why you shouldn't try to enter the pitlane with the same speed you normally do.

 

[skazz]

So far Porsche LMH was going great, but suddenly a bunch of them had issues. Toyota had some problems and lost out a bit on pit strategy so far. Cadillac likewise had a bunch of issues. Ferrari hasn't suffered yet, let's see how they hold on.

Another 4-8 hours will give us a better view on luck/issues.

 

[JohnBM01]

Is it just me, or does it seem like nobody is really dominating Le Mans in the Hypercar class? In older times, it's "tell me what else is new" if Audi led Le Mans in the 2000s or if Toyota led in the late 2010s. Different cars leading in the Hypercar class. Though if I did see someone who led for a good amount of time so far, it's Ferrari. I'm kind of pleased seeing Ferrari lead in their first top-level sportscar racing since my beloved Ferrari 333SP.

 

[GlamFM]

Absolutely amazing race so far.

Crazy to me it still hasn't settled.

Still undecided who I´m rooting for.

I'm rooting for the Toyota #8, have done that for some years now and Corvette in GTE class.

 

[Downhill Dino]

I'd really like to see the Peugeot pull it off but they probably don't have it down yet this year. Otherwise I'll go for another Toyota win.

 

[Michael88]

I'm rooting for the Peugeots and Ferraris. I find the rear-wing-less concept of the Peugeot daring and fun, I want them to do well. Ferrari is by far the prettiest car of the field and its their big return so I want them to do well too.
If either car wins I'm happy
