Is it bad that I kind of want the #1 to have an issue to even things out?
Pretty much all of GTP who isn't a Porsche supporter are praying for the #1 to break down.

#9 and dead again. These cars are fragile again. We've got used to 24 hour sprints in recent years. This is old school stuff.

Speak for yourself. I like sportsmanship and do NOT wish someone else misfortune, just because someone else has a lot of it.

Plot twist: The #1 suffers a catastrophic hybrid failure like the rest, promoting the leading LMP2 into the overall lead, with the #2 trying to chase down LMP2 in the dying hours, a-la LM 1995.

Not great.
The 63 is still on the lead lap, but quite a ways back in 8th place.
The 64 is 4 laps down.
The 50 Larbre is also 4 laps down in GTE AM

Who was it who collided with the #9 in the first place?

#7 and #8 were mechanical problems. #9 is totally driver error, Lapierre's inlap was massively over-ambitious and it has thrown away a very good shot at a 2nd place finish.

To be honest, all this is doing is making me even more of Toyota fan, more than what I already am, and I've been supporting Toyota, especially at Le Man, for some time...

It seems to me that nobody. The tyre simply went off when he leaned into it.

After seeing the replay, the whole increased speed of the P2 class that the commentators were talking about at the beginning of the race has really got me scratching my head.
When the hell did P2 cars get so damn powerful in a straight line? I remember when P1s were blowing past em in their sleep.

No, in one of the replays, you can see him passing the #25 into turn 1. He went wide in the corner to avoid the car exiting the pits and lazed into the side of #25. This punctured the tyre and also sent the Manor into the wall.

He spun because the contact punctured the tyre. #25 was then sent straight-on, out of sight of the camera from the Toyota. it would be nice to see another angle of it.

Now I'm rooting for the Fords even more now for the GTE-Pro win, after all Toyota are out of the running
