    Talk about building identical cars! Identical problems at identical times pretty much...

    #55 Mazda back on the track. Looks like the fix is a quick one but the #77 is broken down in the bus stop so it will lose laps while stuck there.

    Full course caution. #31 didn't pit so that they could lead at the 6hr mark. After that mark they pitted and #10 resumed the lead.

    So Alonso's car in first, Rubens in second, and JPM in 3rd. What an F1 talent lineup...

    What...? No LMP2 love? Haha. Yes, I really wish the C7.R and GT hadn't had those self-inflicted wounds for more exciting racing. Would be cool for the Houston 488 team to pull off the GTLM win.

    #77 Mazda DPi has called it quits. They're done. NBC reporting no fuel pressure at all. Seems like something they could fix so I'm wondering if they mean no oil pressure?

    #25 BMW just hit the infield wall trying to set up a pass on the #66 Ford. Don't know if they'll report on it but it definitely hit the wall on the in car camera.

    Flat for the #52 GTD Ferrari. Impact with the #47 GTD Lamborghini.

    Yes, glad they didn't give any detail on that instead of covering a driver massage then going to commercial break. Grrr.

    Seems like the car is okay. Probably just hit the door.

    This race for the overall lead is intense!

    Actually, the #51. Self-inflicted damage, which is unfortunate because the car was contending. Mathias Lauda was driving it for a while. Lauda in a Ferrari - where have we seen that before?

    How on Earth is the #3 Corvette back on the lead lap and in second place!?

    #3 Corvette has electrical issues. They do not have full data visibility for the car's telemetry. Electrical issues rarely get better so this has to be a huge concern for them for the remainder of the race.

    Emergency pit stop for #6 DPi. Damage to the front right. Replay show the car off the track but no damage at that time. Front end replaced and the car is back under way.

    Edit: Hit the #19 GTD car going through the Kink. Looked like the GTD car was not going to make the corner and the #6 got taken for a ride.

    Vettes running 1-2 in GTLM now. Wow.

    GTLM Porsches are faaaast. They cruised into first and second.

    Yes they did. Ooof. Still, that #3 Vette has fought back tremendously after that pit incident. Could be an exciting finish.
