Here we go!!!
#5 porsche spins on the first lap, but everyone else seems to have made it unscathed. Close moment with the 51 passing the 83, but the ferraris are 1-2-3 50-51-83.
5:41 the 36 alpine passes the 83 ferrari. Some opinions say he forced him into the gravel. the midpack race is insane.
all i read is ferrari qualy 1-2-3 they gonna win this easy but its not, plenty of racing to go that alpine pass..wow
5:14, the peugeot sends it going into eau rouge, and the 83 has to lose momentum. loses 2 more places to BMW and Alpine. 99 porsche blows up a gearbox. 5:11 FCY for the 99 GT cars do pit stops, but the FCY is super quick. This will benefit the corvettes later. sjd
The 83 has lost a lot of pace. They were saying that tire deg would factor in. pit stops are due for Hypercar. 5:02 83 into the garage. Reports and rumors at 5:00 that the LH turbo failed.
4:46 VSC for a GT collision with the 31 BMW that has broken the front steering. 31 in the gravel. GT Lexus pulled over on the straight...unrelated.
4:36, lots of cars pit for drivers and tires. 51 looked like it was going to stay out, but everyone else pitted for tires. Theirs were 36 laps old and they'd have been sitting ducks. Hypercars all pitted. Safety car comes to bunch entire field up.
3:33 51 ferrari gets two spots back from the Peugeots... back to 3rd. 3:30 Image Unavailable, Please Login

14 mins to go: the 51 has to stop again for a splash. Mick Schumacher is in the Alpine and is on the podium... 12 mins: 51 pits. and is out before the 50 and mick show up. sjd
