The two cars finished in the gravel bed and had to be towed away. The LM P1 Oreca has has a damaged left rear axle.
- Whilst the #8 Peugeot driven by Sarrazin was trying to catch him, the Audi’s driver laps were averaging 3’30 and McNish is still a danger to the leading #9 Peugeot as Alexander Wurz is only one lap ahead of him.
- At 03.27 AM, the Portuguese drives into his pit when the 3rd Peugeot 908 Hdi FAP was 10th. The mechanics changed the skidplate, probably due to a vibration. The factory car rejoined at 03.37 AM.
- This 8th retirement, the car of the Team LNT driven by Nigel Moore has retired due to a fire.
The driver is the youngest driver this year, only 17, but he didn't quite beat the record of Ricardo Rodriguez who is the youngest ever to compete in the race.
- #33 Speedy Racing Sebah Lola was supposed to stop for a simple refuelling visit and tyre change but instead was pulled inside its garage.
Three mechanics worked on its rear left and used lots of tape to patch it up. 7 minutes later, the Lola rejoined, still in 3rd place in the class and still driven by Jonny Kane.
