At one hour and forty minutes in, more damage to the #88 Porsche. Full course yellow. The #70 Ferrari has a flat, perhaps because of the debris that caused the FCY. |

The #64 Corvette has crashed with Marcel Fassler driving—contact with one of the GTE AM Porsches. They are almost certainly done—huge damage. Marcel is okay. Oliver Gavin looks striken. |

The #64 Corvette is done—it's being hauled off the track. I feel for Gavin—I have a sense (based on no actual data) that there are big changes coming to the Corvette Racing team when the C7.R is retired at the end of this year. At age 46, he may wonder if he'll ever get another chance at Le Mans. |
