As the sun is setting at the Circuit De La Sarthe, One of the Corvettes cut through a corner sand trap, nearly taking out the number 1 position, Audi R10 driven by Allan McNish. Slight contact was made, causing the R10 and Corvette to both have to pit. The #2 R10 had to have the rear engine cowl replaced after loosing part of the rear air diffuser in the collision. The final bit of sun is just now dipping out of sight, but the crazy fans have gone nowhere. Helicopters continue to strafe the circuit. Things on the track seem rather calm, however the tension is high in the paddock, with crews running too and fro getting the next batch of tires ready for the cars, moving spare parts to the pits, and trying not to run the spectators over with their golf carts.
