When do you get labeled with "retired" at le mans? as it seems some cars take hours to repaire soemthing and then get back out so, is it up to the team to say "we have retired" or do you have some sort of time limit before which you have to get back to the track? also if you are stuck somewhere on the circuit can marshals drag you back to the pits and you can continue afterwards?

Yes, basically, regarding the retirement. It's listed as "pits" until then.

#89 Porsche (4th in class) just broken down right after the pit-entry, on the start/finish straight.

Hmm... I guess barring any issues, the most interest for me will be can the Astons hold onto 4th and 6th overall. The 6th placed car is 2 laps ahead of the #16 Pescarolo... not enough.

Lead Aston (#009) is in the pits from 4th overall. Corvette takes that place, and the GT1 lead - the Aston still in the pits, apparently with a clutch problem.

There we go - formation finish. Audi 1, 3. Pescarolo finish 2nd in LMP1.

RML win the LMP2 class.

Panoz the LMGT2.

Yes, well done to the Audi's on that achievement, and well done to the Corvette team too!

But hard luck to those poor guys whose car retired with only 3 minutes left.

Well done to yet another Audi win, they really are unstopable!

From what I hear Mr Pescarolo will be taking charge of the Peugeot entry for next year, so its then end of Pescarolo Sport for now....

Real good race to follow. Unlucky for the chaps that retired 3-5mins from the end, the Aston that dropped and the Porsche that led majority of the race in his class before having that gearbox problem (the LMGT2 class?)

Nice to see the Audi win, but I'd have liked it to be McNish that won it. Good for the Corvette to get 4th overall!

But the reliability this year seems worse than last years... half the field didn't finish!
