@graeme_lowdon Obviously that should have been sent by @GeoffCollinsF1 :-)

@graeme_lowdon Ouch! Was that photo in the replies your leg? Nasty, hope it’s recovering. Good to hear you’re running though - marathon training?

Dawn at Le Mans and a pit stop for car 5 #LeMans24

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Unfortunately we have retired #6. We suffered an electrical issue and couldnt restart the car. Tough day. #LeMans24

[Manor @ManorWEC]

No luck so far with firing up #6. Still trying though. #5 back out after another stop.

[Manor @ManorWEC]

#6 is stopped between the two chicanes, the engine has stopped. We are sending a couple of mechanics out to talk to Oliver.

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Nine hours gone and currently both cars in the garage...

[Manor @ManorWEC]

@axhrs Yes sorry, normal WEC races are open paddock...

[Manor @ManorWEC]

@axhrs come and see us if you’re in the paddock!

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Pit space is very limited at LeMans, so when there’s a car in the garage next to us we have to overshoot and push back.

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Seven hours into the race. Alex takes over #6

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Twenty past nine here at Le Mans and light is beginning to fade. Oliver T brings #6 in for a fuel stop.

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Just coming up to quarter distance (time) at six hours. P16 (#5) and P20 (#6)

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Five hours gone, #5 and #6 are P19 and P21

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Four hours in and #5 is now ahead of #6 after a long stop to go over systems. P16 and 23

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Sharleen Spiteri, lead singer of @texastheband, drops in to chat to @graeme_lowdon (cc @WendyLowdon :-) )

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Three hour update. Oliver R in #6 is P15. Leo in #5 is P19

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Two hours 30 minutes in and #6 is P16, #5 21st

[Manor @ManorWEC]

Stop/Go penalty for #6 - Leaving pits with spinning wheels

[Manor @ManorWEC]

One hour in and #5 drops to P24 as it puts for fuel and an electric check. Rejoins safely.
