Le Mans 2008 Blog
One hour to go - and boy this is exciting!
There is now only one hour to the end Le Mans 2008, and what and exciting finish. The #2 Audi with Tom Kristensen is still in the lead, even after his brush with the #32 Zytek. Nicolas Minassian in the #7 Peugeot (in second place) spun his car, which shows just how tricky it is out there.
The big drama now is the rain. Some part of the track is fairly dry, with other parts being very wet. Both the #3 Audi and the #9 Peugeot in is the pit for an unscheduled stop. They are the cars battling for 3rd place.
Things have settled down a bit in the other classes. The #9 Aston Martin is 2 laps ahead of the #63 Corvette, but it is Le Mans and it is raining, so I am not going to make any predictions...
