Huge excitement at Le Mans as the race enters the end game with under four hours to go. Peugeot look like they have the victory locked up but rain is expected which could throw everything into doubt. Allan McNish is charging in the Audi and rival teams are stacking up rain tyres outside the garages.
The #39 Lola-Mazda has had an extended pitstop for the exhaust to be mended. Will their unlikely run make it to the finish? RLT.
