Electrical problem shorts out leading Toyota; Audi goes to the front

LE MANS, France — Racing towards a sunrise, at approximately 4:30 in the morning, the No. 7 S040 HYBRID Toyota suffered a cataclysmic electrical failure, stranding the car on the course, and seemingly putting it out of the race. That left first place to the No. 2 Audi with second place being held down by the No. 20 919 Porsche, that is three laps off the leader’s pace. In third is the No. 1 Audi, that was a lap down to the Porsche, but which has been making up time with every lap and as the sun began to rise, was only 40 seconds out of second place. The No. 14 Porsche 919 is running in fourth place 11 laps off the leader’s pace while the No. 8 Toyota is in fifth place another 30 seconds behind the Porsche.
