Le Mans, France – With just a little over six hours of the 2009 24 Hours of Le Mans completed, we have entered the quarter mark. The last hour has seen a lot of action. Contact between the No. 009 Aston Martin and the No. 26 Radical just after the Ford Chicane, bringing out the Safety car, and a round of pit stops for all of the front runners. The No. 3 Audi R15 TDI was running slowly, and returned to the pits, where it was taken into the garage. Currently the front and rear is off of the car, and the crew is busily working on it. The Navi Team Goh from Japan in their Porsche RS Spyder has taken over the lead of LMP2.

In LMGT2 Ferrari has a One, Two, Three after problems with the No. 76 Porsche 911 GT3 RSR Team IMSA Performance Matmut of France. Currently the No. 82 Ferrari F430 GT Risi Compitizione is leading, with No. 92 JMW Motorsports Ferrari F430 Second. The No. 78 Team AF Corse Ferrari of Italy is Third.
