Jota completed another remarkable Le Mans comeback to take second, ahead of the G-Drive (OAK) outfit.
"So me going there as a rookie, not having any experience, I just want to go there open minded and do a good job and enjoy it.
"Of course, we want to do well and I'd love to win and it would be a dream come true, but we should be realistic."
Audi boss Wolfgang Ullrich makes his way to the Porsche pit now to offer his congratulations.
Our success rate (assuming nothing changes in the final few laps) was 0 per cent. And that shows just how unpredictable Le Mans really is.
The #13 car of Imperatori runs 18th and the #12 machine of Heidfeld is 26th.
