@CorvetteRacing: "Heartbreaking. Lost three laps sorting alternator issue on 74. Replaced the belt. Gavin back out P5."
It's an Audi one-two. Di Grassi has moved ahead of the #20 Porsche, which took tyres and changed from Hartley to Webber at at its last stop.
Treluyer pits and hands over to Fassler in the leading Audi.
Di Grassi is extending the advantage of the #1 Audi over Webber in the #20 Porsche by at least a couple of seconds a lap.
Ruberti pits out of fifth place in GTE Am aboard the 8Star Ferrari.
... and is quickly on his way.
Panciatici bangs in the Signatech ORECA's fastest lap of the race in his chase of Brundle in the OAK/G-Drive Ligier in Brundle's hands.
Mucke bangs in the quickest lap for the #97 GTE Pro Aston Martin. He's chasing leader Bruni's #51 Ferrari.
Webber is losing ground in the #20 Porsche in third place. On the last lap, he did a 3m30.909s, while the leading #2 Audi did a 3m29.477s and the #1 Audi a 3m29.131s.
Capillaire brings the #24 Sebastien Loeb Racing ORECA into the pits. He jumps out and the car, with Charouz getting in. The car also looks set to get fresh Michelins.
The #36 Signatech Alpine ORECA is in the pits, with Panciatici staying at the wheel.
Here's the order in LMP1 up at the front: 1 #2 Audi (Fassler); 2 #1 Audi (Di Grassi); 3 #20 Porsche (Webber); 4 #8 Toyota (Davidson); 5 #14 Porsche (Dumas).
Di Grassi continues to edge away from Webber - the gap is up over the 40-second mark.
Brundle has just put in the fastest lap produced by the LMP2-leading #35 Ligier, a 3m38.032s.
The standings in LMP2 are: 1 #35 Ligier (Brundle); 2 #36 ORECA (Panciatici); 3 #46 Ligier (Badey); 4 #34 ORECA (Frey); 5 #38 Zytek (Tincknell); 6 #24 ORECA (Charouz).
The GTE Pro-leading #51 Ferrari is in the pits. Bruni hands over to Vilander and the team bolts on fresh Michelins.
The #52 Ram Ferrari is back in the pits yet again. That car is the last classified runner and has been battling plenty of problems.
Davidson brings the remaining Toyota in for fuel only.
Brundle's advantage in LMP2 in the #35 Ligier is not far off a lap now.
Mucke has just set his fastest lap of the race in the Aston of 3m34.606s. That's a couple of tenths faster than the Vantage went in qualifying!
Judging by the pitstop time, Brundle just took fuel at that stop.
Mucke brings the second-placed GTE Pro Aston Martin into the pits.
Tung puts in the best lap for the #33 OAK Racing Asia Ligier. That car is eighth in LMP2.
Mucke stays on board the #97 Aston Martin.
The #12 Rebellion stops. Fuel and tyres for Beche.

That was a longish stop for Beche, up over the two-minute mark.
The #34 Race Performance ORECA has been reported to the stewards for pitlane speeding. That car is fourth in LMP2.
Di Grassi pits the second-placed Audi and Webber follows him in. Gene takes over the controls of the R18 and beats Webber out of the pits.
The #62 GTE AM Ferrari is wheeled into the garage. It's one of the class stragglers. Blank gets out and there seems to be no great urgency in the garave.
Dumas brings the fifth-placed #14 Porsche into the pits for a fuel stop.
Gavin brings the #74 Corvette into the pits for fuel and tyres and a driver change, with Milner taking over.
Fassler brings the leading #2 Audi into the pits for fuel.
But the leading car is wheeled into the garage!
The front bodywork is off the #2 Audi and there's some also work at the rear of the car.
The nose goes back onto the front of the #2 Audi. It had a three-lap advantage, so there is a little cushion to play with. The rear bodywork looks like it's going back on.
The #2 Audi is wheeled back out of the garage.
But no, the #2 Audi is wheeled back in again. This looks more serious. The front bodywork is coming back off again, as is the rear bodywork.
