4h53m The #59 Luxury Ferrari, which was running fourth in the GTE Pro class, has a slow stop as it changes driver from Jamie Melo to Frederic Makowiecki.
4h51m That car is getting the full works. Tyres and fuel going in. It was running fourth but could drop behind Dumas, who pitted only a couple laps back.
4h50m The #8 Peugeot is also in and Stephane Sarrazin hands over to Nicolas Minassian.

4h42m There is a fantastic battle going on for petrol honours as Rebellion's Neel Jani fends off the attentions of Julien Jousse's Pescarolo.
4h41m The GTE Am leader, the #60 Aston Martin Vantage pits. As does the ORECA Peugeot - which is currently sixth overall. No tyres, no driver change, just fuel for that car.
4h40m Fassler leads then in the Audi #2 from Davidson, who is 30s behind in the #7 Peugeot. Third is Simon Pagenaud in the #9 Peugeot, just holding off the position from Stephane Sarrazin in the #8 car. Dumas is just behind this battle. The top five covered by 1m30s.
4h38m Dumas has dropped back to fifth overall now after that stop.

4h35m Then again, they may not... The #1 Audi pits for its latest stop.

4h31m Davidson's stop has allowed him to drop into the clutches of Romain Dumas in the #1 Audi as the pair battle for second position.

4h22m Watts now into the pits from second in his #42 Strakka HPD, currently second in LMP2. Leventis to take over.
4h21m Newton pits from fifth in the #36 LMP2 RML HPD
4h21m In GTE Pro, Hand in the #56 BMW still closing in on Magnussen in the lead #74 Corvette
