• JAMIE CHADWICK and IDEC Sport’s #18 LMP2 entry are holding their own in fifth place at the halfway point, with Chadwick delivering consistent double stints through the night. Her teammate André Lotterer had the car running as high as third before strategy cycles, proving this isn’t just about keeping up—they’re genuinely fighting for a podium finish with 12 hours still to go.
• The Iron Dames squad is putting on a clinic in LMGT3, with rookie CÉLIA MARTIN impressively taking night duty—something most bronze drivers avoid—while maintaining 4:00 lap times under pressure from gold and platinum-rated drivers. SARAH BOVY and RAHEL FREY have kept the #85 Porsche in the hunt, cycling through the top five and currently sitting seventh after the first safety car reshuffle.
• LILOU WADOUX has engineered a solid recovery drive for the Richard Mille Ferrari after early contact and a penalty dropped them down the order. Now running P11 in LMGT3 and an extra stop up on the cars ahead, she’s positioned perfectly to capitalize on the inevitable attrition that comes with 12 hours of racing still ahead—exactly the kind of strategic patience that wins these endurance classics.
