You couldn't get away with writing a film script like that. Incredible. Gut-wrenching for Toyota's crew but, as the old adage goes, to finish first, first you have to finish. Well done Porsche.

Im working at Le Mans this year and saw it all unfold from our pit garage, just an amazing moment, will not forget that for a long time, seeing Toyota celebrating 20 mins before the finish and have it taken away, the feeling here was total shock.

Stunning. Gutted for Toyota. Porsche feel almost embarrassed to win judging by their social media, but I'm sure they will gladly take the spoils!

Unbelievable finish to the race, I just kept thinking of the 'The car in front is a Toyota' slogan. Completely sums up the whole endurance aspect of the race though. I forced my folks to watch the end during my fathers day visit promising it would be finished before the tennis started. Trying to explain to my mum why a 24 hr race is less than boring as she then sat open jawed watching the last 5 minutes of the race. (my dad was snoozing by then but was equally gob smacked when he woke up :lol: )
