tazzieman Posted 19June, 2016 Report Share Posted 19June, 2016 Well done to those who didn't leave the ground early!(And just an incredible (non-Porsche) side story http://blackflag.jalopnik.com/the-fascinating-way-this-quadruple-amputee-will-drive-a-1782186560 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzJustin Posted 19June, 2016 Report Share Posted 19June, 2016 Wowser what a last 5 minutes to the race. Heartbreaking for Toyota. I think they deserved the win. Hats off to Porsche for pushing Toyota to crack at the end and capitalising on the misfortune though. 18 wins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrera28 Posted 19June, 2016 Report Share Posted 19June, 2016 Just to twist the knife in for Toyota, the 5 car which was leading missed out on second place as well because the last lap was longer than 6 minutes, drivers must be numb both on Porsche and Toyota teams.
