Many kudos to Orebi Gann, Bourne and Lockie (E.B to give the firstnames) for the win in GTS 11 Class. What to say about Jordan/Tordoff/Dorlin finishing second overall with a fragile Lotus Elan?

A karting customer of mine Ed Morris came across the line 12th in a 26R. He'll be happy I hope .

A remarkably well executed race.

Looked like they were just ahead of the winner so almost 2 laps behind but keeping pace and the 3rd GT40 passed the 2nd GT40 on the last lap to take third.

After 6 hours that is a really interesting and exciting result. Or should be.

A valliant effort Iain. Given the professional names involved and the sheer number of cars on track I think this year may have been one of the best in recent times. It was even fun watching the live timing, though I'm not sure it all made sense.

I do prefer seeing a Last Lap time as well as a Best Lap. Couldn't see that today. Did I miss a trick?

No brakes? Bother! No lights? Bother! Seems you had fun, Iain, well done you and the team. I'll keep some Margaux to cheer in 2024. If possible.

Good effort Iain and Team.

Grant, I use "Timing 71" (an app / extension available on Chrome which is my default browser) which gives more columns and includes last and best lap. A bit easier to read I find.

Their website is https://www.timing71.org/

Whenever I go to any live timing site I get a popup asking if I would like to use Timing 71, which I usually click if the host live timing is a bit dodgy.

I'm sad to report it was "our" car ..... Steering rod broke entering Phouon & hit the barrier quite hard.

Driver perfectly ok, but car badly re-arranged front end & team very disappointed after all the prep work gone into this race, to only run for 40 minutes.

That's racing !!

Hi Martin. We know this feeling and,yes, it's part of racing. Driver OK is good news, in french we say "only his pride has been damaged". Bright side is you and your guys have been very fast at Spa, again. Bring your car back in it's former glory will be a challenge, there are so many questionable repro parts around. And the genuine ones are fifty years old… A winter challenge!
