ILMC/LMS, Silverstone, Fourth Hour

Audi leads on the turn of the hour. A stunning blast up the inside into Maggots saw Fassler finally past the Peugeot. Both then put another lap on Kristensen.

2:53 to go and the lead changes in P2 too, Kraihaimer taking the place from Ojjeh in inth and tenth overall. Next car is Kristensen, so #2 will be back in the top 10 overall soon.

Ortelli takes his GTE Pro lead into the pits for another routine stop, so Bruni, Lieb and Holzer all move up a place to make the interim 'podium', but all are on a stop less.

Bellichi has a moment at turn 3, dropping back behind the #24 Oak. So Lahaye and Premat occupy third and fourth, then Bellichi, Collard and Jani (Rebellion again stopping earlier than most).

Ortelli seems to have been struggling on his latest set of tyres and has at least one off-track excursion costing him around 5 seconds, but is losing around 2 seconds a lap. Bruni is coming right back into contention irrespective of pit strategy.

2:40 to go and Fassler has eked out a six second lead. Kristensen is now 9th and one lap behind #007. #12 stops with electrical problems and loses around 12 minutes in the pits.

Henzler takes fourth from Ortelli, who is still clearly struggling for pace.

Fassler and Pagenaud both pit with 2:37 to go, two efficient stops see Bernhard and Bourdais resume where Fassler and Pagenaud had left off.

2:30 to go and Holzer hands over to Goosens, Henzler to Pilet. GTE Pro is now Bruni, 35 seconds ahead of Lieb (both on two stops, then the triple stoppers in the order: Ortelli, Priaulx, Goosens and Pilet.

Lietz takes over from Lieb 8 minutes later and falls back behind Goosens.

A spin for Steven Keating in #92 sees Neil Garner fall to last in FLM, #95 is leading, two laps ahead of #93.

The rear left of the lead Audi is gradually disintegrating, contact in Fassler's stint now leaves the car without its legality panel and a few other bits too, so it will need to be changed at the next stop, surely handing the lead back to #7, 11 seconds further back but being warned about track limits.

Fisichella takes over the lead car in GTE Am and emerges 30 seconds ahead of the previously dominant #59, both have now stopped 3 times. Worse news for the other AF Corse 458, #71 remains in the box with rear bodywork removed.

2:09 to go and #007 Is seen across the track on the Hangar Straight, seemingly initially unable to continue after shedding its left rear, but Primat is assisted by the marshalls and limps back.

Signatech emerges from the box after a 14 minute stop, way back.
