Total 24 Hours Of Spa - Hours Eleven & Twelve

Team Preci Spark Mercedes-Benz spun and rejoined at Les Combes.

Brief fire alert in the media centre...but noone cares.

Timing says "car 45 heat the tyres at T15 and rejoined". Guess that should be hit instead of heat, but wasn't the Gulf Team First car out already?

And now both the DB Motorsport BMW #43 and #44 are in the pit at the same time. Could it be the #43 that hit the tyres at Stavelot?

02:15 Safety car as the #99 Audi Sport Team Phoenix Audi R8 LMS hits the wall at Les Combes.

The #99 has been collected by a "flatbed", suggesting that the car is a retirment.

02:32 Safety Car remains on track. A number of cars are being instructed to speed up in order to tighten the pursuing train.

Update on the two DB Motorsport BMWs that were in the pit before: #43 was David Hart going through the gravel trap, whilst Xavier Maassen had two momentary oil pressure alarms and then felt the car slide at the rear. He then pitted for a check and the team found a pinched catch tank feeder pipe. Xavier Maassen: "I heard the alarm and thought it was all over - it scared the heck out of me, but the guys found and fixed the problem super quickly and we're back out. We lost some time but there's still a long way to go."

Hearing that the #99 Audi is now an official retirement - safety car in at the end of this lap.

02:45 And we're racing again!

Both Phoenix Audi's have now been retired it seems, leaving the WRT #33 out on its own as works car. Still have two United Autosports Audi's though which are still standing strong. 02:54 Spin for the Vita4One Ferrari #2 of Michael Bartels. Apparently at La Source.

02:59 The AutOrlando Sport Porsche #9 is reported 'out at the Radillon'. Not sure if that means 'off' or actually 'out of the race'.

03:01 SAFETY CAR - so that seems to say off and out.

The #82 will get a drive through - which it has to serve when the safety car comes in.

Correction on the status of Audi #98 - it is still circulating and has just gone into the pit lane.

Unfortunately Johansson's #23 Audi is losing time back in the garage. He got hit and it knocked the steering out. The team are re-tracking the wheels.

Lots of work going on at AutOrlando Sport crash scene. Already behind the safety car for fifteen minutes.

Team manager Lamborghini #6 now asked to report to race control.

03:24 GREEN FLAG

Marc VDS Racing Team Ford GT has been given a 10-seconds stop go for overtaking under the safety car.

03:44 We have a car in the gravel at 'Campus', turn 14. No information yet on what car it is.

Just before reaching the halfway point and the #008 GPR AMR Aston Martin DBRS9 has been retired; gearbox failure.

After 12 hours: WRT Audi #33 - Need For Speed Team Schubert BMW #76 - Vita4One Ferrari #2.
