After a four-hour, 26-minute safety car intervention for heavy overnight rain, the 92nd annual 24 Hours of Le Mans finally resumed at 8:10 AM CEST to the delight of millions of fans. Ryo Hirakawa led the field back to racing in the No.8 Toyota, maintaining a two-second buffer over Laurens Vanthoor in the No.6 Porsche. Nyck de Vries in the No.7 Toyota is third but off-sequence after an unscheduled stop due to visibility issues from oil on his windscreen. The top six in Hypercar also includes Nicklas Nielsen in the No.50 Ferrari, Robert Kubica in the No.83 Ferrari, and Alex Lynn in the No.2 Cadillac. In LMP2, Ben Barnicoat in the No.183 AF Corse leads as Stephane Richelmi in the No.10 Vector Sport still owes a pit stop.
