Comments

It did not begin too well for Jens Møller and Nicolas Kiesa at Le Mans. Already during the first hour the Lister had to have a rear wheel bearing replaced and shortly after the mechanics had to go to work again to replace the starter. Thus the Lister was at the rear end of the field after only a few hours driving and the team had to try to regain lost ground during the night.

This went pretty well and at dawn the car had recovered from 48th to 27th place - but it was still the last LMP1 car running. However a minor collision with another car resulted in some body damage which turned out to be terminal. The mechanics were not able to secure the front properly and - fearing that the front might work loose at top speed causing the car to lift - the team chose to retire the car at 8:52 sunday morning.
