Pole-sitter Ben Keating ignited the team’s drama after spinning the #52 ORECA LMP2 07 late in the opening hour of the 10-hour race.
Despite recovering to run among the frontrunners, with roughly two hours remaining Keating and co-driver Paul-Loup Chatin were left watching with agony after endurance team-mate Alex Quinn appeared stranded in the gravel at Turn 10.
