🗣️'We're going to lose probably one and a half laps within the first 10 minutes, so that's very difficult to obviously catch up. I don't know what's possible.' Not the way anyone wants to start the LeMans24 ⬇️
The TDS-entered ORECA-Gibson 07 entered under the Tower Motorsports banner suffered heavy damage when Thomas clouted the TF Sport-run D'Station Aston Martin Vantage GTE that Casper Stevenson had spun into the barriers at the fast sweeper before Tertre Rouge.
TDS and D'Station both missed qualifying on Wednesday afternoon while replacement chassis were sourced, so will start from the back of the grid. Both teams are hopeful of getting their cars ready by the end of third practice on Thursday, with Stevenson needing to complete 10 laps in darkness to be allowed to start the race in the car he shares with Satoshi Hoshino and Tomonobu Fujii.
