Flying Lizard hour 15 notes

Flying Lizard No. 80 Retired in Hour 15

June 14, 2009 -- 06:00 CET -- The Flying Lizard No. 80 has been retired following an accident at approximately 5:25 CET, halfway through Hour 15. The No. 80 Porsche had been fourth in GT2 at the time of the accident. Following a driver change from Seth Neiman to Darren Law, on Darren's outlap, he had an incident in the brake zone at the first Chicane which ended with a heavy impact into the tires. We don't know the cause at this point. The No. 80 is out of the race, although we have not been able to reach the car to evaluate the damage. Darren is being checked over by track medical, but he appears to be fine.

Thank you to all of our fans for your support of our fifth 24 Heures du Mans program. We'll see you next month back in the U.S. at Lime Rock Park.
