As sun set, I made my way back to the paddock. And as soon as I got through the gate, I came across this beautiful Ford GT40. Now, it was obviously a replica, but still an awesome find in the paddock.

 

By now, the race was well underway, and the teams were settling in for a long night.

 

Pit strategy is as critical in endurance racing as it is in any other form of motorsport – as soon as the car is stopped in the box, everything is go.

 

Possibly the most dangerous part of a pit stop is refuelling.

 

Once the car is topped up, the car takes off, back into the night.
