Ferrari overtake Toyota again!
Oh wow, the drama!
Shortly after losing the lead due to a slow pitstop, Pier Guidi's #51 Ferrari has nipped back ahead of the #8 Toyota!
The Italian manufacturer's garage erupts with celebration!
Someone tell them that there's five hours to go!
09:47
Ferrari still have hope
Pier Guidi in the #51 Ferrari has fresher tyres than the #8 Toyota, and a 6s gap is already down to around 2s.
09:46
Toyota overtakes Ferrari for the lead!
A big mess at Ferrari.
Their race-leading #51 had a very slow pitstop as Antonio Giovinazzi handed overto Alessandro Pier Guidi.
Sebastien Buemi in the #8 Toyota is able to snatch the lead.
The near-minute lead of the Ferrari has gone, and Toyota are now 6s ahead.
Frantic radio discussions within the Ferrari team, they can't seem to communicate properly!
