So as you all know Audi won Le Mans, again. Another Audi came second and a long way behind was a Toyota. These cars were all hybrids as were the top Porsches. The Porkers did well, particularly the one the Mark Webber was driving, but his car fell apart near the end.

Who said smoking didn’t make you go fast?
