The race is really close throughout with 5 hours left and there's a lot to talk about! So let's talk about it. Also, I hope that this will help keep those of us who are still awake, awake.

The #68 Ford is absolutely hunting that Ferrari down. Dammit Risi, you’re ruining the dream!

USA! USA! Actually, I find it really interesting that the Ganassi USA teams have done so much better than the UK teams. Muller was really pulling to close that gap.

It’s gonna be close in GTE Pro. Will probably come down to whoever between the Risi and the Ford don’t screw up a pit stop or don't spin/get spun.

Also, I have a feeling Toyota’s chances of winning will end up coming down to a single pit stop.

Rooting for that GT. It’s SO close.

Probably gonna fall asleep soon and wake up for the last half hour/hour of the race.

Definitely-pit times are going to play a huge part in it.

Stay up! You can do it!

Both GTE Pro and LMP1 are probably going to come down to pit stops - it's so close.

I’ve got Ford Performance’s feed open in another window and the chat box is hilarious. Where’s the Ferrari? Is that the Ferrari? ZOMG FORD PASSED THE FERRARI!! Wrong Ferrari dude...

And the GT is out in front now! Woot!

If these battles last for four and a half more hours, none of us will have any trouble staying awake. Let’s see if Ford can hold it

Also, the WEC live stream guys are really good about answering Twitter questions, if anybody has curiosities about the race. They have answered a couple of mine.

What's the Twitter accounts? I still haven't found them after two Le Mans...

For the guys on now tweet at @jakesanson. I haven't tweeted at the other guys so I don't know theirs, but they were definitely answering tweets earlier.

#82 Ferrari just lost some time. You know, they’ve been putting up a good fight so far. Not gonna lie, I hope Ferrari catches back up to Ford...

...just to be there to witness Ford cross the finish line first!
