Final result:

1. Aston Martin 009
2. Corvette C6R 63
3. Corvette C6R 64

Lemans is a tough race, normally with periods of rain, like this year. And with Corvette's bulletproof reliability, losing the lead to 009 came down to luck again or lack thereof. With dry compound tires, #64 rear ended a LMP prototype. Another tough finish.

Although they didn't win, two podium finishes is still great. Congrats to Team Corvette.
