Technical problem causes red flag in virtual 24 hours of Le Mans

The virtual 24 Hours of Le Mans could not go ahead for an hour. The organisers had to wave a red flag after technical problems arose. It was therefore a long wait to see when the rest of the race would take place.

Just before 18:30, the online version of the event stopped. "Due to technical difficulties, the racing on circuit has come to a halt," it informed, adding the organisers could not yet give a time for the continuation. "We shall resume the action as soon as we can." It eventually turned out to take an hour. Max Verstappen is also competing in the event.
