The #5 Honda reached the 15th hour mark in its box then came out in 11th position, more than 11 laps behind, leaving the lead to the #37 BMW, less than a lap ahead of the #7 Yamaha which is making a strong comeback...
So far, there have only been a few drops of rain but the storms seem to have avoided Spa.
Ranking at 5 p.m.:
