Toyota are seeking a sixth successive win but their hopes now rest on the number eight car that triumphed last year with Sebastien Buemi of Switzerland, New Zealander Brendon Hartley and Japan's Ryo Hirakawa. Organisers said the car was involved in an incident at Tertre Rouge. The number seven Toyota shared by Kamui Kobayashi, Britain's Mike Conway and Argentina's Jose Maria Lopez stopped on the Mulsanne straight with the Japanese trying to continue but finally giving up and getting out. With more than eight hours gone at the Sarthe circuit, the number 94 Peugeot with Nico Muller at the wheel had a 90-second lead over the pole-setting number 50 Ferrari before pitting under safety car conditions. June 10 (Reuters) - Peugeot led the centenary Le Mans 24 Hours race into Sunday morning after reigning champions Toyota lost one of their two cars and Ferrari spun out of the lead in tricky conditions.
