I'll review this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 03:37, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm copyediting as I read through; please revert as needed.

There are a couple of cases in the lead where you refer to drivers as "it": Fässler maintained its advantage and won by Pedro Lamy, Mathias Lauda and Paul Dalla Lana after it led the final 48 laps. Since this happens twice I'm just checking: these are typos, right? Not some oddity of the sport's jargon?
- Yes those were typos. Have now rectified this. MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Three manufacturers were represented in LMP1, including a duo of cars entered by Porsche, Toyota and Audi Sport Team Joest: Suggest "Three manufacturers, Porsche, Toyota and Audi Sport Team Joest, were represented in LMP1 by two cars each".
- Done MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Lieb's No. 2 Porsche led the 90-minute period with 18 minutes and remaining with a fastest lap time of one minute and 41.703 seconds: looks like some editing debris?
- Cleared up. MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It seems odd that in the third practice session "some light rain fell towards the session's end", but cars switched "to dry slick tyres when the track dried up"; can you just confirm that both of these are correct?
- These statement are correct and I have made some copy-edits to the preceding sentence. MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Is there a link for "electrical boost"? I've no idea what it means. Similarly for "drive-through penalty".
- There is no link for electrical boost but have added a link for drive-through penalty. MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hartley stated his stratification of finishing as the winner: I don't know what this means.
- Fixed. MWright96 (talk) 19:02, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's everything I can see. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 10:40, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fixes look good. Passing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 03:05, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
