A critical moment when the flag falls in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Robin Frijns is in the lead, but the Dutchman is being pursued by his nearest competitor. When the flag goes down on the track it almost goes wrong.

Frijns is held up by a number of cars in front of him, which means he risks losing his victory too. He swerves and almost hits the best gentleman standing on the tarmac with the black and white chequered flag.
