Might have to look for it on iPlayer this evening

A couple of spectacular crashes from which both drivers thankfully walked away, and just 14 seconds between 1st and 2nd after some 355 laps or 2800 odd miles. Haven't enjoy a Le Mans so much for quite some time, must have watched about 16 of the 24 hours online - don't have sky.
So all in all, yes, one of the greatest weekends for motor racing that I can remember.

I only saw the one crash where all the debris went into the people. It was a miracle that nobody got hurt.

Yeah that one was Allan McNish in one of the Audis about an hour into the race, the other was Mike Rockenfeller in another of the Audis at around 10pm, both available on the tube for anyone that missed them. In the Allan McNish crash watch the photographer being chased down the service road by one of the wheels.
