Things would soon change though, the snow came down at around 6PM, by this point, it was already dark thanks to being in Winter. At around 8pm, in the heavy snow, Hans Stuck veered out of the shallow snow on the racing line to pass a lapped GT car, but in doing so, made slight contact with the lapped car, spinning it around into the heavy snow. Hans Stuck also ended up in the deep snow, with the Porsche now stuck.

But, this was a tale of comebacks, Porsche are known for being prepared for anything, and it happened to be the case, that they were carrying a shovel in the car. They certainly knew about the possibility of snow. Hans Stuck dug his Porsche out of the snow and continued after being stuck for 10 minutes. The #92 Porsche showed amazing pace to the end, passing the leader in the final hour to win the 1985 Winter Le Mans. This would be the last time the Winter Le Mans was held, with it being canned the following year over safety concerns.

AI for certain, but well played.

It had me for a bit, then I noticed the slight aberrations and misspellings in the graphics.
