LE MANS, France (Reuters) - Denmark's eight times winner Tom Kristensen led a tragedy-tinged Le Mans 24 Hours race into the daylight on Sunday after compatriot Allan Simonsen was killed in a crash only minutes into the endurance event.
Kristensen, in the number two Audi he shares with British two times winner Allan McNish and Frenchman Loic Duval, was nearly two laps clear of the first of two Toyotas as the 18 hour mark was reached during one of many safety car interludes.
