LE MANS, France (Reuters) - Force India Formula One driver Nico Hulkenberg led his first Le Mans 24 Hours race on Saturday before handing over to Porsche team mate Nick Tandy as the battle with champions Audi raged through the night.

The number 19 car that Hulkenberg shares with Briton Tandy and New Zealand's Earl Bamber led as the clock ticked past midnight but after 10 hours of high-speed action there was little to separate the two German manufacturers.
