    Oh look, the ByKolles is actually faster than the LMP2s! :pac:

    I think it's about time they put an end to this carry on, nobody expects the privateer P1s to be keeping up with the manufacturers but half a second ahead of the P2s is disgraceful. All it looks like is they are doing the absolute minimum to stay above the p2s so they can run a p2 style operation with the extra exposure and sponsorship of being in the p1 class.

    Hope this is going to be good

    worth watching for the lmp1's making their way through traffic alone


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,855 ✭✭✭Grim.


    or not


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,023 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    should have been a bit more patient with the traffic maybe


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,855 ✭✭✭Grim.


    lack of experience in a LMP1 showing there

    cant agree with that penalty for the 91 GTE Porsche tandy came from miles back


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,023 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    Yes surprised by that

    I'd say penalty might be coming for the unusual shortcut at the last corner too


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Sterling Archer


    :( Sounds like an exciting race


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,855 ✭✭✭Grim.


    it's all gone a bit crazy


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,855 ✭✭✭Grim.


    never seen so many LMP1 reliability issues in a six hour race


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,023 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    good that it's mixed it up at the front, nice battle for the lead for a few laps


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Sterling Archer


    This is exhausting to watch :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 30,023 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    Wow, bit of contact there between leaders and two/three changes of lead in one lap


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Sterling Archer


    Did she just say "Plan B" haha


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,842 ✭✭✭✭PopePalpatine


    46 laps from the ByKolles...what a f*cking joke of a car.

    Porsche looked the faster car most of the race, pity they couldn't chase down Audi the last few laps
    Toyota not in the mix really

    have a good one!

    will have to try get over next year

    good news for those of us watching on eurosport this year, sounds like we get full circuit coverage through the night as apposed to the locked off cameras of previous years, nothing offical yet but it was teased on last weeks mid week motorsport.

    updated entry list came out today
