Aye, Peugots seem to be getting stronger as it goes on. Wish the live timing was better than it is but that's how it goes.

That's the one I'm on, it's pretty poor showing everyone a lap down on where they are depending on when it updates. Meh, when you're used to the F1 timing just about everything else is awful. :pac:

What brought out the yellow?

amacachi

Just switched on in time to see Davidson take the lead, gotta be a great feeling. First bit I've watched in a good while but from the timing screens it seems he's done an unreal job through his stint.

EDIT: Then he misses the first chicane and loses the lead.

Aye, passed him at the end of the Mulsanne I think, next lap he missed the chicane. Fassler's pulled out a little through traffic now.

Wurz putting some solid laps in since he took over the #7 Pug. Could see him fighting for the lead soon ? Is Marc Gene the weak link in that line-up ?

Ghost Train

interesting overtake by the audi, off the track :eek:, could have been third audi crash

Ghost Train

Wurz crash, bit of damage

Was in third

Still running, but throwing carbon fibre on the track getting back to pits

I think the 'live' timing was not designed with such a close racw in mind.

crasy 7 peugeot cutting across the 2 audi

ARGINITE

Peugeot are really taking the p1ss with holding up the Audi number 2. Something should be done about it but that won't happen as it's a French team.

Have to say I'm enjoying this race, first time ever to watch it.

Proper drivers these lads, mucho respecto.

Will be watching it again.

Come on Audi!

Ghost Train

It's a been a good race, apart from the long safety car periods, great to have it so close

robk24

almost 24 hours of racing and only 24 seconds between 1st and 2nd... amazing...

amacachi

I'd say Davidson is ripping after this race.

Some ending and the few spots of rain is interesting! Last lap gap was reversed. This is awesome.

Sitec

Those Audi's must be TDI.

kierank01

Totally epic.

Well done Audi.

Grim.

awesome race well done audi

what a result after the two crashes, possibly one of the best races I've ever seen ten seconds at the line after 24 hours just epic!!!

Ghost Train

Excellent race, 13 seconds is nothing after 24hours

.....No more nails left......

Well done Audi.
