2021 Nurburgring 24HRTouring Cars

[MatskiMonk]

Looks like the weather might be stabilizing a bit.

Leading Merc investigated for unsafe release...

Foxtail ahead of Wolverine!

 

[MatskiMonk]

Manta in the pits...!

+ 1 Jager!

 

[Savolainen83]

#15 Audi in trouble. Front smashed and rear wheel wobbling with missing rearwing.

EDIT: BMW #100 stopped on track at the stadium.

EDIT 2: quite appropriate that the Dacia has red and white caution stripes taped to the rear of the car.

 

[Savolainen83]

I think this warrants its own post instead of tagged on to previous one. @sgohsixthree

Manta +1 Jager!

Foxtail still leading Wolverine in SP3...

 

[Savolainen83]

BAD accident at the end of the northloop. Porsche Cayman/Boxter hard at the wall and tumbles around. Ambulance on scene.

 

[Bloodytears]

Very hard hit, almost at full speed. Viper was so lucky to came late there

Hope driver is ok.

Edit: Oh damn, almost had a heart attack. There some massive dirt there on track. Grello on track, all that matters.

The driver of that Porsche was ok, walked himself to the ambulance.

I spy someone is isn't going to be awake tonight.

Right now I'm drinking at a much slower pace than I normally would be!

Hopefully we won't get any long safety cars, reds or FCY's because that's normally what wipes me out in the wee small hours!

 

[Savolainen83]

Porsche #306 has had an accident. Pflanzgarten

EDIT: Driver either on a phone with video or taking selfies on the accident scene. looked like the latter.

EDIT 2: #704 Glickenhaus stopped on the trackside, driver out of the car.

 

[MatskiMonk]

Damn, hoping this isn't terminal for the Glick.

 

[Bloodytears]

It didn't seem something serious from a side... Can't believe SCG is out so early!

 

[Savolainen83]

WE HAVE A RED FLAG! 22.30 GMT+1 🤬

Probably because of foggy weather.

 

[Bloodytears]

Fog? Only because of fog?

 

[VulcanSpirit]

Full course red flag. Someone on the English stream reckons it has something to do with the Fog of War that's been developing...

 

[MatskiMonk]

Can't see the fog going anywhere any time soon. ****.

 

[Savolainen83]

Can't see the fog going anywhere any time soon. ****.

At least its not torrential downpour combined with pitchblack darkness nor hailstorm.

EDIT: Next Information at 22.30 GMT

 

[Tired Tyres]

Fog? Only because of fog?

Medical helicopter can't take off.

 

[Bloodytears]

Medical helicopter can't take off.

I got it, probably the race control cant't see a thing too, the same as we are through live stream.

Also SCG says they had a contact somewhere, that leaded to to spin out.

 

[MatskiMonk]

Sounds like Cristodoulu, is complaining that they don't get a full free stop under Red.

The other reason is every marshal's post needs to be able to see the previous and next post around the course. If they can't, it usually means it's too inclement for the medical helicopter anyway, but it's another reason for stopping.

 

[Bloodytears]

This quite a lot...

 

[MatskiMonk]

Earliest restart at 7am Local.

Sounds like the need more Marshal posts!



... guess I'll just drink the rest of the Jager then.

[Spacegoat]

Man, this race really snuck up on me. Had no idea it was on this weekend until yesterday. Disappointed that the #30 Porsche is out.

Also, damn.

 

[Savolainen83]

I already linked this once on this thread, but here's something else to watch while we wait for the race to continue:

 

[MatskiMonk]

I'm watching GT America.

drink on the word 'contact'...

It'll do...

They red flagged that too.

 

[MatskiMonk]

They red flagged that too.

Yeah, I didn't see the incident but someone made it clear over the Armco into the trees...
