#97 IS DOWN

The 97 Aston is out. There is no way the car could have survived such a fast crash.

They've just pulled it out of the gravel and it doesn't look in such a bad shape. Let's see...
 
Nooooo! Who to root for?
 
I really hope so. At least it wasn't Adrian driving.
 
It's rolling so it should be good given the situation. But he will lose 2nd place

And the anti-smoking ads have started on SPEED.

I always hate those ads. Too extreme for TV.

Aston Martin is out? That sucks. :ouch:

EDIT: It's back on track.
 
THE ASTON SURVIVED

IT'S BAAAACK!!!

I'm amazed how very little damage the car took.
 
thank goodness it's okay, phew

Audi? Well, I'm an Audi fanboy but their win is inminent so nah.
Pescarolo? Henri and his team are dear to my heart but they have no chance now.
Aston? DAMN!
Corvette? DAMN!
Ferrari? Nah, too mainstream. Plus, they have the worst reputation of all the GT racers.

Don't be tooo optimistic, it can still have some bent wishbones or something.
 
 
The car looks like nothing happened to it. What's it made of, Nokias?
 
This is a really late question, but is there no more GT1 class?
I thought the Vettes and Astons were GT1, while the Porsches and such were GT2
 
There hasn't been a GT1 class for 4 years now.
 
Way to close.. I'm off for a little sleep, see you guys in a bit. Great race and chatting so far. :)
 
#59 car having a puncture

not sure if I should cheer or jeer
 
#97 currently in the garage

they're checking the hood O.o
 
That Ferrari was lucky that the rear fender stayed in one piece.
 
Probally just making sure everything is fine, you can never be too sure as seen with the Toyota LM car earlier.
 
Hey I'm really proud of the Rebellion guys in fourth beating out the #3 Ultra, way to go, let's keep it up!
 
I never saw a single Porsche in the Eurosport stream other than the one involved in the Porsche Curve incident. I wonder why so little coverage for them..
 
ill Ask again, what is the difference between GT and GT3, it keeps coming up and I still dont get it cept for GT3 is cheaper??
 
It really is standard practise to check a car after such a shunt.

GTE (as run in Le Mans) is the old GT2 class, GT3 are different cars but are actually quite simmilar in horsepower. GT1 as has been said, is dead due to enormous costs for both teams and manufacturers.
