80th running of the Le Mans 24 Hours - 16–17 June 2012

[Jawehawk]

Just woke up after 9 hours of counting sheeps. Have any of the Audi's broken down yet?

 

[C-ZETA]

They didn't die but they are a few laps behind the leader sadly.
I doubt the Corvette will get a podium this year.

Ah mmkay. Who are 2nd and 3rd there then?

I wonder if we will ever see scenes similar to Corvette's 4th overall in '06 again.

 

[RUstAuSi]

At your service.

Hahaha! 👍

 

[Submerged]

I'm back to watching the race, this time in glorious Eurosport HD. Wow, that makes a change from the online stream! Crisp and clear! FAB!

So, any interesting high-jinks happen while I was asleep?

1-2-3-4, All running strong.

 

[Emptyone]

Yeah I know, I was talking about the Official Corvettes

Ah the important one's, fair enough. Though one retirement ahead of it would put it on the podium.

Nope.
Just a small gearbox issue on the #4 about an hour ago.

 

[Jawehawk]

Verdamnt.

Not yet, they have had a few minor problems but nothing serious.

Treluyer on the #1 regain the lead, just 20 seconds ahead of McNish's #2

McNish is 10 secs behind the #1 Audi.

Ferrari #59 is 3 laps down in second, and the Aston Martin #97 is 4 laps down in 3rd.

Just show the instructor what you've learnt from a certain Ferrari driver. I assure you, he'll be impressed 👍.

#46 it is.
