#21 Strakka given a 1 minute stop and go penalty for speeding in the pitlane.

Also, I jinxed myself earlier, I've lost the laptop, so not sure I'll stay up much longer without a feed, probably see you guys in the morning :)
 
Honest from Audi about the race on Twitter

Winning a fight is only worth something when it was fiercely fought. That's why, despite wearing an Audi shirt at this moment, I want things to improve for Toyota. If they allowed them to be in the leaders lap in this precise moment, I'd be okay with that.
 
I CAN'T STAND SPEED'S COVERAGE! They are the WORST at showing the race!

They're using the world feed, Speed doesn't decide what's showing, when they're showing LeMans.

Now, they do have the choice to show Michigan practice, which doesn't make sense to me.

When they actually show the race, they do a great job. I really like both Bob Varsha and Leigh Diffey.
 
Pffff live timing is completely messed up.
I'm going to bed, be back for sunrise hopefully!
Can't wait to see the Deltawing back on track and I hope the Toyota will still be here when I wake up !
 
As an Audi fan, A 123 finish would make me happy. With pug pulling out I thought I would see no competition but Toyota certainly came out to play. Unfortunate for them..

I do not know what side I am on over the DW. I like it and hate itbatbthe same time lol
 
Tweet from Toyota Racing:

VICTORY! @joeylogano wins his 5th @NASCAR_NNS race of 2012, this time at @MISpeedway !!

NOBODY CARES!!! Now, tell Nakajima that you've got his wife kidnapped and that he must catch up if he wants to see her again.

Whats there twitter feed? :)
 
Wait, again? As in, after they announced it was coming back in an hour or so?

I don't know, it just popped up on the feed I was getting at, with the LeMans 24 video feed thing

However, i think they are referring to them as "retired" if they've been in the pits for longer than 30 mins or more. So I assume once they have arrived onto the racetrack, they will be "un-retired" and start doing laps.

I have no idea what is going on.

Damn man, some of the headlights are SUPER BRIGHT OH MY GOD, THIS IS A MINI SUN BRIGHTNESS style.
 
With the DeltaWing being experimental, do the rules not apply for it in terms of driver being 50 meters from the car would deem it out of the race?
 
Wiegert? Staying up late? I am shocked!

Down side? I'll miss a few hours of the race after dawn.

I have no idea what is going on.

Well I hope they can get the Delta Wing back out at some point.

"Some" being Audi? I know, might need my shades actually.
 
From the EU Le Mans Series:

Link.
That's why **** happens, because LM series don't specify a crap. If that's the official "rule" it basically means nothing. "hey I'm blue flaggin you, a faster car is coming, do what ever you want". LOL. I bet they don't even make briefing about how to handle chaotic situations. There's clearly a problem with LM organization. Anthony Davidson risked his life today and last year other drivers.
A Five-seveN, you say? Well, they are in France. I guess that's appropriate.
By the way this is the ultimate troll answer. I'm talking about safety you are talking crap.
