I was hoping we could learn something from the Delta's run. Shame.

 

[Desmo46]

3'25.671 to be exact the time clocked by Duval. I think he's the only Audi driver with orders to drive flat-out so Audi's PR team can show a 1-2-3-4.

Probably wouldn't be much of a surprise if they tell the #4 to let the #3 pass so the Audis finish in formation.

I seriously hope they don't. I absolutely hate team-orders, and seeing Audi do them will definitely harm the image I have of them.

 

[uMadson?]

#33 stalled.

 

[Desmo46]

#33's come to a halt.

 

[albteman015]

33 is having problems

 

[CarBastard]

#3 Audi was 26 seconds quicker than the Rebellion in that lap, plus the faux-Lotus is in the pits now so it's just a matter of time until the Panzer Parade is complete.

 

[uMadson?]

#12 heading out of the pits.

 

[Desmo46]

#3 Audi's almost within striking distance of the #12 Rebellion Lola.

 

[RACECAR]

#3 is coming, Only a matter of time before the it catches the 12.

 

[CarBastard]

7.3 seconds is now the gap between Quick Nick and Loic Duval. Say your goodbyes Rebellion.

 

[uMadson?]

Brian Vickers having a bit of a problem perhaps?

 

[Savolainen83]

Audis are 1,2,3 and 4

Edit: not quite yet.

 

[CarBastard]

2.893 now. The Rebellion will be within attack distance before the end of the lap.

 

[albteman015]

hahahah Panzer parade.

 

[uMadson?]

... some other 458 brushing the wall.

That's a paddlin'.

 

[CarBastard]

The Audi about to pounce!

 

[albteman015]

there it goes

 

[uMadson?]

the R18 got the Lola-Toyota.

 

[Savolainen83]

NOW the Audis are 1,2,3 and 4.

 

[CarBastard]

And hits it's prey.

Guess that was the only thing left in this race. It'll be a Panzer Parade for the next 7 hours unless something absolutely improbable happens.

 

[Cano]

well the race absolutely sucks now.

 

[uMadson?]

it's all Audi now.

and oooooooh the #61 having a puncture

#88 beached

 

[Savolainen83]

Af Corse Waltrip Ferrari limping towards the pits.

And now the car is on fire.

 

[Desmo46]

Shots of the retiree 'graveyard'. Poor DeltaWing.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

At least the 3's charge was exciting. 1 also seems to be going all out.

 

[CarBastard]

Forza Motorsport banners everywhere, No competition for the Audis, the Deltawing gone...

Meh...I'd go to sleep if it weren't because I've already opened two cans of redbull and one of Smirnoff Ice ...
