Porsche and Toyota really win out with this safety car, so ridiculous.
 
Morning everyone. Reading all the posts here and its amazing how much has taken place just from reading the posts here. Now up for the final hour and sad to see one of the Toyotas has found the wall :indiff:


Can only hope the 8 car can do something.
 
Aaaaand into the final hour. With the Aston now one lap behind ):
 
Full wets for Porsche. Slicks for Aston.
 
C'mon! Get that Safety car out!
 
Someone PLEASE make a .gif image of that LMP2 car spinning in front of the Audi with the "Deal with it" glasses :lol:!
 
Wow look at that cloud and how dark its gone
 
South end of the circuit doesn't appear that it will be dry for a while
 
The Toyota is done. LaPierre broke the rules like a noob. Audi will file a complaint most likely. They should just shut down the Toyota garage now so they don't let them take the risk of going back out there for nothing.

Porsche pits and puts on wets. I think the Aston made a huge mistake with the InterSlicks. There's standing water on the track lol. If he gives up the line to an LMP car and hits a wet patch, he's gonna go flying.
 
man I'm doing what one guy here doesn't want to do - wish bad luck for Audi :lol:

I could see the strategy behind it if you thought it was going to dry soon, but it doesn't look that way to me. Aston is going to have a hard time staying on track!

If the only help he got was the tractor getting him out of dangerous place there is no issue with the rules.
 
I have a horrible feeling that Aston have blown it.

Still, anyone got any idea why it's suddenly a lap behind in 3rd?
 
Hmm... any idea when it'll go green again?
 
GTE cars have to pit no matter what.
 
This is looking pretty fine for Audi now, still having the lap advantage. The GTE Pro battle is no longer now though, that was down to Aston taking so long to decide what tyres to put on, then changing back.

Do It. :lol:
 
Well... This is going to be a boring wait for green...
 
Big rain clouds incoming get rid of the safety car. These are supposed to be adults, trust them to make the right call on tyres and tactics. There is no reason for this silliness.
 
This is really has the potential to be Jann's golden moment. If he can pull off a podium, although he's pretty much a lap behind, in these conditions, it'll really cement him down as a force. Good luck Jann! His inlap when everyone was spinning out was so tense watching it on the Nismo onboard stream. The rain came in like a whirlwind, insanely scary. Every time he took a turn I would hold my breath.
 
Goodness me, that looked really dark during the on-board video of the #2 Audi...

Who cares how far away a drivers walks away from his car? It doesn't make any difference.
