Try and follow the other 3 classes then, I know it not that easy because its not spoon fed to you on TV, but give it a go you just might like it.

He's just looking for an argument, let it go.
 
Dose any one no why there isn't any SLS or Z4 GT3's at Le Mans?

They didn't get an invitation I suppose.. If you want to enter the Le Mans 24 Hours, you must get an invitation from the A.C.O.

EDIT: The Le Mans use GTE cars which is similar to GT2 cars. The Z4 and SLS are GT3 cars...
 
The blue and white one.. Cough :lol:

Ohh you :lol:

THIS. SO MUCH THIS.

I gave up on Le Mans a few years ago because of this reason, but came back in 2010 and focused mainly on the non-LMP1 classes, and found myself engrossed. So I keep coming back despite the Audi walkover.

Hardly a walkover for Audi in 2010 and it's not gonna be a walkover or a parade today. Though, I entirely agree, we need more LMP2/GT coverage.
 
Toyota Nr. 7 is dead... Or perhaps not.
 
A Toyota stopped between the chicanes in the Hunadieres straight! "I HAVE NO ENGINE!" #7

He's running again now.
 
Number 7. No engine!

It's moving quite quickly for a car with no engine. Pitstop this lap by any chance?
 
Toyota off to the side.
 
#7 Toyota out.
 
NOOOO, Lapierre's Toyota came to a halt. Engine's out?
 
What have I missed lads? Just noticed a Toyota off.
 
Dose any one no why there isn't any SLS or Z4 GT3's at Le Mans?

Because GT3s don't race at Le Mans, as GT3 is a SRO class while at Le Mans the cars run to ACO rules, hence the GTE cars.
 
Hoping he can make it back to pits #7

I'm sure it's bound to get closer in the upcoming hours. Remember we still have 21:30 hours to go, they won't go into full psycho-murderer-do-or-die mode just yet.
Yeah, obviously. These longer races have a different flow. It's not total action 100%.
Can't wait for the sky to dim and lights come on!
 
The only good track Tilke has made is Istanbul Park...

Agreed. Law of averages dictates he'll get it right at least once, and that is a genuinely great track. Elevation changes, challenging spectacular corners, and actual places to overtake and race. Not his usual pattern of 'technical section, technical section, looooong straight, very tight hairpin, technical section, technical section, repeat.'

One of the best new tracks in the world is the new one in Argentina, Portero De Los Funes? May have got that wrong, but what an epic track.

Also, one of the Toyotas is out. When can we stop the pretence that anyone other than Audi might win this? :grumpy:
 
Toyota back running again, electrical problems for the 7.
 
Lapierre did complained about the engine earlier in the race, right? If that's the reason then I'm not surprised. Gosh, this is not looking good :(
 
It's not out guys..
 
Calm down guys... he's not out, yet. This is what it comes down to, reliability.
 
McNish just pulled an 11 lap stint. I wonder if they can repeat that often?
 
Back. Phew.

Audi, please lose the rear wings or whatever, don't win!
