2016 Le Mans 24 Hours - 15th to 19th June 2016

[IforceV8]

63 and 64 Corvette's were 1 sec slower in timing sector 2 which is Tetre Rouge to Mulsanne. 51 (AF) and 82 (Risi) Ferrari and the 69 Ford were the quickest GTE cars in every sector.

Has any body got an update on the repairs of the damaged or burnt cars from practice earlier?

 

[CarBastard]

Sounds like an intriguing series of events. Ford was probably very much sandbagging...but being fast doesn't guarantee you much at LeMans. Let's see how it turns out in the race.

Considering their budget, their drivers and the team running the cars I wouldn't say it's certain that Ford doesn't have the "it" besides speed that's needed to win at Le Mans. After all, those guys at Ganassi aren't strangers to driving for 24hrs. straight...

Still, if the sandbagging alegations are true, and it seems they are, I hope all EcoBoost engines on La Sarthe go kablooei with no harm done to the drivers !

At least the Vette's have got a chance only way Aston Martin or Porsche are winning is if everybody else has problems.

 

[acekev1983]

Both Audi's still being worked on going to miss the start of qualifying at least.

You do know Aston Martin were running 3:54's last year, yes?

 

[AJ]

Anyone else having problems with live video on the app?

Sorry no idea watching EuroSport listening to RLM.

Yes but they have been off the pace this year because of BoP.

 

[vrwmiaris]

It is working fine on my PC.

Anyone else having problems with live video on the app?

Yeah I am too. Every time I press one of the live cams, the app crashes.

For guys in the Us it's on FSGo. Use the RLM YouTube stream though as the commentators are terrible. It'll be a little out of sync but it's not a huge deal

 

[wowbaggerBR]

I had problems with the app. In the PC is working fine.

 

[Patrick]

Fords and Ferraris running 3:51s, good lord. Ford is also 6 MPH faster than non-turbo cars. Lol.

Thanks for this. It' beyond ridiculous that RLM don't get to do Le Mans since they do all the races.

What keeps the BMW M6 cars from IMSA away from Le Mans?

They aren't GTE cars.

 

[IforceV8]

Youtube stream is back

 

[Nielsen]

They aren't GTE cars.

Really? They are competing in IMSA's GTLM category. I've read it uses the same regulations as GTE.

Local homologation for M6.

Get this. Two cars given a 10 minute stop go penalty for not slowing in a slow zone... in this mornings FP1 during a red flag!!!

 

[Sertsa]

Uh oh. A Corvette's off.

Edit - Ricky Taylor. Just crunched the wall a bit.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

A yellow car driven by somebody called Magnussen is in the wall. Sounds familiar for this week.

E- No it's not. Wrong graphic

 

[FutureF1]

Oh FFS!

Sorry did I say something?
