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

I saw that earlier, I'm not surprised really. I just can't wait for the inevitable cut off for some other sport that's doing a practice session or whatever. I don't understand how Fox Sports get away with this.

So instead of starting on FoxSports1 in HD this morning as scheduled they decided to air some golf instead. So we start on FoxSports2 in standard definition!!

It is in HD, your cable/dish network is the problem.

I'm very much enjoying having Tom Kristensen as co-presenter, I find him really likeable as a person.

Crikey, awful weather. If it keeps up there's no way we'll have a normal start. The spray through the Ford chicane even at crawling pace is absolutely terrible.

 

[Furinkazen]

Bit wet.

 

[Coiler]

Water leaking inside the Ford GT

Is it broadcasting on FoxSports1 (like it was supposed to) where you are? Anywhere I've lived the past few years, FoxSports2 has always been standard definition (across multiple cable companies).

Maybe it helps others to get away from him safely before he starts his manouvers ( applies only if Krohn himself is starting)

Also, safety car start it seems.

 

[LumpiestFish]

Safety car start, bummer

 

[Scuderia Paul]

Safety Car start.

 

[Bo]

SC start as expected. Definitely the right call.

In before "muh danger!!1".

 

[NW48]

It's gonna be a wet start. Would have liked it to pour down at night though.

 

[Coiler]

Living 300km from Lemans, the forcast for the whole weekend is pretty bad.

 

[Furinkazen]

Why? To see safety car racing?

Why was the 63 sent to the back?

No it is on FS2 right now, I have DirecTV ch. 618. Login to fox sports go using your cable login for sort of HD.

 

[Coiler]

Yep "It always rains in LeMans"

 

[Northstar]

Why was the 63 sent to the back?

All those cars didn't have a driver do the mandatory distance in qualifying.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Have you tried the App version? Perhaps try a different browser?

Just got up. PC only here, Chrome is the only browser I have in stalled.

 

[MustangManiac]

10 minutes to go...I have been waiting all year for this 👍

 

[Savolainen83]

Not enought nighttime laps in the quali/practice: http://www.lemans.org/en/News/last-minute-changes-to-the-24-hours-of-le-mans-starting-grid/41497

 

[Coiler]

[Northstar]

[Tired Tyres]

#67 Ford in the garage.

 

[acekev1983]

#67 Ford back into the Garage

 

[NW48]

Why? To see safety car racing?

No, just the goosebumps you get watching it. It's truly something else rain at night at Le Mans.

 

[Sertsa]

Uh oh, 64 Ford back in the garage.

Edit: Or 67? Oops, too late.
