I hope nobody comes in here blabbing about F1 during the race, I will have both qually & the race on the DVR for after LeMans.

What F1 race?

The drivers, teams and marshalls in the supposedly highest tier in motorsport are afraid of a little water. If they were aquaplaning, I would completely understand having the safety car out or postponing the race, but this is just sad. Just plain silly to watch the "top tier" racing division not being able to handle less than optimal conditions.

I'm loving that Larbre's running Corvette's in GTE-AM.



Uncultured swines .

They always do...there is a second one in AM as well.

 

[CarBastard]

The track workers are trying to dry the kerbs with such gusto that it's unbelievable!

Better safe than sorry.

Was hoping to see a couple racing laps before I had to go, but apparently that's not going to happen. See you guys later

Couldn't agree with you more, they should have started the race two laps ago.

 

[Flaren89]

Ok safety reasons... But they are looking too much into it, after F1 Monaco GP 8 laps done behind SC and it was time to get Inters when it got into the pits, now SC keeping deployed after 45 minutes with teams getting Inters meanwhile...
FIA being as stupidest ever...

 

[Savolainen83]

Nothing against the Corvettes but Larbre should be using the succesor to this:

 

[Jawehawk]

Better safe than sorry.

If you aren't willing to risk anything at all, then sport, and especially top tier sport, isn't the place for you.

 

[IforceV8]

What F1 race?

The one with the karting track thru the castle with the banners hung on the building to hide the slums? I would have been arrested in that country for making that post...

I'm going to start adding "blind whinging about safety cars" to the drinking game.

There are several reasons the SC is still out - the biggest one being the fact there are marshals on track. They've already given the call that the track conditions have cleared up, so it has nothing to do with standing water anymore.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Get on with it.

"Let's get a jet dryer out!"

It would take more than an hour to go around the track once.

 

[Vinylshark]

While we're still waiting for the first green flag, are there actually any rumors/plans that Henry Pescarolo will return to Le Mans? Really miss the Pescarolo cars.

 

[Ameer67]

SC coming in this lap.

 

[ukfan758]

Safety car lights are out!

 

[NW48]

Safety Car in this lap

 

[Savolainen83]

Ligths are off on the Safety Car, we are getting ready to race!

 

[Nexus]

Safety car coming in this lap.

Nah get NASCAR's trusty Air Titan!

 

[C-ZETA]

Here we go with the 23 and a bit hours of Le Mans.

They can't that car has been outdated for some time.

It should be safe...Jaun is not around to hit it

I KNOW RIGHT?

It breaks my heart seeing all this years his face on the gallerys and reports but no news about his legendary face returning to the paddock...

AND WE'RE GOING GREEN IN 3...2...1...!

 

[Bram Turismo]

About time this SC nonsense stopped, there was barely any spray coming off the cars.

 

[catamount39]

3...2...1...

 

[Bealdor]

Safety car lights are out!

At least two laps too late IMO.

 

[ukfan758]

Green!
