It wouldn't work via the desktop website for me but did work fine via the app on both my android phone and iPad. Might be worth trying either of those if you run into the same issues tomorrow for the main race.Paid the ransom and spent the entire qualifying session loading and reloading the stream to see none of it.

Two things. 1) Is LMP1 gonna be just Toyota and Porsche all season or can another entry come in midway?
2) Jackie Chan DC Racing? That Jackie Chan?

Does he simply fund the team or does he show up at races in the pits and whatnot?

Take a few minutes and google what his thoughts are and you will probably find no reason to care anymore.
Top step in P2 and P3 and the Indy 500.

Note that I say "Sub class". Yes they are a P1 team, but they are essentially in LMP1L since they don't have a hybrid power unit whereas Porsche and Toyota are far and way in LMP1H.

The CLM is 2 seconds faster than last year. That's with only one shakedown at Snetterton before Silverstone. I don't think all the guys working in the team and their drivers feel it's a "pointless car". According to SC365, Kubica may yet drive for them this season, that's according to the team manager. Imo, they need someone like Maldonado, not Robert. He brings budget which the team needs and he's an f1 race winner, if not clumsy. Not even Kubica has won an F1 race As long as the team remains small and low on funds, they won't get someone like Kubica in there. Not full season at least, he probably wants to be paid.

And 1.7 sec slower than a order thru email spec class Oreca 07 with assembly required, batteries not included.The CLM is 2 seconds faster than last year.

They are "racing" for no team points, no podium, and no trophy.

So are some F1 teams. What's the point? Should they give up and go to a spec class and spend money on something they can't develop? 1 car vs how many Oreca's? Considering, the development of that spec lmp2 is multiple times better than the CLM plus the new faster ruleset they've still improved even though the rules have stayed the same for them.

Why are we hating on CLM? I thought GTP was all about the little guy fighting the bullies?
At least a team making its own car is far more interesting, even when knowing they have no chance.

Dunno. I just think its funny people "accuse" (if just being funny then cool
) them of sand bagging in the LMP1 class, yet they've actually improved a skosh since last year when we were complaining about them being too slow. 
Do they have a shot? Nah, but it's good to see one LMP1-L team trying still.

Colin being bullied and not being the bully? Not sure if this is a serious post or just a troll.

Serious post is serious. I'm talking about the car itself, all that internal team politics stuff I'm indifferent on.
As for the car being "sandbagged", maybe they are trading speed for reliability.
