2024 World Endurance ChampionshipSports Cars

Last year, when it rained quite a bit, the race wasn't neutralized. Difference was that it was mostly during daytime.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Couldn't get to sleep anyway. Never can when it's Le Mans.

 

[SKOALBANDIT]

what we have here is Beastie Boys levels of sabotage. Thanks Mother Nature, I guess

 

[Grayfox]

Surprised the stewards have not black flagged that car since its wiper is not working

I’m still happy with the race. Cars haven’t stopped on track or in the pits and we’ll have a large amount of cars racing for this final third of the race.

The bad news with that radar is there is another band of showers building off to the west offshore.

I see what you mean.

 

[McLaren]

Feels like at this rate, it's going to become a sprint run to the finish. Good thing the leaders are still within' spitting distance of each other.

I’m loving the contrasting driver/engineer conversations:
Cadillac (runs great in wet) “No standing water. Let’s go racing!”
Ferrari (runs great in the dry) “Conditions are atrocious. We need to stay yellow!”

How much distance has this safety parade covered? In a straight line they could probably be in Monaco by now.

 

[Savolainen83]

Safety cars speeding up, talks of unifying the field behind single car.

 

[wowbaggerBR]

Come on, Eduardo, let's go!

 

[05XR8]

Uhhh, listen to the driver please.

Apologies to LMP2 fans, but I kind of feel like we only need two categories, prototypes and GT cars. Eliminating LMP2 would open up more spaces for both.

So, I didn't miss anything. ^^

Nope.

Just a series of unhinged commentary.

Incredible! Free the beasts now!

Agreed, no need for spec cars in this. Hypercars, GT, and let's bring a NASCAR back... and a GT500 car... and a V8 Supercar...

You’ve missed out on feeling very safe.

 

[McLaren]

Based on Downhill Dino's post at 9pm (my time) talking about the start of the safety car & it's now nearly 1am... we've really been just trotting along for 4 hours now?

Yes, yes we have.

Yep. I'm just casually listening to the Beastie Boys at this point

Same thoughts, it reminds me the Oreca FLM09 era in IMSA.

 

[Savolainen83]

Merging has begun.

 

[McLaren]

Yes, yes we have.

Thank goodness I'm using the 7-day trial for HBO Max. I'd be upset if I spent $20 to catch this uninterrupted.

Oh yeah, always reserve a few spots for exhibition cars like NASCAR, the Deltawing from a few years ago, etc.

 

[05XR8]

The #78 and #87 need to pass around. They're ahead of the #92.

 

[RobertHammer]

Still miles better than previous N24

 

[05XR8]

Yes, baby!

Prepare for the 8Hours of the 24!
