Yeah, the leading Peugeot had some engine problem, got caught on fire and stopped in the middle of the track.

That gave Audi the 1-2.

Basically. the #2 Pugeot who was leading went out with an engine or drive train problem of some sort. And the #4 had to have the half shaft replaced. The #3 had its problem early on and the #1 had an alternator problem. Audi has had...well basically no problems.

 

[wbrinkman]

Interesting, cheers

 

[nostuner03]

another case of the fastest always doesnt win the race...

 

[Tommi]

Highcroft racing car going slow.👎 I didn't say anything.

Cable ties on the AF Corsa Ferrari FTW.

 

[SuperShouden]

But that #1 Peugeot is flying. Unfortunately, it's drive to catch up cost them a bit of an OOPS moment and they took out GT2 leading Corvette who fixed it,got back out but the damage was a little too much and the GT2 vettes are out. One of the GT1 Vettes experienced engine problems and so, that leaves only a single Corvette in the entire field.

Aston off

 

[SuperShouden]

Last Lap times are showing 12 cars in GT class including the 64. but that might not be accurate.

 

[NapoleonMikey]

Thats a shame to see another Aston out.

 

[SuperShouden]

75 off...again

 

[Tommi]

Aston off

Wasn't Signature Plus the highest placed Aston Lola too?.

 

[Wardy 944]

No it was running 2 places behind the 009

 

[Tommi]

No it was running 2 places behind the 009

Thanks, thats good then I must have misheard RLM earlier.

 

[Northstar]

Shaping up to be a good finish.


Long drive home for the 008

#75 off....yet again

 

[NapoleonMikey]

75 off...again

and again

 

[wbrinkman]

uff 75 porsche off

 

[SuperShouden]

Hey, guess what, the 75 Porsche is off again.

 

[Northstar]

Maybe someone wound up in the #75 pit while looking for the GT5 booth and they let them in the car.

Sure is driving like the people in the demo videos do.

 

[nostuner03]

the tail lights are faster than the headlights..lol

 

[SuperShouden]

full course caution to clean the track? maybe?

Yep, they're trying to gain a few tenths in that corner to improve their overall fastest time for the leaderboards.

Peugeot cutting corners in the pit entrance now!!

 

[Northstar]

Rallying......Peugeot Le Mans style

 

[Silent Drifter]

The #1 Peugeot got a little air born going over the curb, and the 009 spun.

 

[Crash]

That was a pretty spectacular jump by that Peugeot...

As much as they are trying to push the car, that kind of abuse can't be good for it.

 

[NapoleonMikey]

Finally there getting Anthony out of that car. He just seems way to reckless trying to make up time.

and the 009 went for a spin with some crazy marshals helping him.

 

[SuperShouden]

Team Peugeot just had another Oops moment and almost took themselves out coming into pits.

009 Aston spun...almost collected the 75 Porsche and the #7 Audi

 

[Prince.M5]

BMW going slow!! Owh no

 

[Tommi]

That is one depressing car park. (The dead car park)

 

[SuperShouden]

that's the last BMW, too.
