Right...I'm sipping a cup of tea in absolute disbelief. I'm gonna start trawling through the previous 20 pages odd, but can someone explain how:

a) The Audis have managed to grab the lead
b) how BOTH GT2 Corvettes are out
c) What happened to the 007 Aston?

Woah...sleep's overrated anyway :indiff:
 
Davidson is a right cocky B:censored:d. It's those french idiots he's working for and F1 who's sculpted him into that.

JLOC now shown as an official retirement :(

:( They have done very well, shame a couple of problems out of their hand ruined the race for them. I'm really happy they made it this far, just look at the teams who have retired!.
 
Audi's gained the lead after all of the Pugeot's have have had reliability issues.

The #63 had engine problems the #63 was moved off track by the #1 Puegot then had problems after wards.

Cant even remember the aston anymore

Woah...sleep's overrated anyway :indiff:

a) the leading Peugeots both had engine problems and went out.

b) 63 Vette blew an engine or something, Peugeot caused the 64 to go out.

c) 007 I think had engine problems as well.

Woah...sleep's overrated anyway :indiff:

a) Pretty much the Peugeots had mechanical problems, while Audis did not.
b) #63 Corvette had an engine failure. #1 Peugeot was on the inside of the #64 Corvette in the Porsche curves, caused it to spin, and hit the wall hard. They repaired it, but then later had an engine problem.
c) Don't remember.

John hindy is spot on, the radiolemans commentary from 10am - 11am will be worth a re-listen just for Hindy rant at the end, pure gold

"He was driving like a D*ck"

He certainly is right, what a legend!.:)

Fixed it Grenade.;)

I just woke up and heard that as I turned on RLM, thought I was hearing things?!

Man, I thought Anthony came across as a complete arse earlier on in the race with his interview...I'm digging further stuff up, as you can understand, both of my favourite entries are out and I'm 🤬 right off that one of them was taken out by an arrogant Peugeot driver. Sod 'em, I don't want EITHER AUDI Or Peugeot to win, their attitudes stink. AMR to go from 6th to 1st in final hours! :P
 
I don't think I'll see the end of this. It's just after 2am, here with 4 hours to go. I'm tired and going to sleep. I gotta run some laps of Le Sarthe tomorrow. so... You'll all have to inform everyone who wins.
 
Something tells me that Peugeot is extremely desperate to win the race. If you're losing a foot race against somebody, do you go breaking things, shoving people, and things like that just to catch your opponent way in the distance? Peugeot is pushing WAY too hard. I wouldn't even push as hard as Peugeot is pushing right now in a Gran Turismo race!

They keep pushing too hard, they are only just going to make it easier for Audi to take the top step of the podium. About less than 3:44:00.000 left. Going to be interesting to see how this one plays out. Fight the urge to sleep!
 
Man, thanks guys for bringing me back up to speed...I'm depressed.

So proud of the Corvettes, the story of you guys watching their attempt at repairing the thing is heartening. Much love Corvette, and well done - is there a Spirit of Le Mans award, like they have at the Isle of Man TT? If there is, my nominations would be the Corvettes, JLOC and AMR (as someone already mentioned, they have no reason to run this race, they still aren't competitive against the diesels, yet they still do).

The least prefreble of the two diesel teams look odds-on to win, both Corvettes are out, and the diesels' attitudes stink. Hmmm...:ouch: :( :grumpy: 👎
