Sweet. I hope BMW finishes.

What did Anthony Davidson say about the Corvette crash? I missed his interview.

that camera guy sure likes to get closeups of the pit crew's asses

bwahahahahahahhahaha wow

 

[Tommi]

Sweet. I hope BMW finishes.

What did Anthony Davidson say about the Corvette crash? I missed his interview.

Basically he was saying it was all Collard's fault, the GT cars are annoying, get in the way and their races are unimportant.

Talking 🤬 and acting like a mardy little kid. 'Its not my fault he did it' when it was clearly his fault.👎

 

[Prince.M5]

And the BMW is out on the track.. God what a relief

Thank you so much BMW!!

EDIT: Car #15 just crashed!!

Baiscally he didn't give a 🤬 and that the vettes deserved it.

That and he said it served the Corvette right for being in the way.

I'll post up a link to the interview once it's up on RLM

What a complete tw*t. Has anybody managed to speak to the Corvette guys, or Collard?

Fehan gave his usual political speech to the media saying they where just going to get back out there and not quit but didn't really mention Davidson or really say what you know he wanted to say.

and the #8 just went head first into arnage.

 

[Silent Drifter]

#8 Audi has crashed. What position was he in?

Edit: Thanks for the info Speedster

 

[Speedster502]

Second place LMP1 Audi No.8 has crashed at the end of Arnage.

Fair enough, sort of usual not wanting to say anything controversial type interview?

Man, if I was Collard and someone pushed a microphone in my face, not sure I'd be able to be so diplomatic.

EDIT: Beaten AGAIN to the bounce! #8 Audi off. Does this gift 2nd to the #1 🤬 - I mean, Peugeot team?

 

[wbrinkman]

andre lotterer pushing a bit too hard on the audi

 

[Wardy 944]

#8 Audi makes a mistake

 

[Falcon787B]

andre lotterer pushing a bit too hard on the audi

Didn't he spin the Audi on the warm-up lap in the Spa 1000km?

 

[Crash]

#8 Audi back out on track

I think all racing drivers are like that really. Hyper competitive people are not normally very nice people to know. That's why PR people get them to say very boring bland things in interviews most of the time.

 

[Silent Drifter]

Peugeot is coming closer to second position.

 

[wbrinkman]

Didn't he spin the Audi on the warm-up lap in the Spa 1000km?

Can't remember, the warm-up lap there was a bit of total chaos anyway

You sure? I've known some to come across as thoroughly decent guys, maybe in the heat of racing though, you're correct. Oliver Gavin always strikes me as a good bloke, and I remember meeting Jason Plato a few years ago, thoroughly nice chap

But yeah...hmm, not much love for Davidson here.

 

[wbrinkman]

This is going to be good, Lotterer on his outlap trying to hold position. Very easy to spin the car now

 

[NapoleonMikey]

Hopefully the #8 will cause enough of a fight that it will cost him to much time to make up the lap on the leader.

[Silent Drifter]

#1 Peugeot is in second place now, unless the Audi can fight back.

 

[nostuner03]

i hope the peugeot can come back on the lead audi

 

[wbrinkman]

Nooooooo, go on Andre!

 

[Crash]

If my calculations are correct (albeit very rough), the Audi should be able to hold on to their lead, although very barely.

 

[Paulie]

i hope the peugeot can come back on the lead audi

You obviously haven't been following the race, or you wouldn't be saying that.
