24 Heures du Mans 12th-13th June 2010

Come on Matmut, I don't want to see all Audi 1, 2, 3... Going to be boring then.

The gap is around 8 seconds.

 

[Crash]

The Matmut 908 will most likely be able to squeeze a 3rd place finish as long as they build a small lead over #7 Audi and then just some what ease up on the car and just drive it home. And something tells me that that's what they plan on doing.

The Peugeot is much prettier than the Audi though. Why can't Audi make a pretty Le Mans race car?

 

[MiamiPhill]

This is the first Le Mans I've watched (I should be ashamed, I know), and I must say I am very surprised it didn't rain at all during the race.

Every now & then you can get through the race without rain.

 

[wbrinkman]

There we go!

 

[Christian_C]

Peugeot gone for good now

 

[Wardy 944]

O' dear that's such a shame

 

[Silent Drifter]

Peugeot is done.

 

[NapoleonMikey]

Not a single Puegot will even finish the race.

 

[Crash]

Problem with Mamut Peugeot?

"Smoke and flames coming out of exhaust on the right side"

!!

 

[kikifq]

lol there goes another pug

 

[RACECAR]

The 4 is out now. Told you it was a bad idea to push. Looks like a Turbo fire, just like with the #2 car.

 

[Tommi]

Thats it, gone at arnage. I bet it's from pushing the car too hard.

What a shame.👎

 

[Falcon787B]

Oh dear. My bad all, I jinxed them

ermm...c'mon AMR!

EDIT: How galling must it be to have ALL the Peugeots out and not ONE SINGLE problem for the Audis. No sympathy for Davidson, but still, lot of sympathy for the Peugeot guys.

 

[TheBook]

And with only an hour and fifteen minutes left.

I don't much like the Peugeot works teams, but I was hoping the Oreca would at least give the Audis a bit of a challenge. Oh well...

 

[Prince.M5]

Owkey looks like the Peugeot, in fact all 4 Peugeots are having the same problem. Not good...

There's a talk though that the Audi is actually using the brand new engine while the Peugeot is not. So it's done... It's all over and heading to a boring Audi 1, 2 and 3. Inconsolable...

EDIT: They took the risk, then they paid for it. Good thinking Peugeot.

 

[PeterJB]

Damn it! Not another one! Audi are so boring! Why do they have to win every time?!

Except last year

 

[freshseth83]

Hot-damn what a shame! Running too rich, setting lap records and all, blew the engines.

Stupid Audi 1, 2, 3... Next year guys, next year!

 

[nostuner03]

thats what happends when you push too hard.

 

[MiamiPhill]

Is timing and scoring broken again.....?
oh the 908 is broken....never mind.

 

[Mr.Skyline09]

boooom

Price check on aisle Boom!

 

[Ardius]

Well, at least its not the usual drivers winning.

 

[RACECAR]

Well, at least its not the usual drivers winning.

Yep, totally new driver combo about to take the checkers (if they can keep it alive).


And whats with everyone acting as if Audi is the worst thing thats happened?

 

[Antti-san]

What a surprise!

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Is the Audi R15+ the ugliest car to ever win Le Mans?

I actually quite like it. It's like the Darth Vader of Le Mans. Darth Car.

 

[Falcon787B]

I actually quite like it. It's like the Darth Vader of Le Mans. Darth Car.

Haha! I like it

What does that make Anthony Davidson? The Bobba Fett of Le Mans? I'm no Star Wars expert...

 

[nostuner03]

wooo! american might be on the podium

 

[arvore]

The 4 is out now. Told you it was a bad idea to push. Looks like a Turbo fire, just like with the #2 car.

Yeah,total lack of strategy for such a long race as Le Mans
I guess this was ment to be Audi's year again...

 

[spyrrari]

Unbelievable!!!...Feel so sorry for Peugeot that they didn't make it to 3rd place...

I am absolutely not a Peugeot fan,but they deserved at least that!!...


spy.

 

[freshseth83]

The 908 was an awesome car, just too much was being run on it.

EDIT: At least the Aston Martin will get a top 5, Go Gulf!

 

[Wardy 944]

When a competitors car fails in sport car racing everyone feels the pain, when one Fails in F1 everybody cheers.
