BTW where is the Saleen S7 this year?

 

[F1KimiFreak]

Oh My... This is sad

There isn't a GT1 class anymore, so it cannot race.

 

[Mt. Lynx]

Both AMR-Ones in trouble already...

 

[Luminis]

Oh god, both Astons off the track in the first lap... Doesn't seem like much of a good start for them.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Both Astons in trouble 10 minutes into the race!

 

[gtsmashbros]

Ferrari off-not sure which one.

 

[Prince.M5]

Just 10 minutes into the race and both the #007 and #009 are in trouble...

 

[rocko100]

The Peugeots have Gran Turismo 5 plastered all over them, please DLC

 

[evil_dave86]

Bumper to bumper racing already! Guys you have over 23 hours left!

One of them is in the pits...we might see it back in the race.

 

[Luminis]

McNish already fighting with the Pug in front, looking good. 👍

#007. It has an alternator problem.

 

[Amin1992]

Good overtaking from McNish.

 

[Prince.M5]

The GTE Pro class is looking very good too, 458 is already in front not far from the battle for second between the Corvette and the BMW.

EDIT: And the BMW got passed the Corvette already... The #56 BMW also got passed another Corvette and is running away.

Well, Aston Martin are attempting to race with a pair of submarines. What else were they expecting? It's still a mystery why they seemed to think the design of the AMROne was a good idea, considering it appears to have been designed around the aerodynamic properties of an anvil.

 

[hampus_dh]

Go BMW!

 

[Tired Tyres]

Pitstops already. Just half an hour in.

 

[Tommi]

#26 Signatech Nissan A.k.a Lucas' car has a left rear puncture.

 

[Amin1992]

The three Peugeot's set to take the lead.

Haha, make that two .

 

[NSX>GOD]

damn lucas' car has a puncture

 

[F1KimiFreak]

#26 hopefully the badluck has been paid by this already, everyone has such a moment at least.

 

[gtsmashbros]

Is that Lucas Ordonez's car going in with a torn tire?

EDIT: How many positions did he lose?

 

[Mt. Lynx]

I´m thinking they either started with less fuel, but also that they may be timing their stops so they don´t have to fill up and change tyres at the same time that often.

 

[Prince.M5]

A slow puncture for the #26 Signatech... He may have hit a debris and hopefully there wouldn't be any serious damage done.

Looks like the #22 Kronos Aston also has a problem... Slowing on the Mulsanne.

 

[Old Boone]

Hopefully not too much damage to the bodywork from the tire on the Signatech Nissan. They picked a good place on the track if you're gonna have problems with the car.

Sweet. 👍

 

[gtsmashbros]

Anyone remember the plethora of tire punctures last year?
