Crash ... peugeot

Edit: Ah the oreca. Nothing serious so to seem.

Oreca Pug

9 cars out of the race out of 56.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Is that the Oreca Peugeot?

 

[Tower Turn 13]

Yeah 58 with McNish, Luxury Racing, surprisingly their car is still running. Guess McNish took about 90 percent of that crash :/.

The other car 59 is thankfully very competitive in class, between 5th and a little better depending on pit stops.

Also surprisingly Evoras are 11 and 16 in GTPro? I love Lotus with all my heart but figured they'd be, well, last and last.

 

[ivoyared]

A Pug crashed.

 

[Scalage]

Oreca pug seems to be out

 

[CarBastard]

Things appear under control for Audi. They're running smooth but consistant, blistering fast pit stops, and an opponent that isn't getting close nor far.

Gentleman, make yourselves comfortable. We have eleven hours and fourty minutes left.

They've made up places through others mistakes and reliability. Their pace is still pretty rubbish.

 

[hampus_dh]

actually its 12 hours and 37min

 

[Submerged]

A car seems to be off. Looks like a 458?

Nah its the Gulf AMR Middle East Vantage. Think its before or after Porsche Curves.

 

[CarBastard]

True. Ohhh damn...I'm getting tired. Time for plan B, Red B .

If Aston Martin's were as fast as they are gorgeus...they'd still be lost in LMP1. But their GTE cars would be even faster than the LMP2s! .

Seeing a closed top LMP without a wheel put the fear of god into me. Phew, it was the Oreca Matmut 908. Sorry for Hughes de Chaunac.

Ah cheers. Can never tell them apart with the black and white views... especially on a streaming telly, with pretty poor 'net speeds!


Oh lord, look at that wrecked nose on a Pug! Oh wait, that was the number 10 Pug.... nothing new here....

 

[Scalage]

Oreca Pug now has a puncture
Havent seen one of those for a while

 

[ivoyared]

Another crash. A 908, again.

 

[Tired Tyres]

It's the same 908. Number 10

 

[CarBastard]

Rolex Blipvert .

 

[Submerged]

Anyone see the reply of the Number 10 Pug?

Presumably it hit a barrier?

 

[Tommi]

Ah cheers. Can never tell them apart with the black and white views... especially on a streaming telly, with pretty poor 'net speeds!


Oh lord, look at that wrecked nose on a Pug!

I know the feeling. Fortunately I have eurosport HD this year, helps for situations like that!

And yeah that 908 is in a bit of a state.

 

[Mt. Lynx]

even the commentators are laughing at the blipverts.
"Hope you didn´t miss too much while we were gone..."

I think they were planning on having teas and coffees during the adverts!

 

[hampus_dh]

i think we should be glad either way. we will all probably have epileptic seizures after the race but atleast we get more racing

I'm thinking exactly the same.

Who's begun with his stash of Red Bull already? .

That's a good point and well made!

 

[MitchZ06]

Corvette #73 slowly working its way into 2nd, sitting 3rd atm. Corvette 1st and 3rd in GTE-Pro, BMW 6th and 10th. Not going good for the Bavarians...

 

[Luminis]

Dang, the only thing that could stop me from pulling an all-nighter actually decided to butt in: A girl. Always at the most inapropriate times. I'm off then, guys. Enjoys the race 👍

 

[Mt. Lynx]

Had 3 so far! Think Im´m gonna get some coffee now...

Not me, I want to keep my hair a little longer
