Crappy, miscellaneous streams will popup once the race starts. But there is this:

http://tensport.com.au/lemans-live-streaming.htm

Probably geoblocked (Australia), but if it works the same way as Tensport's F1 streams, then it is easily bypassable with Chrome and this extension:

1. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...pbenpmdnkifigc

2. put the settings like this:


3. test with some F1 video: http://tensport.com.au/video.htm?movideo_p=47157

4. hope that it works the same way for the Le Mans stream

You extension link doesn't work for some reason.

I saw the same thread on Ten tenths though, here's the working link for the Chrome extension:

The extension's called " Header Hacker"

The race starts at 15:00 french time. But, I'm unsure about the timezone difference. What's France's timezone and is there a time adjustment in summer?

Yes sir, it's actually very good. Anyone know whose narrating it?
 
While watching "Road To Le Mans", I notice that while the car was red and even before the bodywork changes (which apparently took place before the crash), the garage had blue. I know the blue is the Hybrid color, but I just thought that was interesting and it seems that it was destined from the start for the car to eventually be blue.

William Fichtner was what I read in the credits.
 
Maybe Jason Statham like he did for the Audi one. I only watched 15 minutes and it was mainly the drivers talking during that period.

That show justed showed me how amazing the car sounds out of the pits. This thread already did that somewhat as well.
 
I'm so pumped for tomorrow, going to go to bed at a decent time tonight so I can watch as much as possible tomorrow without falling asleep:P See you guys here tomorrow, should be lots of fun, race banter and chat is usually a riot.
 
Is there any way I can get a mobile stream for this race? I am stuck in a car all day tomorrow traveling

Speed's website stream should work if you have an android phone. But how well it works will depend on your network. You can also listen in @ Radio Le Mans.

How do I get radio Le mans? I have heard of it, but how do I access it?
 
This sucks. I wasn't able to finish an essay today so I'll have to chew trough it tomorrow. Damned Nietzsche, y u so hard? :lol:.

Anyways, going to get some sleep. Tomorrow is the most wonderful time of the year (Yeah, screw christmas!) and I won't miss it. I hope to hang around with my dear GTPers and discuss it in the great ambient we always have :cheers:.

Oh, and GO AUDI!!! :D

If your phone has an internet radio application, you can search for it. If you don't have one, you may want to try to go to radiolemans.com and click on Listen Live. A bit of experiment :lol:

www.radiolemans.com You try it now with your phone, go there and on the left side you should see in red listen now.
If you have an android phone -
Click the icon, it should pop up listen with web or android system, click android. Then use the default sound player. You should be good.

Cheers for the link, being in Australia it'll be good (for us - cough).

Good to see some support of the race by Channel Ten.

However {begin rant} I still can't understand what Ten are doing, they've shown the Lemans 24hr the last few years. For those overseas who mightn't know. Ten in Australia have set up their own HD channel for sport ONE HD, 2 years back?? not too sure. Anyway they had shown the Lemans 24hr the last 2 years on ONE HD. Coverage had been great.

Over the last little while they have started to move that channel further away from sport, the last 3 or 4 F1 races have been shown on regular Ten, not ONE HD so you miss the true HD quality. This was done to show netball I think.

Anyway I just checked the guide for tomorrow night, the line up they are showing on ONE HD during the closing 6 hrs of the Lemans 24hr.

6:00 - Crash Course - some reality show on driving I think.
6:30 - Mega Bridges - Docu shows the building of a large bridge in Greece. I think I've seen this one, quite good BUT not sport related.
7:30 - Cops - Yeah that show that's been on for 20 yrs where they follow US cops about.
8:00 - Moto2 - Moto GP feeder series live from Great Britain round. The Main Moto GP race is on Ten after this. At least this is sport!!!
9:30 - Midnight - Movie (Jarhead) - A poorly performing movie about the gulf war pt2.

{end rant}
 
Wow. Toyota are actually challenging Audi! Looks like we actually will have a race at the front this afternoon...

I mean i have no idea if its broadcast nowadays, but back in the day when i did own one even if stuff like that was broadcast they'd invite some nascar fellas to commentate and it was painful to listen to.
