80th running of the Le Mans 24 Hours - 16–17 June 2012

God this is stupid! Who the hell thought it was a good idea to have the two leading cars start in the middle of the 🤬 grid!!!!

Freakin ridicules. Audi sucks for overtaking in the pits. Pretty much cheating. So much for good sportsmanship.

 

[Cano]

From awesome race to sucking out in an hour.

 

[gtafreak47]

Toyota need that Audi driver to help them get that rear bodywork off.

How dare they ram off the Delta wing

 

[otakukid96]

The Toyota needs to be taken out of the race now JUST for what it did to the Deltawing.

 

[uMadson?]

I knew it would happen though, the understeer and all.

I pity the fool who took out someone not in his class.

 

[Tornado]

I find it funny that I was about to say it would happen... and then it happened a second later.

That sucks though really, what a shame.

As is usually the case.

 

[Tired Tyres]

I knew that blue paint would give Toyota "Peugeot luck".

They should have stayed red and white.

 

[F1 fan]

That was too hot-headed from Nakajima's side. Not only he took out someone who isn't even in competition, he ignored the fact he's the only car left in his team 👎. Hopefully the Toyota can be repaired.

I imagine I wasn't the only person nervous at the fact that the only remaining Toyota's fate was in the hands of Kazuki Nakajima. With that said, I think I'll get a few hours sleep. Maybe if we're lucky the Toyota might have a few good hours, or the Audi's will have a few bad hours.

 

[TheBook]

OH NO!!! It was the Toyota that got hit by the DeltaWing from the rear?!!

Toyota moved across the track into the DW. No possible way that the incident was anything but the Toyota's fault.

 

[Patrick]

Na na na na, hey hey hey, good bye.

Overtaking in the pits is allowed.

 

[GTP_Monkey]

OH NO!!! It was the Toyota that got hit by the DeltaWing from the rear?!!

I suggest you watch it again.

They where side by side.

 

[Squach240]

My heart just paused for a second when the Toyota smacked the DeltaWing off in that area of the track. :|

Come on guys, you only got one car left, it's still early!

 

[Demon Drone]

Just saw the Toyota DW wreck and what a dumbass move by the Toyota driver.

 

[Jsoccer9]

Are there any penalties in Le Mans?

 

[MedigoFlame]

None of the streams I'm watching showed the Deltawing's crash. >_O

 

[Dhalism]

any clip of the ferrari crash u guys were talking about?

How is doing a quicker pitstop poor sportsmaship? I'm not really sure about the rules but I think, and correct me if I'm wrong that overtaking on track is forbidden but are the pits part of the track? Audi is just abnormally fast in pit stops, and they can, as shown last year, have their car enter 2nd, get a full service and come out of pitlane first.

 

[Cano]

well, another win for Audi this year. Toyota deserves this.

 

[Gejabo]

Is #42 back on track?

 

[GTP_Monkey]

any clip of the ferrari crash u guys were talking about?

Read back a few pages.

 

[Wiegert]

As is usually the case.

Oh hai poor spelling.


It's creepy how we called that just before it happened.

 

[obsessive rules]

Listening to the radio. They say Toyotas lm racers are fitted with a thing to stop it flipping... Worked well :/

 

[C-ZETA]

The Toyota and DeltaWing were at a 3 abreast point, though I don't know how the DeltaWing could get hit for being such a midget in the field.

 

[Emptyone]

First RLM moment of calling the Toyota a Peugeot looks like Nakajima just pulled across into the DW, maybe didn't see him, with him being sat on the left and the DW lowness

 

[uMadson?]

any clip of the ferrari crash u guys were talking about?

 

[Downhill Dino]

From awesome race to sucking out in an hour.

Yeah... this really does suck. That DeltaWing better make it through.

 

[Jawehawk]

Overtaking in the pits is allowed.

Just because it's allowed, doesn't make it right from the perspective of what's fair. It's pathetic to see someone regaining their position in such a way, when their opponent got the position fair and square.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Toyota driver got lucky the front of the DW is so narrow. A regular width car and it could have been much worse.

 

[SubaruWRC555]

Is #42 back on track?

yep
