Adam gets mentioned again.

They just love me correcting them all the time...

 

[Savolainen83]

Where's the ZEOD nissan prototype? Is it long gone?

Yes, very, couldn't even last for a few hours.

 

[Kamuifanboy]

Having raced against Harry in the MRF Challenge last season, I'd like to see him and the JOTA team pick up the W in the LMP2 class. Such a classy kid.

 

[Ninners]

Audi 1-2.

 

[Bo]

TDS lead P2!

Tincknell is coming fast.

 

[Diehardracer]

Rob Leupen is at the German Eurosport commentators booth and he said that they can't really celebrate that.
Toyota considers three cars for 2015 by the way.

OK in the grand scheme of things it is pretty rubbishy by all accounts. But given the fact they have been third best all over most of France to Audi and Porsche they can consider 4th a strong place. Given the luck they have had I am surprised they are not with the Prost/Beche/Heidfeld Rebellion car.

 

[Bram Turismo]

Phewww...Poulsen man! Dinnit give us a heart attack!

I am still praying Toyota can finish well anarl.

Toyota will win this race.

Easy.

Porsche 919: a really expensive demonstration of why V4 engines totally suck.

What motorcycles like Hondas have been proving this for years have they???

Well done Audi. The competition will have to come back alot stronger if they're going to beat Team Joest they're a class act. Wonder if they've been shooting Truth In 24 III.

 

[Bo]

Christ, #35 in the garage .

 

[lGNAl]

Ruberti out again ... grrrrr cousin 7th.

 

[Ninners]

Christ, #35 in the garage .

They've been down on power for a while now. No surprise really.

 

[gtone339]

Yes, very, couldn't even last for a few hours.

What a shame. May delay their LMP1 project?

 

[20832]

Audi 1-2.

 

[Falcon787B]

JOTA to the lead in P2, OAK Racing in the garage?

 

[MLDoom]

The range of emotions this race is giving me. haha

 

[Falcon787B]

My thoughts exactly.

 

[Bo]

What a shame. May delay their LMP1 project?

No, won't affect it in any way.

Tincknell leads.

 

[Amac500]

I'm not so sure. They are again inheriting the win through others misfortune. I guess staying in it is considered "work."

Well by that definition nobody would've worked for it cus all the LMP1 cars had problems.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Toyota not only considering three cars for 2015, they also plan to up the electric power to 8 megajoule.

 

[Coiler]

If someone would say me that you can win 2014 LeMans with changing a turbo, and injector. I would say its a joke.

 

[Bo]

Well by that definition nobody would've worked for it cus all the LMP1 cars had problems.

Every car will have a problem. It's the one who has the least problems who wins.

 

[MLDoom]

Toyota is one lap down now.

 

[Falcon787B]

So am I correct in saying that EVERY car in LMP1 has had some sort of problem at least once in the race?

 

[Vinylshark]

Webber out of the car

 

[Diehardracer]

Jota are doing amazingly well this year. First in the ELMS and now here. Seems like their form in the ELM at Silverstone and Imola was no fluke. I thought when Gene went to Audi they wold struggle but with Dolan/Tinknell/Turvey they have been consistent for so long. They have always bee in the running at the top of LMP2.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Well by that definition nobody would've worked for it cus all the LMP1 cars had problems.

The #8 Toyota ran trouble free, it was only in the pits because a Ferrari rammed it off the track.
The TS040 is pretty reliable, the issue in the #7 was something Toyota never experienced before.

#20 Porsche retired.

 

[Bo]

Porsche are out.

 

[MLDoom]

Webber is out of the car!

 

[20832]

#20 retired.
