Just got up, I see that Toyota is number #1. 👍

 

[Furinkazen]

Always enjoy Nevilles Le Mans commentaries 👍

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Scumbag LMP2s destroying the battle for GTE Pro. Now they have to catch up to each other again.

Aston and Corvette leaving the Ferrari behind

 

[Flex0r]

Nice I'm rooting for the Vette just for the glorious sound.

 

[lGNAl]

OMG 11th now gooooooooooooo

 

[Furinkazen]

Nice I'm rooting for the Vette for the glorious sound alone.

If he's awake.. @LMSCorvetteGT2 it's the good old days all over again

Can't hear you over the sound of the Corvette.

Aston and Corvette leaving the Ferrari behind

But, dude, WAY behind. When we were onboard the Pracing Donkey, it really surprised me how far ahead the two car's tail-lamps were all of a sudden.

But dat downshift from the 458 doe

Glorious balls-to-the-wall downshifting by Toni Vilander! Here's hoping the engine isn't too hurt by it. We still have more than 12 hours to go !

 

[ProjectWHaT]

What if the Porsche catches up to them?

 

[Organ-Donor]

Nvm

Your updates are gold mate. Great for catching up when the broadcast your relying on is taking a break from Le Mans.

Thank you sir 👍

By the way, is the timing slow to update for anyone else?

Of course they'll say that, Don Panoz is already on their back about them "Stealing his idea" (which ironically, it wasn't).

Regarding them "Focusing on their 2015 project", this is part of their plan: Garage 56 one year (to develop their Electric powerplant) and then a full, legal 2015 LMP. Not a waste of time considering that powerplant is what they'll bring to the 2015 car.

But the electric power plant they developed won't do crap on heavier car without the aero. Why wouldn't they develop it in the proper condition of an LMP1 legal car?

The point was to do the lap. Not ultra quick but race pace. The aero was proof of another concept (the Delta concept) in order to show how efficient it's possible to make a car.

Plus, it was a fans favourite, like the deltawing. The LMP, if it wasn't winning, wouldn't get the media coverage. See reference: Rebellion racing #12 before retirement.

Well the DeltaWing I would say is more polarizing because people seem to either love or hate it. But again, it relies on being light weight and highly dependent on aero that you won't see on a street car.

Official livestream is now in sync...finally!

Because this isn't solely for hybrid knowledge. It's to make history, and set a world record.

Street DeltaWing being planned. Lightweight is the future of sustainable motoring.

Where is everyone seeing this GTE-Pro battle???? PLEEEEAAASE drop a link!

Two minutes behind for me.

It's over for now.

 

[Jason115]

That Ferrari sounds sweeeet on downshifts

 

[R5]

"You won't see on a street car"

UK publication EVO Magazine already drove the early prototype for the Nissan Bladeglider. Which shows that Nissan is deadly serious about doing exactly that, bringing this aero to the road.

Dunno, but OMG LOOK A FERRARI EXITING THE PITS VERY SLOWLEEEH!!!

 

[GTracer98]

These mechanics are all asleep! On the floor, on chairs... Next someone will fall asleep under a car or while refueling.

 

[lGNAl]

HAhaha Porsche got passed. Go cousin 10th now in GTE Am

 

[Amac500]

Street DeltaWing being planned. Lightweight is the future of sustainable motoring.

But doing it for history is like I already said, to do that kind of stuff publicly is for the marketing rather than focusing on applying hybrid to an LMP1. And one isn't being planned to my knowledge, somebody made an internet concept rendering, but again Don Panoz owns the rights to it and Heaven knows Panoz isn't getting a street car off the ground.

"Here lies the mole"

 

[Divinus]

Anyone saw the "dead" mechanic in the official stream?

Edit: Tree'd

I wanted the full experience, so I put one of my 1080p monitors in portrait mode. Got cams for the Nismo pit, Nismo LMP2 car, #73 vette, #74 vette, Corvette pit, Audi cams, Radio le mans cam, Autosport live feed, spotters guide, live timing, and twitter feed for all of the teams.
