Do the London Metropolitan Police know Aston Martin borrowed on of their Vauxhalls for the weekend?

I'm not English and even I laughed at that reference. Hopefully it won't run like an Astra too, when it comes to racing...

And yes, it may work in hypnotic terms, and hypnotize Ferrari drivers to crash into other GT car... Oh, wait. :lol:

The Aston art car looks horrible. :ill::yuck:

I am not steeped in the same racing folklore and history as many fellow petrolhead's on her but this skepticism about Nissan a few pages ago is just about the barmiest, wackiest, pottiest, kookiest load of tripe, drivel, gibberish, bilge, balderdash and hooey I have ever heard. It would hardly be surprising if Nissan do badly given it is the teams first ever race. You can't seriously expect them to move mountains in only their first race!? If they finish Lap 1 without breaking down they can consider Le Mans a resounding success.

Give them time! They have the nucleus of a team that looks like it can take the car forward in terms of reliability, competitiveness and pace. I don't know how good they are individually they have Lucas Ordonez, Oliver Pla, Mark Shulzhitskiy, Tsugio Matsuda and Brits Alex Bumcombe, Max Chilton, Harry Tinknell and Jan Mardenbrough. That seems the backbone of a strong start in terms of future alumni. For a team that is brand new I think they did exceptionally well to get those names. They could have done a lot worse.

Is there any way I can award a medal for posts such as this?
 
Sorry I must be stupid because I actually don't know what stream you're talking about. And I have no idea where to find it. And I can't even find info on the FX GO stream either. Help! :(
 
I've been saying this a while now: WEC official straming is outstanding. Worth every cent. Sign the pack, don't be affraid, and enjoy a week worth of epic motorsport.

I'm not sure. The email address for questions about the service is web@fiawec.com, if you'd like to inquire, though.

Same here!


By uncut does it mean no commercials? since Fox Sports coverage is bad I was going to look into Fox Sports GO but this sounds better!

It doesn't have commercials and the stream goes on undisturbed. You can watch it on your computer, or mobile device, which I find more convenient.

If your cable provider doesn't carry Fox Sports 2 you can't get Fox Sports Go. Mine does not carry it so I can't help you out there. The WEC sign up page is here:

Don't feel bad. it is kind of hard to find on their page 👍
 
Unfortunately I don't have Fox Sports 2, strange they make GO only available to them. I've been talking to someone who does have FS2 though. Also thanks you very much for the link, probaby going for that in the end. :D 👍
