83rd Running Of The Le Mans 24 Hours - 13/14 June 2015.

Porsche need to do a Peugeot circa 2010 and detonate for Audi to win this now, they have simply spent too much time in the pits.

Is this a hangover from losing some key personal at the end of last year, and bringing in 'not Audi' people to replace them?

I think its just the nature of the race. I mean they did break the lap record, twice today.

Been watching for nearly 22 hours. I think its nap time. But if I take a nap Ill wake up in 13 hours! Lol.

Don't, you're almost there!

One of these days I need to make a trip down to Texas, to watch these cars. TUDOR and Road America is nice and all. But these cars are just cool.

I wanna go to Le Mans, I mean it's not too expensive to get in and I could drive down easily.

And sleep in my car if I need to.

Why is the rear camera being shown on the Fox Sports Corvette stream?

@hsv KEEP SUPPORTING AUDI, IT'S WORKING!

Audi's implosion continues....

 

[Silent Drifter]

#7 in garage, to fix engine cover.

@hsv KEEP SUPPORTING AUDI, IT'S WORKING!

I laughed pretty hard at that!

That #7 is out to cruise now. I like FS1's comment from Varsha. "They're trying to figure out which language to yell at each other in"

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Now the #7 is out of contention can they put Lotterer back in and have a go at the qualifying run they didn't bother doing during the week.

Last pit for the #7

Yup. Audi has blown it. Porsche could complete the rest of the race backwards and still win it, unfortunately.

Lol whos more likely to win Audi or Toyota?

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Last pit for the #7

It's impossible to do 2 hours on a tank of diesel.

So happy to see Porsche (hopefully) win. Could the reign of Audi be finally over?

 

[FordMKIVJ5]

Did it run on CH tires or what?

Far inferior tyre technology and aerodynamics mainly. Remember that these current cars are running similar (if not more) power than the group C cars.

Tyre technology has come a long, long way in the past 15 years, let alone 25 years.

Welcome to the "24h Of Usless Eurosport Commercials of Le Mans."

Geez, the ads are getting longer and longer - and they're all advertising Eurosport's upcoming schedule, so it's not like they are fulfilling sponsorship requirements. Does nobody at Eurosport realise that the best advertising for the network is "The 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans, live and uninterrupted on Eurosport"?

He never said the car would do 2 hours on a tank of diesel, he said it was the last pit stop.

The player has had no ads at all. Why are you not listening to RLM?

Peugeot won in 2009 and they didn't end Audi's reign either.

 

[Bo]

I've noticed they've half given up on showing the Shell, Rolex and NISMO breakers.

 

[C-ZETA]

Eurosport commentator just said it's becoming like an animal programme and we need Sir Richard Attenborough.
That's wrong on three levels.

Porsche 1-2-3 still possible? Lot can happen in two hours.

Not that I'm actually watching this, since we have no cable here at the hospital...

And Porsche's reign begins, and people will beg Audi to win again in the future

Just kidding.

I haven't used it but post race it will be more useful to link specific conversations, cause you know we just wrote 98 pages or so in 22 hours!

I would be surprised if it was not a 1 2 3
