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

[ZoidFile]

Is there a stream that's not forbidden in germany?

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

The #46 Thiriet Oreca has some front right damage and has just gained a place on the G-Drive Ligier, a little contact perhaps.

 

[Scuderia Paul]

You need to by the WEC stream @Savolainen83.

 

[GTPorsche]

🤬 already second commercial break Eurosport? Seriously?!

Can't be worse than Fox. They typically go to commercial every 5 minutes.

Morning, Gentleman. Good news is that I got to see the start on the Fox sports Go App, bad news is it was from the corvette onboard because the Fox broadcast still hasn't started :rollseyes:

I swear coverage of this race has gotten so stupidly complicated, its beyond reason. I don't even understand why Fox still has the rights when they clearly don't care.

They are using the race to try and force cable companies to carry FS2 since so few do. Without it you don't get FoxGo so you end up with about 7 hours of coverage. Screw them, and cable, I bought the stream...24+ hours and no commercials.

 

[Wiegert]

I just found out about the not ad-free bit I guess I'll do what everyone else is and watch on Eurosport.

Well at least their ads don't clash with those on Eurosport.

Aaaaaand that sounds like Eurosport right now. Bleh.

Ah, so no stream fo me then, gotta rely on eorosport to deliver. Stupid commercials...

 

[sk8er913]

So did anyone else see the 458 almost wreck one of the LMP1 Audi? Lol. Didn't take much time for a close call.

 

[GTPorsche]

I don't even like the fact that Fox has no TV coverage for 7 hours of the race.

 

[Boffin]

I am furious about the lack of streaming options for Australia. I would like to pay to view the race through the cruddy little phone app but its simply not working for me. Is anyone else having problems with it? At the loading page, it reckons I don't have an internet connection on my phone...

 

[Savolainen83]

Audi #9 made its first pitstop.

 

[Diehardracer]

TDS takes second in LMP2 with KCMG 1st and Sam Bird's G-Drive 3rd....now in the lead!

 

[Furinkazen]

Short first stints in P1.

 

[Ninners]

Audi & Porsche best laps: 3:20s

Toyotas best lap times: 3:23 and 3:24

Hmmm.

 

[Bo]

Here are some ByKolles autograph cards I knocked up, complete with Andy Blackmore's seal of approval. Great if you can't make it to the track to pick a real one up.

Nismo TV and Porsche are streaming it, that's how I'm watching it right now.

 

[MustangManiac]

Did I hear right, they are talking about 5 stints on tires?

 

[Furinkazen]

#29 adventurous today.

 

[GTPorsche]

And cars are nearly crashing in the pits...

 

[Downhill Dino]

Audi & Porsche best laps: 3:20s

Toyotas best lap times: 3:23 and 3:24

Hmmm.

I guess Toyota didn't make many updates like Audi and Porsche did. I don't have much confidence in them getting anywhere, so I guess they'll have to rely on the TS050 next year.

 

[Northstar]

I'm loving all the on-board options on the WEC stream.

Right now, this is the post of the day for me, haha. Great one. But somehow, the ByKolles is actually behind both Rebellions, shockingly enough, although they still have a long way before they can actually fight with them...

Had the same problem and also had issues with the WEC website. The website finally allowed me to sign up, pay and start streaming about 10 minutes ago but the app is still being weird.

 

[Furinkazen]

Nooo! Electrical issues.

 

[05XR8]

#21 GT-R in12th place at the first pit stops.

 

[MustangManiac]

So Toyota is going 3 more laps on a stint, that's not quite going to make up that 30 second gap is it?


Wish timing and scoring kept track of what stop each car was on, this is going to get confusing in 24 hours!

 

[sk8er913]

Im on commercial break number 3 or 4... on fox.

Not lapping 15 seconds slower than the Porsche and Audi.

 

[NW48]

So, it's been 40mins and still no ad-break on Fox Sports AU. Love this coverage. Fox Sports, in Australia, is taking motorsport coverage seriously.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

I think it's worse than that, the Porsche and Audi will run longer stints than that, the Toyota is probably already closer to it's stint-length limit.
