I love that race director.

We have a safety car due to gravel on track left by car 66

 

[catamount39]

#68 in the garage.

Do I go to bed now or stay up all night to watch the coverage?

Are you guys staying up or taking a break?

Sleep is for the weak.

 

[Savolainen83]

Can anyone get screencaps of that M2 in action?

I usually try taking a few short naps over the course of the race, I've already taken 1.

"We have a Safety Car because of Olivier Pla who lives at [address] and his phone number [Pla's phone number]." - Eduardo Freitas. Probably.

I've always loved Freitas' subtle smug French sarcasm.

 

[Dennisch]

One M2 to rule them all!

3!

LM 24 viewing is life, you don't rest until it does!!









Probably a couple hours but don't tell the other guys

So who's actually leading each class apart from LMP1 I know is Toyota still but I can't watch the race I watched the first 6 hours then it got blocked have I missed anything major ?

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Crashes and barrier repair, safety zones. Littering on the track, safety car.

 

[PzR Slim]

Toyota benefited from the safety car. Lead increased.

 

[Silent Drifter]

Looks like Porsche is behind Safety Car C, making Toyota's lead greater. My question is, would this be a good time to change pads/rotors?

 

[comu]

 

[Michelin Man]

Both the #66, #68 at least, are having their brakes changed. Not sure about the #67 and #69

 

[Grayfox]

Toyota benefited from the safety car. Lead increased.

They might send Oliver Pia a fruit basket as a thank you.

 

[Michael88]

Olivier Pia atm

Actual picture of the La Sarthe after Pia's accident:

Thanks #66, proving why many hate Le Mans SCs

I think a bag of kitty litter would be more fitting...

Just finished a 1,5 liter bottle of Pepsi and have an energy drink reserved for tomorrow so, yeah, sleep is for the weak.

 

[Vinylshark]

Trouble for the #1 Porsche.

 

[Silent Drifter]

#1 Porsche has spun on pit entry

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

Did the #1 just try to pull a Millner?

 

[Furinkazen]

Still alive here!

Chocolate Buttons, Pringles, 2x Pepsi cans, Snickers, and Banana should keep me going for a while.

Also errr wtf Jani?

 

[Michelin Man]

#1 Porsche spun coming onto the Bugatti circuit.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Did the #1 just try to pull a Milner?

Milner somewhat had an excuse, Jani didn't

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

Go home Jarni! U R DRUNK!

 

[Savolainen83]

It would be quite nice if the Safety cars had strobes on their reverse lights like the pick-up truck with the blue lightbar has.
