85th Running Of The 24 Hours Of Le Mans, 17-18 June 2017Sports Cars

[Com Fox]

This race shows the current issues with the LMP1 field. Toyota got hit by too many Blue Shells this race early on (unlike last year where it was at the end) and now Porsche drives a lonely road

To be honest, I would love to see an upset and an LMP2 actually pull off a miracle win especially if it is Jackie Chan DC Racing. I know it'll be a near impossible task but the thought of a lower class winning the biggest endurance event gets me a little excited.

I finally got a reply to my refund request and instead of the nice personalized email I got the first time I received this.



So yeah, they're hiding behind their ToS instead of doing the right thing. At least we know where their priorities lie.

I don't want to be mean, but this is what I expect from them, which is why I don't use them if you get what I'm saying.

 

[TheElbows]

Wow...even though on Facebook they said people could ask for a refund? Classy...

#92 has spun.

 

[Michelin Man]

#92 off and in the gravel.

Edit: had substantial contact with the wall, looks like a fair bit of damage at the rear.

 

[Vinylshark]

Hope they can fix the #92

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Porsche down! Doooh.

 

[Furinkazen]

Dalla Lana 2.0 there.

 

[Silent Drifter]

#50 Corvette off at Mulsanne

Gutted about #92. It has progressed so nicely until now.

 

[Michelin Man]

Dalla Lana 2.0 there.

Whenever I hear or see Paul Dalla Lana's name pop, I instantly hear/see and think of the Dalai Lama .

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Aww, the Vettes haven't been lucky this race.

yeah no kidding

This is basically 2010 Le Mans all over again.

Makes me glad I'm not a Toyota fan, I'd be very salty if I was.

 

[IforceV8]

Yeah about this

 

[FutureF1]

Honestly the only thing that would make me happy with this race now is if the #1 Porsche cocks out and it's an LMP2 overall podium...

Here we go again with the great sportsmanship

Man that 50 Vette does look sweet under its pit lights.

Barring the #2 doesn't have any further issues they should be able to pass all the LMP2's so they would also need to have issues for that to happen.

Well, being a Toyota fan is a tough, roller coaster ride of emotions, and one of great hope and patience, that's for sure.

Lol We've seen Porsche win this thing for the past 2 years. Good for them having built great cars but as they were my 3rd favourite team, it's getting kinda old haha

I wouldn't say it would make me happy, but it's definitely one of the few remaining spectacles to anticipate.

 

[Organ-Donor]

I actually love the GT and really the only thing I dislike about the car is the terrible livery.

Chip on the other hand is terrible. He knows how to win, but doesn't know how to do it with class like most other highly successful teams. How he manages to attract major corporations and drivers will forever baffle me.

I'm not a Ford fan at all but LOVE the '05-06 and current Ford GT. Only complaint on the new one is (in my opinion) sound, should have used the glorious sounding GT350 powerplant. I get why they used the turbo V6 though. I would have had no problems rooting for the GT second to the Vettes of course, until Ganassi and all the ********, and the whole zero production cars produced yet still raced last year. I definitely root against them.

And yeah the car could look great with another livery.

Off topic, but why do you have Willy Wonka as your old one and in front of a mushroom cloud.

Also, Aston Martin has been doing quite well throughout the race so far.

Just sucks we have to wait another full year to have our dreams crushed again, lol.

Salt isn't the right word for it, the things that are happening are other worldly. It's just unbelievable. I still consider myself a displaced Audi fan, but even last year I would have rather traded in Audi's perfect podium streak than see Toyota go through what they did. It's just so hard to watch, just got send your heart out to them.

You must have loved the Audi era.
