90th Anniversary Running Of The Le Mans 24 Hours, 22-23 June 2013.

[Shinshiki]

Track drying, Toyota only about a second behind Audi. Dropping into the 3:30s.

It seems Toyota might have found some pace. I guess the headlights are helping.

 

[Wardy 944]

I can't see them finding an extra 10 seconds to beat yesterdays times.

 

[Hun200kmh]

Buemi out, Sarrazin in (the #8).

 

[SagarisGTB]

I can't see them finding an extra 10 seconds to beat yesterdays times.

Maybe not, but the #8 is only 2 seconds off their time from yesterday and 2.5 away from jumping the #12 Rebellion.

 

[Hun200kmh]

Toyota 1-2 now

 

[Dean]

According to the live timing on the FIA WEC site, there's a 2.1-2.3 km/h difference between the Toyotas and the Audis, in average speed...

Edit: now -1.2 km/h .

They do have an hour and twenty to go...
The track will dry up plenty in that time despite the fact that it's nearly night out there.

 

[Wardy 944]

Maybe not, but the #8 is only 2 seconds off their time from yesterday and 2.5 away from jumping the #12 Rebellion.

They're still on intermediates, I thought they were on slicks already

10 seconds extra on slicks is probably do-able.

 

[Com Fox]

Typical Audi, not good at qualifying or top speed but they manage to win at the race .

 

[Dean]

3:28.042 to Audi !

And an Aston out...

 

[Furinkazen]

AM class Aston has crashed.

 

[Furinkazen]

Close call for a prototype with the Alpine?

 

[SagarisGTB]

AM class Aston has crashed.

Thankfully it was the less-competitive #96, and not the leading #95.

 

[Furinkazen]

 

[Com Fox]

Where is Strakka LMP?

 

[Dean]

A flat tyre, is the reason for the yellow flag.

 

[Wardy 944]

Where is Strakka LMP?

19th overall

 

[Furinkazen]

Class leading Larbre Vette with puncture. All kicking off now.

Krohn Ferrari expected to roll out of the garage around 11:00 p.m. local time.

 

[Yukon]

That's in 5 minutes! If that's true then they've done a great job getting the car ready in time. Thing is, it's not the same car that went through scrutineering, so will that affect them at all?

Well, its going to have an unpainted black roof from what I here

 

[Wardy 944]

Do all 3 drivers still have to do their 5 laps?



#76 Matmut RED FLAG

#76 Matmut RED FLAG

Really?! No!!! I saw Matmut go slow a minute ago.

Yep, off at first chicane, debris on track.

 

[Dean]

Red flag... with one hour to go... Looks like it's parts on the track, but those can be moved fast, along with water and oil, according to the Danish EuroSport commentators.

 

[Furinkazen]

Rear wheel went flying off.

 

[Wardy 944]

The story of qualifying.

 

[Dean]

"3 minutes", says Race Director.

 

[Tired Tyres]

A storm is on its way. If you need to go fast, do it soon.

 

[gogatrs]

Watching this for livetiming, but some stuff seems to be conflicting with what I hear on RLM?

Is it true that top 3 in GTEPro are separated by less than a tenth?

 

[Dean]

GREEN FLAG: We're off again.

 

[Yukon]

A storm is on its way. If you need to go fast, do it soon.

It's the calm before the storm, and I'm not talking about the weather.
