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

[Skython]

alright, I'm back, what did I miss?

A big flippidy floppidy between Audi and Toyota for 3rd. (battle)

Black cloud! Please, pee now!

Well, if you know a French person, or someone who is in France. Tell them to walk outside and then talk to the sky about delightful refreshments. That might work.

God this is a tense race.

I'm hearing the #3 Audi may need one more stop than the Toyotas though.

Well the Audi's have already had far more pit stops than the Toyota's anyway.

 

[uMadson?]

gap between 3rd and 4th is a little over a second, this could be good

 

[GTracer98]

The Lietz Porsche seems to be faster than the Turner Aston...

RAIN!! Toyota, GO!!!!

 

[Downhill Dino]

well it'd be good if a clip of the GTE battle was uploaded to youtube lol

GTE battle? Oh I wish we (or at least me?) got to see those. Not that good of coverage of them this year.

 

[JGreens]

This rain could save the #97

 

[Furinkazen]

Brollies up. Uh oh.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

The rain. It's here.

 

[Endless-Wilso]

Rain any second now... ok its raining.

 

[uMadson?]

GTE battle? Oh I wish we got to see those. Not that good of coverage of them this year.

yeah

also I see some rain in one of the track's sections mmmm

Well, I just did!

Rain is falling down on sector 1..

 

[optiongamers]

Eurosport talking about GT academy.

They're talking about the gt academy

 

[Wardy 944]

GT pro battle

 

[Endless-Wilso]

The #7 seems like its used up its tires.

 

[GTracer98]

"Not a surprise!" - Dr. Ullrich

 

[JGreens]

Thank you rain. Go go #97

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

The Manthey Porsche has spun, advantage Aston Martin!

 

[GTracer98]

the manthey porsche has spun, advantage aston martin!

yay!

 

[Falcon787B]

Starting to get a bit bored of how Eurosport are trying to hype up the lead battle. The Audi is a lap and a half ahead and despite having 4 more stops is still miles faster than the 2nd place Toyota. Please, stop trying to kid ourselves - unless there's a HUGELY unlikely mechanical problem now, it won't happen.

GTE-Pro on the other hand...interesting...

 

[GTracer98]

#3 in pits!

 

[Prince.M5]

Aston is very lucky, opened up quite some gap now!

The lead Audi is still owed a mechanical failure with its electic motor, in my mind

And I'm starting to get bored by your constant complaints about Audi having unfair advantages. God dammit, just enjoy the race, we know your stand against Audi by heart now.

 

[GTracer98]

Le Mans can always provide surprises, hopefully that will help Toyota!

Well, if for example the #2 experiences a puncture in sector 1, then all that advantage will be gone and Toyota will be in the lead. It can go fast, and I bet both Audi and Toyota crew members are so nervous now.

The differences are still so small that if anything happens to either car, it will totally devastate their result.

 

[Skython]

With the current weather, I think Toyota will be able to hold a 2-3. With Toyota's wet advantage, and Audi's pit happy R18's, I think the #2 Audi can hold, but the #3 won't make the podium.

Le Mans can always provide surprises, hopefully that will help Toyota!

Or help Audi. You never know, and that's why it's a surprise.

 

[uMadson?]

well, there's still less than 2 hours left.

anything can happen.

#91 Porsche in the pits now.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

well, there's still less than 2 hours left.

anything can happen.

The biggest Le Mans cliche but that's a full grand prix distance.

 

[JGreens]

I would like more coverage of the other classes...just not the Ferrari's!

I apologise, I'm a cynical sod. I won't say anything more about Audi blatantly being faster anymore, promise

This is true. I just doubt anything will happen to the lead Audi...
