If it pours down on the last lap and they're all on slicks and lap over 6 minutes do they all get disqualified? :D

They have a tendency to not actually disqualify cars which take more than 6 minutes to make the last lap. It's more to stop teams fixing up cars to the point where they can just about make a lap, stop before the finish line, and then crawl over it come 3 o'clock on Sunday.

If a marshal told the driver of the #7 to move away from the car (which it looks like is what happened), then it's still legal within the rules. Toyota, in that case, is okay.
 
Oh gosh, the rain clouds again. I don't how much more these drivers can take.
 
Peugeot was competitive they should have stayed in the sport. Domination forces others to step it up, Toyota obviously still has a way to go. Porsche should spice things up next year.

Unfortunately there aren't many organisations with the financial might of Volkswagen behind them. It should be no surprise that the next serious challenger comes from the same stable as Audi.

I hope Toyota stick around.
 
While listening to awesome music from an N64 racing game I used to own, Ridge Racer 64 (soundtrack done by Keith Arem - he should be commended for producing such a great soundtrack for this game), I'm seeing a lot of passes on the straightaway - I think they should just go ahead and give Audi the trophy the way they're running. It's kind of hard to beat them at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Am I the only one who thinks that it's better to watch races while listening to music from racing games?

(I've been keeping up with Le Mans and sportscar racing for 10 years, and I'll admit I watch these races just for Corvette in the GT class and Audi in the prototype 1 class.)

So where the reports of Toyota spending more on their program than Audi incorrect?
