woah

 

[Wardy 944]

#67 Matmut with a puncture

 

[JGreens]

Everyday I'm Shufflin...for the Porsche

 

[Furinkazen]

Am Class leader, IMSA car with puncture.

Comu? Why by the way.

 

[Panoz]

Makes sense, corvettes do have some french heritage in it after all. Is the french team essentially a satellite team for Corvette Racing? Which corvettes are in which class?

Corvette Racing is in the GT-Pro class and Larbre is running the GT-Am class.
Larbre also got 2 American Rolex Series drivers with the team for Le Mans.

 

[Bram Turismo]

Is it just me or is Dr. Ullrich the most expressive german in the business?

#8 in the pits. Toyota really have to re-think their strategy if they want to stay competitive.

I don't think there's anything to rethink. They just haven't done their homework as good as Audi has. If they can at least finish the full 24 hours this year, I'll be happy. I kind of expected ever since Silverstone for Audi to run away with this race.

And TV2 is taking a 30 minute break from Le Mans. Because god forbide they skip on showing other news a single day...

 

[comu]

that puncture

 

[ICEYOU]

Corvette Racing is in the GT-Pro class and Larbre is running the GT-Am class.

What is the difference between the two classes? Which series do the larbre usually run in? The ELMS?

 

[Prince.M5]

He's lucky to have a puncture almost at the end of the lap, much closer to the pit.. It's reaaally scary to see the car going all over the place!

 

[CarBastard]

And TV2 is taking a 30 minute break from Le Mans. Because god forbide they skip on showing other news a single day...

Could be worse. Much worse.

Fox Sports 3 is taking a 3 hour break from Le Mans to show stupid Nascar Nationwide.

 

[JGreens]

Cripes the #71 Ferrari been in the wars...

 

[Furinkazen]

Rebellion car looks beautiful.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Wow, both Corvettes almost taken out of the race in one turn! Yeah, I'm 12 minutes behind live.

 

[GTracer98]

Cripes the #71 Ferrari been in the wars...

LoL

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

What is the difference between the two classes? Which series do the larbre usually run in? The ELMS?

Yes I believe the ELMS is what they usually take part in. The difference is mainly experience and the cars used in the GTE-Am are a year older, the GTE-Pro cars are 2013 spec.

 

[CarBastard]

What is the difference between the two classes? Which series do the larbre usually run in? The ELMS?

As far as I know, the cars are basically the same but the difference is that GT-Am teams can only have one "pro" driver and must have two amateur, gentleman drivers.

 

[Tired Tyres]

What is the difference between the two classes? Which series do the larbre usually run in? The ELMS?

GT-E Pro is the same as ALMS GTE. GT-E Am is for at least one year old cars and can have only one Gold or Platinum driver in the car.

Leader is losing chunks of time to all the other cars in the top five. #LM24

 

[R5]

Rebellion car looks beautiful.

Yes. It is.

Alpine aren't doing too bad, especially for a first time team

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

where the hell is that Viper getting the speed from? It must be filled with rage and sorrow for the fallen Viper

Traffic? Had about three cars behind him...
edit: after he'd passed them, obviously

 

[Panoz]

Larbre's 2 Corvettes are a year old compared to the factory team. Also the drivers are mostly amateur.

Tree'd

Rain power!!

They run the WEC. Agree on the Rebellion car too, it looks great.

 

[Rossell2]

So what cars have gone out then? I get the impression we've lost a Viper and Aston...

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

HOLY CRAP the driver in the Aston Martin died...

 

[Bram Turismo]

The Lotus LMP2 looks beautiful here at Le Mans. It reminds me of the black Loctite Mclaren F1 from Le Mans '98 or '97. I didn't think it lokoed all that great at Silverstone, but right here I think it looks fantastic!

 

[CinnamonOD]

There are reports that Simonsen, the Aston Martin driver died for that crash
