I'd really like to watch this. Is the race running yet? How many hours until it starts?

Aston on pole? Wow, didn't expect that. Watching the live stream right now on the ALMS website, any link to an HD stream would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Wardy 944]

looking forward to this

is just me or is feed smoother in full screen?

Fantastic GT battle

 

[Bram Turismo]

GT battles until the last lap after 2hr, 6hr, 12hr, and 24hr races. The holy grail of motorsport. This will be a fantastic race! 👍

*EDIT* The Lotus broke down. What a surprise...

 

[Mac K]

Poor Lotus, not very competitive, and now this.. Work in progress as they say, hope they get it all worked out. At least it sounds good

 

[Wardy 944]

I'm cheering on the Flying lizards but boy does that Aston look good.

Lizard fan here as well! I even got two T-shirts of them

They haven't had the pace to really challenge the front runners since last year, but I hope they'll put up a better fight today 👍

 

[spooble]

I don't like P cars in the gravel. :/

 

[Mac K]

I like the Lizards as well, but Corvette Racing is my favourite team. Go Corvette!

Same here. I'm also hoping the Falken car can put in a solid result.

Who do you guys think is at fault for the incident between the Ferrari and BMW at the corkscrew?

 

[Patrick]

Radiolemans.com is playing audio of the 6 Hours of Spa.

 

[Wardy 944]

Ferrari of course. It was very slight contact, but it did cause the BMW to go around.

I found a interview with Peugeots refugee driver, who now drives for Level 5 motorsports team. What do you guys think about this guy?

I'm guessing you like him a lot right?

 

[Tower Turn 13]

How about Patrick Dempsey punting people?

Dyson needs a new car, and P1 needs some more competition. I don't even get why those HPDs driven by the Pug guys are even P2 cars. Just make em a little more powerful and let them race with Muscle Milk, then slow down Dyson a little and make his team P2. The P2 HPDs are already so damn fast.

 

[gtone339]

I respect the French driver, yes.

I think you mean Joe Foster. I like Dempsey, he loves racing and that interview showed it, that was great. Love the Shelby sticker on the inside of his car.

Ooops. Okay, well then how about Dempsey punting tires on the corkscrew then. Lol.

 

[Bram Turismo]

That was a reckless move by Montagny.

I think he's rubbish.

both cars wrecked

 

[Bram Turismo]

Why is that guy yelling about a C2 Corvette no one cares about111!!!11! [/CAPS]

 

[Wardy 944]

on a positive note this yellow really bunches up the GT pack

 

[Wardy 944]

Lizards into the lead of GT 👍

You mean mr turn into others?

Don't like him.

 

[Furinkazen]

Slow stop for Corvette. Got to admit the ALMS site coverage with all the onboards is brilliant.

Say what? What happened to Montagny? I stepped out and didn't see.
