I feel for you guys in NA, And don't understand why would the stream be free for some and blocked for others, it's just stupid.

Anyway, it's over, McNish delivered pole, Audi locked the 2 front rows (e-tron - ultra - e.tron - ultra). It's past the Audis that we might be in for a good battle between the Rebellions, the Dome and the HPD cars, all very close.

Hmmm, can't watch it but it seems like the e - trons are performing better then the Ultras. Yes I know I'm being obvious.
 
Almost 2 seconds off the pace the Rebellion and the rest to the slowest Audi. Hopefully that won't be the case in the race because otherwise, we may be going for an Audi lock up. Well, that's bound to happen anyway.
 
I think Speed2 has it, but you need to pay extra.

Speed2 isn't carrying it.👎 You don't have to pay extra, your have to receive service from Time Warner, Brighthouse, Cablevision, Dish, COX, or Directv.

Well that sucks, what sucks even worse is that we have Comcast and they won't carry Speed2 at all :grumpy:

I thought I saw it on Speed2? Anyway, I have to pay extra since I have Time Warner Cable. To get Speed2 with them, I need to pay extra for their "Sports package".
 
Just heard of some interesting comments from the P1 leaders: Both Audi's engine head and Toyota expect the TS030 to beat the E-tron at Le Mans. Skip to 6:50.

Not actually what either of them said. Audi said it may have the ultimate lap time, and Toyota said that as long as they don't break down, they have a shot at winning.

Remember last time Toyota had the Ulti-lap? They had to take an extra pitstop. That is the sort of stuff that Audi seems to be really anal about.
 
Is it just me or have they changed the headlight design, looks much better to be honest.

Indeed they have. Instead of looking like a shaver, it looks a lot like a car now.

I think the whole car now looks a little bit different.
 
No Europe is the centre of the world ;) So the race starts at 2.30 PM.

That is indeed 8.30 NY time.

It's raining cats and dogs right now. I am preparing to go to the track. Just some coffee, sandwich preparing, and deciding what clothes to wear (not in a fashinable way, just for the rain).

Spa here I come!

Is my timezone math correct? Does the race start at 8:30pm Eastern tomorrow?

Are you guys saying there is a channel Speed2? I'm speaking of the website Speed2, which is supposed to be free to subscribers of those providers.

Yup. Looks more like a mash between Audi's R18 and Peugeot's 908.

Here's the comparison of it's previous monocoque and last years concept.
