"Check this out on the TV"

The guy lived it mate. He doesn't need to re-live it on the television screen.

"Yeah remember that horrific impact from a few minutes ago? If you could just stand here and relive it twice that'd be grand". Odd move.

Suckiest situation for him though, making room for his teammate who went to deep and a big slap and retirement is how he's rewarded.

Look like that Safety car was unfortunately fortunate for the NSX.

That white GT-R has been a rolling chicane all weekend long.

And that's the BMW's hopes gone.

 

[MaxAttack]

Emergency cosmetic surgery for the Walkenhorst BMW. Three mechanics using brute force tactics with the race tape. Seems the front likes to fall apart?

 

[Spacegoat]

What move from the GT-R. Three wide into the first corner. Wowsers.

 

[-Fred-]

That's a bit naughty from Whincup...

#911 Porsche with a flat tire, that's gonna cost them some time.

Hard to see them being able to get back on the lead lap.

 

[Drex124]

Hard to see them being able to get back on the lead lap.

Especially after getting a penalty over top of that.

Looks like the #222 Audi is eating it's right rear tires, it's smoking up a storm.

 

[LumpiestFish]

Had a bigger night than expected and slept right through my 5:45 alarm

 

[Roger the Horse]

Is that Audi actually behind a barrier because it looks like it's just ditched by the side of the track?

 

[05XR8]

Long long way to go, but I think a Bentley is leading.

 

[twitcher]

Just got home from work and fired up the stream....anyone able to give a brief rundown of what’s happened in the first half of the race? Who are the front runners so far?

 

[LumpiestFish]

Hopefully the dust storm doesn’t effect the race too majorly.

 

[twitcher]

Just saw the mid-race highlights...holy crap was Tander’s crash a massive one. The Mountain seems to be chewing up cars at an elevated level this year. Glad he was ok.

 

[Granadier]

15s penalty for kicking the bag out of the Aston's grill. What a crock

 

[Spacegoat]

Bit of rain on the windscreen of the #911?

Bit of rain on the windscreen of the #911?

I don't think so. I remember seeing those spots during the shootout yesterday. I think just air bubbles in the tear off sheets.

 

[05XR8]

M6 withdrawn. That sucks.

15s penalty for kicking the bag out of the Aston's grill. What a crock

The rules are pretty clear that the lollipop holder can't do anything to the car. A similar thing happened last year with a similar result.

 

[Spacegoat]

No, not the Lambo. Bloody friggin hell.

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Did the #60 McLaren serve their penalty?

 

[Jezza819]

Not a good debut for the NSX.

 

[05XR8]

Not a good debut for the NSX.

Nope. However, glad they brought it over.

Did the #60 McLaren serve their penalty?

Edit: Nope got confused

 

[CodeRedR51]

Did the #60 McLaren serve their penalty?

Nope

 

[Spacegoat]

Been away from the TV for a little bit. Is the #911 legit back on the lead lap or do they need to pit soon?

They are back on the lead lap. At the time of the last Safety Car, they were 11 laps into their stint.

 

[Drex124]

Another safety car, #8 Bentley facing the wrong way after spinning with a blown tire.

 

[Northstar]

#8 has crashed, which is a shame considering they made an admirable comeback from their earlier crash.
