Considering Strakka's greatest successes have been in P2, it's a good move.

Yeah, running an amateur like Nick Leventis is a pretty big handicap in LMP1, they are better suited to LMP2. It actually worked out quite well with Strakka and OAK swapping prototype classes this winter.

But I still want to see a Dome P1 at some point down the road.

We are green for the 6hrs Of Bahrain - is the stream lagging for anyone other than me?

My final race of the year for all the series I can follow. Hoping for a Toyota win just to be different. Though I know Audi have won it championship wise, and even though I support Audi it'd be nice to see Toyota cap it off with a victory.

 

[Furinkazen]

Lotus. You are idiots. Both cars out within 15 minutes and a Manthey Porsche badly damaged.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Well that was an exciting first couple of laps!

Stream is working fine for me @Furinkazen

Wow, just wow.

Better now as well 👍

Wow, just wow.

Ok i'll say Kodewa thing. Not a Lotus.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Well that Ferrari/Porsche battle in GT-Am was nice.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Porsche V Aston now! I love the WEC

that #32 lotus needs to make it's mind up whether it's carrying on or not

 

[Bo]

Oh god, Lotus has stopped again. Good race though.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Corvette spins...

 

[R0ssingt0n]

As much as I love P1/P2 cars you really can't beat decent GT racing.

Lotus is moving again! 10/10 for dedication

It's safe to say Mr Freitas isn't best pleased with #32's driver haha

 

[Furinkazen]

Lotus, give them some credit I suppose for trying, race control not happy. Also Audi fail overtake.

 

[Bo]

How many times does he want to get going? And yes that was terrible judgement on Treluyer's part.
EDIT - Only a warning for the number 1 car. I think the FIA are pretty biased towards Audi.

 

[Ninners]

I'm surprised that it's only a black/white flag for that.

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Toyota #7 lost the lead avoiding the Corvette, no damage though

 

[Third Reign]

Audi's are driving very risky. That black and white should have been upgraded to a drive through to set a standard...

 

[R0ssingt0n]

NOOOO Poor Rebellion

 

[Ninners]

Nice barbecue though.

 

[Furinkazen]

RIP Rebellion Lola-Toyota.

 

[Ninners]

Audi's are dropping back quite alot now, seems like a Toyota 1-2 as it stands.

 

[Bo]

NO!!!!!! TOYOTA #7 IS DOWN!!!!!!

 

[Furinkazen]

Wurz Toyota just died in the pits.

 

[Ninners]

Oh no.

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Well that was a bit sudden D:

seems to have puked some fluid up on the track...

 

[Bo]

Word from Alex is he smelt oil and then power went.

 

[Furinkazen]

Bahrain looks good at night.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Bahrain looks good at night.

Yeah, thus there is hope for F1 races to be better at night time then day time races hopefully.

Also I'm starting to have feed issues like you were earlier too so that's not fun

 

[R0ssingt0n]

Must be a global thing, I've had a few issues recently too

 

[Ninners]

Same issues for me, I believe it's connected to Bahrain since I don't have these issues normally.
