Wow, the Porsche teams are stepping up this year. Hopefully they are at least somewhere near the pace.

by AMR of the Apex Tue 7 Jun 2011 - 15:23

Nice to see the livery creators sticking something on a car that sends a message to all those on forza "ok then, Try recreating THIS!!!"...

by Captain Handbag Tue 7 Jun 2011 - 15:28

For those that care:

RadioLeMans is broadcasting their usual Wednesday show "Midweek Motorsport" in about half an hours time 12noon UK (1pm CET).

For those in the states it will be repeated at something like 5 or 6pm Eastern. (Half Eleven over here)

So, half an hour from now.

I'll be listening!

by AMR of the Apex Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 11:47

I believe they've just started broadcasting :-S

by nickyf1 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 11:51

On it.

by nickyf1 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 11:53

The Number 80 Lizard and numbe 77 Felbermayr, if you look at the driver line-up in those cars, Porsche IS going for victory based on out right pace in the Pro-class, and if the lizard crew member that my family knows wasn't decieving us, in the AM class they're going to pace that car steadlily and only push it if they're about to be laped and then with 6 hours left Pumpelly and Law will be the only 2 drivers in that car pushing it for all its worth. So watch that car in particular for the team owner will get his eligable time in on the the first 3/4 of the race.

by narboza22 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 12:23

Yea, I agree about the drivers. The Pro Lizard has got a line up as strong as any car on the grid. Bergmeister, Long, and Luhr are as capable as anyone of winning the race in a good car, I'm just not so sure the 911 is up to par. It's a little long in the tooth and seemed slower than the 458 at Sebring, and I will be surprised if those cars are anywhere near the Corvette and BMW guys.

That said, I would guess that the 77 and 80 along with the Luxury 458 that Risi is running will be the best of the rest.

by nickyf1 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 12:52

Bahahaha, good one Adrian.

by narboza22 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 13:58

Post on Twitter says FP starts in about an hour. Is there a stream of that anywhere?

by AMR of the Apex Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 14:01

Audio stream at least at RadioLemans.com

by narboza22 Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 14:06

No video though? As far as I can tell, Speed is as usual not covering it or anything else I want to watch. Whose broadcasting the race in Europe? Eurosport?

by **CQR Rogue** Wed 8 Jun 2011 - 14:06

Eurosport coverage at 6.30 tonghit until late Smile

Cant wait
