turn off audio, turn on RLM

nice one thanks mate!

ACO ''closely watching'' Peugeots...

problem for the drayson car.

Have never really got into Le Mans before but this year i think i just might!


They didnt cover the GT2's as much as i'd have liked as thats what im most into.

As a VAG-head im slightly dissapointed by the slowness of the Audis but those Pug's Looked amazing in the dark.

BMW for the GT2 win! (especially that sexy sexy art car! )

Audi really do have to pull something special out of the bag or its a fore gone conclusion already come on Audi this is very uncharacteristic!

.... and sadenning

If Audi will do everything they possibly can to win this race, don't worry guys.

Can they completely redesign and rebuild the car in a night? No? Didnt think so....

Sweet Hybrid systems etc Sense Porsche LMP1 return soon

oh well no more gt1 but GT endurance sounds intresting (hope fully add some more cars elgibilty etc)

Any 1 found any info to performance balancing petrol and diesel engines?

they're working on race set up, they've won before when they were by far not the fastest car. In fact they've done it more than once.

RIGHT it has rained at Le Mans Audi are on pace with the Peugeot in the wetter conditions so, Audi have too much aero for Le Mans i think that is possibly the reason why they're struggling!

summary of the rules that Matt posted.

2011 Intercontinental Cup will include Le Mans as a point scoring race, and also sees the return of the Fuji 1000km.

and 95% of the time what does it always do during the race at LeMans? It rains and rains HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Audi know how to win it just because they're not quick in the dry doesn't mean they'll lose the race, just look at 2008, they were considerably slow, but once it rained who was fastest? AUDI!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tom's basically said the set up needed work. Looks like the track was pretty slippery early on in the session. Lots of spins heading onto the Mulsanne.

If anyones seen the documentary "Truth in 24", remember "It always rains at Le Mans" Go audi

I think the Pugs have a much bigger advantage than Audi had anticipated this year, Dr Ullrich looks a confused man a bit too often in 2010.
