Le Mans thread
« on: June 12, 2010, 02:54:16 pm »
Anyone else made themselves comfortable for the weekend? Sod the football - I watched the Rugby this morning. That's my England game for the day.

Sad news - Team Mansell are out already!  :sad1:

Jonny's team are currently 19th overall.

It's not looking good for Audi either.
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

Mile-muncher ordered: MkVI 1.6 TDi BlueMotion Match DSG with leather, winter pack, luxury pack, fogs, climate control, Dynaudio pack, RCD510 with DAB & MDI, flat tyre indicator

One Peugeot down... Three more to go.

Driver change at Drayson too - Jonny was in 20th when he came in.

RSR Jag is out

Spyker bins it... gets back on the track at Porsche curves and promptly takes out a prototype class cars! Bit harsh as it was game over for the LMP car. Spyker is a GT class car, built a big stronger and is still running, albeit in the pits for repairs.

LMP car made it to the pits

all of the peugeots have retired  :grin:

Still they were a hell of alot quicker per lap than the audis, but maybe its because audi have experience on preserving their engines and the frenchies obviously dont and the engine let go  :signLOL:
