    Haha ya, that always surprises me when they say they are losing the transmission, then a few laps later they are back in the race. Here, they might not even lose 2 laps.

    Radio LeMans and the feeds have woken up.
    Bad news for the Oz commodore. Its clutch has gone.
    Ford GT has had an oil pump failure.

    Confusing issue #1
    The No1 porsche had a stop n go during the night it shouldn't have had.
    Its officially 3 minutes in front of where you see it on track. lol

    Class leading Aston-Marten #7 looks absolutely pristine. As if its just been washed.

    Mal Rose chucking donuts in his pink commodore haha
    Pity about the Ford GT but you couldn't let Herman Tilke get too close to this part of the track after what he did to the GP course! lol

    Phew, made it here to work just in time to load up the computer and get the last few min of the race. Too bad my internet here is bad so the video is really choppy.

    Well, in 10 hrs I can go home and watch the GP Monaco recording!

    Great race - new records set - Audi will be back next year even stronger ! !

    Great to watch the Astons come across three wide. Looks like the pits are open during the race?

    Thanks again to all you guys for great links. Watching the podium celebrations right now. Will we see Romain Dumas/Timo Bernard on the podium for Audi in a couple weeks??

    Ya thanks for the links and conversation guys. Glad to see Audi make a pretty strong showing today, and hope they have some better luck for LeMans.

    same here - I just ordered a new Morphie juice pak for the 3g iphone so hopefully I'll have more battery life there and I'll check in with you guys. On a race report on on the audi site - www.fourtitude.com the report was 235,000 spectators over the weekend - that is like Le Mans! also interesting reports about the outing for the R8 LMS.
