Forgot about that one Chas! For an open cockpit car Scott was very very lucky to have come away unscathed. I thought of the DW first simply because I was there and saw the carnage firsthand. Was near/in their garage from when they slid it off the flatbed, worked on through the night and seeing rolling it back out. Not many parts for that since lawn darts became outlawed lol. That 2nd shot was approx 5 am Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I can't be the only one that doesn't like the Delta wing, right? Every single time I see that car I look at the front end and the incredible understeer it must have.
Then you must LOVE the glorious Deltawing "family car" concept rendering Image Unavailable, Please Login

When the race starts at 15.00 CEST (live on Eurosport) Le Mans record winner Tom Kristensen (#1), André Lotterer (#2) and Marco Bonanomi (#3) will be at the wheel of the three Audi R18 e-tron quattro cars.
Don't know if this is posted yet but this is THE channel for qualified commentators: JWP6 radioshowmp3 I'm tuned it, can't wait for the Nissan (and Audi) live coverage.
I'm definitely in the minority of being a fan on the first edition DW but mainly because of the engineering innovation it had. The streetcar can't be any uglier.
Here's another hi def feed for those without coverage. 2014 Le Mans 24 Hours - Feel at the beating heart of the race with WebTV For the best commentary, IMO, obviously use radiolemans.com
