    Ford is 40 seconds up on on Ferrari at the moment!
    Both are 40 laps down on Toyota leading overall.

    Second place Porsche 919 is 57 seconds down on the Toyota.

    Live streaming in-car with the #69 GT on https://www.foxsportsgo.com/
    Just need to sign in with your cable provider's info.

    I've got it open in another window right now. Damn that GT is fast with lightning fast shifts, but doesn't sound nearly as nice as a GT40 :(

    Full coverage starts at 6AM.

    WTF, Fox Sports is supposed to have the race until the end but at 7:00 AM here on the east coast of US, they switched to golf?

    This is still anyone's race, an hour and a half to go with seconds between the leaders.

    What the hell, seems I am also stuck with golf ??????
    Guess I will blame Comcast and Fox.
    Dismal coverage yesterday and the same today, wondering if the US GOVT is in charge of tv coverage.
    At least I can still watch F1

    Awesome in-car footage from #69 Ford GT. Cool that the prototypes don't look that much faster through the curves, but streak ahead after the exit.

    Would be interesting to know the difference in top speed, must be vast with 30 seconds faster lap times.

    I don't think there's that much difference in the top speeds, it's the way they accelerate up to maximum speed that makes the difference.

    I don't think I get FS2, I only pay Comcast a paltry $217 a month ;)

    That's genuinely heartbreaking, feel so sorry for Toyota.

    I thought it was odd he was coming to a full stop to pick up the third place Toy for the finish photo. Crushing. Awful call on the Risi car.
