    wasn't the same corner. the first crash happened in the same corner as the crash yesterday, the second in a different corner.

    I wish the SC wouldn't have been deployed though. Wouldn't have jeopardized an Audi win, but would have made things a little more interesting behind.

    though it would be better if the porsche reliability allowed them to battle with Ferrari, more exciting, as porsche had/has similar pace

    Good job Audi, congrats on a good race. Maybe next year someone will be able to challenge them for the overall win. Nonetheless, what they've done over the past decade or so is pretty impressive.

    Roll on 2014 and the new engine formula! Not to mention Porsche's return to LMP1. Maybe Ferrari will surprise us and say they're coming back in a few more years, too. Would love a new generation of Porsche vs. Ferrari Wars. Revive the 512M!
