    I hope not. Soon Liberty Media will want to buy this championship then it will all become stupid media crap instead of proper racing.

    So seems like Porsche is the favorite to win this one.
    Did they already decided this with BOP ?

    Not that it really matters in a 24-hour race, but to have 11 hypercars qualify within one second, and 19 within two seconds, makes it look like pretty good parity.

    That's the aim of BoP: have the cars closer in performance.
    Some people may not agree, but that the only way to keep so many constructors and teams interested.
    I don't remember having seen so many different makes in the top category at Le Mans.

    Am I the only one that noticed F1 viewership over doubled since Liberty bought it?
    (according to Liberty, that is...)

    Doesn't anyone wonder about that?

    Here is the link to l'Equipe ( the team) the French sports website showing the race live and already the warm up.

    You have to sign up create an account and pay 0,99Euro. They will show most if not all the race.

    Start here:

    https://www.lequipe.fr/Auto-moto/

    Then click on the red icon "Voir les directs" (see the live events). Then you can choose. After a few seconds it will ask you to connect or to create an account.

    https://www.lequipe.fr/tv/videos/live/k5s40USR9HxnG5aCf1y?s=619

    Toyota #7 just hit a Lexus in warm up but hopefully just bodywork damage....maybe not, perhaps floor damage.

    They seem to be doing a lot of work on The Toyota. Totally driver fault there.

    Rain is setting in too

    Thanks Nembo/Marc!

    I am busy setting it up after I failed with Nitro TV+ (for Germany) and the official LeMans channel (don't ask...)
    Suppose your link starts only broadcasting from just before the race?

    I use VPN and positioned myself in France

    LaSarthe chooses....

    ...even if you think you pay your dues before the race, there's no guarantee.

    Glad to help!

    They are showing pre race now. Zidane the football superstar who will give the start was just driven around the track in the new Alpine concept car.

    That is a really stupid idea, there will be accidents, hopefully no bad ones.
