LeMans This Weekend

FWIW Motortend has it flag to flag on TV- Channel 281 on DirecTV-

Cheers

 

That was Stroll??? I stepped away and saw the car in the wall but volume off so SO can sleep-

 

Nice- I bit- thought his daddy bought him a seat at LeMans as well - Good one

 

SG running 3/4 in Hypercar- of course there are only 5 cars But they are running 3rd overall so a possible podium would be badass!

Still cool- That guy is one of my hero's

 

I guess you missed F1 qual last night

I did unfortunately- Makes sense now- Funny

Man I wish Lawrence Stroll would invest in Chick-Fil-A so Lance could be pickle boy instead of wasting an F1 seat-

 

Corvette gets taken out.

I went in 2018 and it was definitely worth it. A lot of fun.

I went a few years ago and cannot wait to get back, next year God willing. I stayed in the camp ground with the Porsche Club of Great Britain on the Porsche Curves. They have a bus that will take you to Arnage around midnight and brings you back to Porsche curves at 2:00am or so. Here's a little secret, if you have a Porsche you can take your registration and get entry plus guest into the Porsche building on the Raccordament Chicane and you can watch the start or finish, enjoy sausages and free beer.

Great live music near the Dunlop Bridge, Grand Marnier crêpes at 3am. It's an absolute must once in a lifetime.

 

why have the 488's been so far off pace in GTE AM? BoP or just teams/driver lineups?

 

Congratulations to James for his first podium

 

+ 709

 

A **** weekend for Ferrari but alas, at least they could finish this race.

 

I’m looking forward to Road America. I guarantee Ferrari will not lose.

 

No podium coverage for US viewers of Motor Trend.

 

Great info here!!
Sounds like some insider information to keep in mind.
I don't have a Porsche so I can't benefit from it but my family is from Germany.... wonder if that would work
Or maybe a good angle to convince the wife why we need to add another car to the stable....

Best wishes,
GG

What number did this blue ferrari (488?) wear at LeMans in 2022. This was the livery at Daytona

I don't think the team ran at Le Mans this year, although I did see Cetilar sponsorship on the AF Corse 488s

 

Le Mans 2022 wasn't a memorable race. It was boring to watch, to be honest.
Thanks to good management, Toyota dominated the only 5 cars in the top category, so victory was very predictable for them. Private Glickenhaus enjoyed a podium finish in what is a David v. Goliath fight.

In the LMP2 category, they behaved like unruly school kids. Too much disparity between driving skills and experience, IMO.

In LMGTE Pro, Corvette was the big loser. One car was sidelined with suspension problems after an off, the other one was brutally eliminated at high speed by an LMP2 driver. Corvette was leading the GTE Pro category at one point. Porsche won the category, but many think that Ferrari was screwed by a last-minute BoP change that made it impossible to compete at the front.

The single Aston Martin won the LMGTE Am, against 11 Ferraris at the start !

Roll on 2023, with the mix LMH/LMhP with Cadillac, Porsche, Ferrari, Toyota, Glickenhaus, Alpine, plus Lamborghini and Audi one year later?

 

I understand he sued because he didn’t like the rules.
