Me too, but I'm at work Thankfully Sky remote record!

If it wasn't for my wedding I'd be going to Le Mans like I normally do. I suggested it for the stag do, but got no response

I'm wanting to get to Petit or Sebring in the coming years.

Good luck to the Drayson Lola!

i would open that site up, but I think I'd get slapped if I change proxy rules for my own gain... Could do it and then change it back when I go home later. Mmmm

Do it!

Yeah I'm supporting Drayson too, that and Flying Lizards. Lizards should have their live radio feed going I hope.

Missing Le Mans myself this year. I'm hoping to get to the 24hrs of the Nurburgring though.

Drayson in LMP1
The Porsche Spyder in LMP2
GT2 it'll be BMW or Scott Speed's F430

However the Corvettes are awesome and have you seen the you tube from last years Laguna Seca?

Yeah, not good, but I wasn't suprised Bergmeister snapped, there were some pretty rude moves from Magnussen towards the end of that race. If it isn't Ferraris it's Corvettes hitting him.

The Corvettes will be great if the drivers don't get too hot headed though.

Damn, now I'm looking to see which betting sites are covering the race

Yup a bit like the door bashing a couple of years ago as he got bumped final corner at Sebring. Can't remember if that was a Risi Ferrari or a White Lightning Ferrari (they had awesome paint jobs) and a shame they went

I thought Magnussen kept it bretty clean until that point. It pisses all over F1 from an entertainment value.

Too right about entertainment value.

It could be my crappy memory but I thought the Corvette was hitting the Porsche a few times under brakes trying to push it wide in the corners. A good excuse for me to rewatch on youtube.


Speaking of everyone hitting each other, Nascar’s at Bristol this Sunday evening on sky channel 190 (I think).


Motors coverage is starting

I'm still at work as they haven't got the power back on. Data Centre is still running off the generator.

All becuase the it director doesn't trust the generator. If the generator stops it'll be shutdown scripts!
