Le Mans at night is so aesthetic.

I've been watching some old school dragster vids, and it's hysterical what those crazy bastards came up with to run down the track back in the day.

Oh boy GG dropping some spicy hints about Ford.

you guys think some manufacturers are ending their gte program so they can finance future hypercars?

Ford was always a 4 year thing but they are looking at hypercar, especially because they don't like the initial talks about DPI 2.0.

Ford was always 4 years and BMW gave absolutely no fucks about the GTE program like all their GT programs

Also AM hypercars should be with Red Bull backing, their GTE program should not be in any danger regardless of their choice.

Is Rebellion driving into stranded Dragon Speed a Le Mans version of Suzuka 2014?

oof

One of them got their lap canceled otherwise they would be right at the top. It's only the first session anyway, alot of teams were just perfecting their race setups instead of going for quali.

Hendrick's been resting on their laurels for awhile now.

Seriously, these guys go fast!

dr mcdreamy gonna have to drive

can someone explain why they did qualifying yesterday and today?

Because that's how LeMans works. Quali session work as practice sessions aswell.

so, is it the average time between all qualifying sessions?

No fastest time.

over all the sessions?

Yes.

cool, thank you.

Krohn is not cleared to race

>Krohn Racing is pleased to announce that its principal and driver Tracy W. Krohn has been released from the hospital in Le Mans, France, after a high impact incident on the circuit and was released to return to racing. The FIA, according to its protocol, has mandated that Mr. Krohn refrain from racing in FIA events for a period of at least 1 week until such time as the mandatory protocol has been completed. Mr. Krohn will respect the protocol and will therefore not compete in this year’s 87th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans race.

Man, whatever happened with that race? Where audis, peugeots and porsches at? Especially the former two, with toyota finally doing good this could've been the greatest competition and instead all we have is a one manufacturer team and a bunch of shitters sliding off the track.
Nice to see a Polish team, but still.

toyota-lmp1-team is basically peugeot's.

lmaoing @ this guy
The team stays in, innit. Maybe they'll finally finish it.

Yeah, yeah and last couple of seasons of porsche was just a rebranded audis. I still liked it better back then.
Also, 908 FAP wasn't a hybrid, was it?

>peugeots
Company was in the shitter, needed to become viable again.
>audis and porsche
Dieselgate.

rolling for ferrari'd
Peugeot retired because of the cost of the hybrid program (they had the car ready) audi and porsche got bored of winning and diselgate also affected them

Do we have webm of it?

jesus porsche

there were no cameras at that point

The team withdraws, though I dont follow the regulations close enough to know if they could name a third driver. Guess not

Dont think so, the nature of the crash is still unclear too

looks like something happened with the car.

I don't think they have the time, they would need him for the next session.

>Dieselgate
Sure, but having a successful hybrid (e-tron) being able to rival the one from the most experienced hybrid manufacturer (after they sorted their shit out) could be used to mitigate that at least somewhat.
>peugeot hybrid too costly
Well, you just can't argue with the money, can you. Real shame.

Oh man, that's really sad. With Tracy on, they should've had a replacement contracted from the get go (and a few spare cars too).

#3 Rebellion engine ded, trying to complete engine change by start of third quali later tonight

dead Ferrari

You can't mitigate the huge fine they got and their public image went way down the shitter. VAG also killed their WRC program out of nowhere that year, they already had a car built and testing.
Peugeot's problem went way beyond the price of the program, Peugeot was in a bad shape around that time, they only became profitable again a few year ago.
They have recently killed their WRX program because it's not going electric and the new regs might be inline with what they want so who know, they might be back.

Fuck your kikebook clickbait shit, just take a screenshot dude.

>You can't mitigate the huge fine they got
Was rather talking about the way the public would perceive things, diesel/VW bad - audi/e-tron good, but what do I know.
I still hope to see manufacturer teams back in those very few formulas I still watch. That would surely reinvigorate the sport.

what clickbait, you idiot. it's not my video and it's not my account, I don't even have one

I'm going to run now.

When is next session on?

30 minutes.

shit, thanks user

Q3 in 10 minutes. Stream live.

So comfy at night/dusk

You should watch Blancpain 1000km Paul Ricard, 6pm to midnight race.

The 24hrs of Spa is going to be great.

YOOO that's quicker than porsche in 2015.

Attached: 1531999224587.png (1280x720, 902K)

Spa is by far the worst of the big 24h races, too many stupid rules.

SNP cars still within 7 tenths of the Scions. Is there actually any chance of a race on Saturday or are they just sandbagging?

will do

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I think the toyotas have a 1 lap fuel advantage

This should be their pace. is correct though.

What is it that makes Circuit de la Sarthe such a good fucking track?

Surroundings, also night racing. The forests and the main grandstands are aesthetic as fuck.

I think it's the Ferris Wheel. Any track with a Ferris Wheel gains something.

Anybody have a stream link for Q3?

The big straights, the different types of corners, the great racing it provides, the lack of track lights during the night that provides that spectacular night racing feel. It's great.

>ferd

>youtube.com/watch?v=rDda2CtKL4M

Thanks!

How many laps can we expect them to go per stint?

>Full Course Yellow on an 8 mile track

Not sure, 11 or 12 i think.

Yeah, being the one hour stint the worst of all.

It's quals, no point in having slow zones since your lap is ditched anyway.

Exactly. The minimum pit stop time isn't great either, they should atleast add a spin to it like the N24 does.

It's not just qualifying.

What happened to the Rebellion?

Just a reminder that toyota are scum who knowingly supplied isis with shiny brand new trucks so they could go around the middle east chopping kids heads off

Its partners in crime the american military complex did the actual delivering of the trucks to isis but toyota knew were its trucks were going

The american zionist crime cartel returned the favour to toyota by going after their competition VW - Porsche/Audi by fining them billions over dieselgate when the fact is "ALL" manufacturers are cheating those regulations

We should all be hoping for toyotas cars to crash and burn during the race for their terrorist supporting ways in other parts of the world

Engine died.

why red flag? I missed it.

98 was in the gravel and the 1 Reb is stopped in the track somewhere.

A few changes from 20 years ago but it's been pretty much the same since 05-06, only a few small changes because of safety.
>how come they never change anything?
It's a legendary track. You wouldn't change the Nordschlife, same thing here.

While I was looking for all stream links, noticed that this Motul Official stream has been copyright strike. LEL

I see.

happend to me with onboard videos last year, first a few got claimed by Duke video and then taken down by ACO

Even the recent changes on the Nordshleife, removing the jump at Schwedenkreuz just before Aremberg, have been controversial as fuck even though that part of the track always was unsafe as fuck. Low grip due to jump before a high speed left turn.

That wasn't even meant to be there in the first place, road repairs are road repairs

They lost a ton of running time because of a few problems, we'll see what they can do in the race. They were the only ones that could challenge Ford in '16 so they should more than be able to be competitive.
