Will anyone be watching le mans coverage this year? Anyone see any of the practice and quali?

Audi E-Tron sounds epic!

I saw a little bit of it (I know a few guys working on the TV coverage) and I thought the E Tron really does look like something from the movie Tron. My favourite is the Batmobile though. It is mental I want one. Unfortunately Eurosport aren't covering the Qualifying stuff live. I'm not watching the football so I need somthing else to watch

Google Le Mans streaming and you'll be able to watch it all live when the race starts. Many are free sites, likewise for F1 coverage.

Watching on TV, no. I'm here in a campsite next to the circuit. Has showers, loos, wifi, bar, breakfasts and everything. So different from a few years ago. Looking forward to the race today.

Nasty smash in the Group C race this morning, in truly terrible weather.

Everyone OK, but there are a couple of badly bruised wallets kicking about right now.

It is awful and shouldn't be on track in the way of the proper racing cars..

But then you'd have to eliminate all the GTEs too...

No, they comply with the rules.. The delta wing is only allowed due to French roots.

But it's in 30th place...not too shabby.

The ACO have a very long-established facility to allow non-rules cars to participate, if not compete.

For example, what about this little fellow (1963)?

I am not disputing that or objecting to it. I just don't like the delta wing.

That's fine, but you said it had no place there because it didn't comply with the rules...

Anyway - look - I'm not here to kick off an argument - particularly as we got on so well on Thursday.

Let's just get back to admiring the lovely Justine, and perhaps watching a bit of racing!
