[LM24 Race] 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans

[joeb]

It is finally race week for the 84th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. If you are reading this forum then you already know what kind of epic battle we will have at the sharp end of the field between Audi, Toyota, and Porsche. The factory teams haven't shown impecable reliability so far this season, but is that enough for Rebellion or ByKolles to reach the podium? This is the best chance they will have had in years with only 2 cars entered from each factory.

LMP2 features 23 cars and many of them have a chance at victory. Nissan will be powering 20 of those cars and (a different) 20 will run Dunlops with the remaining cars on Michelins. The Garage 56 Entry will also be a modified LMP2.

The GT classes will be mega with Porsche, Ferrari, Corvette, Aston Martin and newcomer Ford joining the party. It is the 50th anniversary of Fords first Le Mans win. I bet they would like to make that with another win! BOP has been a constant source of discussion already this year with numerous tweaks being made. However, the race will likely be messy and play out in a way the changes in BOP couldn't have predicted.

I hope everyone has a great Le Mans week, the on track action will not disappoint!
