Good plan!

It's going to be in the pits for one more hour. They are replacing something at the rear frame.

Spawinte · 24 May 2008, 22:30 (Ref:2210830)

just tuning into the stream now, seems to be mostly wide angle long distance of part of the modern track interspersed with shots from pitstops, is this all we'll be getting during the night?

mufc6000 · 24 May 2008, 22:33 (Ref:2210832)

That's your coverage done for the night.

Yeah, they will show just shots of some of the lighted parts of the track as well as showing pit stops.

Dead-Eye · 24 May 2008, 22:36 (Ref:2210836)

Why don't they stay with the pitlane shots most of the time if they have someone with a camera running around there anyway?

Surely its much more interesting to see tiny headlights whizz past the bottom right hand of the screen.

Possible accident by the Viper at Brünnchen, according to Jörg Müller

nickyf1 · 24 May 2008, 23:07 (Ref:2210868)

hmm

*grabs a cofee*

Thanks for that

Dead-Eye · 24 May 2008, 23:23 (Ref:2210876)

Seems to be true. The Viper has dropped to place 78, one position behind the #5 Z4 that rolled.

Speed-King · 24 May 2008, 23:51 (Ref:2210899)

Alzen standing at Kesselchen with a technical defect...

Great effort though for a brand new car, to go that far at all, especially given the reliability record of some of Alzen's earlier constructions.

broadrun96 · 24 May 2008, 23:52 (Ref:2210900)

This sounds like the Speed coverage of LM, just when important things have happened they cut away for a break. And of course RLM will come back just when I'm heading to bed tonite.

Prickly_Goo · 25 May 2008, 00:11 (Ref:2210915)

Can someone please tell me where the #50 Porsche is of Juniper/Twigg/Said/Luff?

If i read it correctly they are in the Top ten after 62 laps..? Is my translation right?

What are they supposed to do? It's 2am here and you can't see anything on track. All they could do is read the ticker to you, but you can do that yourself.

On my LTS they are 10 laps down in lap 59 at 51st position.

Land has taken the lead though. And Manthey should close up soon, depending on pit stop rhythm. Before RLM comes back it should be Manthey-Land-Hisaq.

Satorian · 25 May 2008, 00:17 (Ref:2210920)

Ticker says Juniper had a technical defect at 00:54 and are stranded in the RTL curve.

Speed-King · 25 May 2008, 00:17 (Ref:2210921)

Nevermind. Satorian said it all.

according to 24hs databank (live timing) it's 74º place now!!!

74 50 Porsche 997 RSR Juniper Shaun , Twigg Max , Said Boris , Luff Warren 59 9:41:50.886 13 Runden

Speed-King · 25 May 2008, 00:37 (Ref:2210928)

Hisaq with gearbox damage. Now it's Manthey vs Land. I'm off to bed, will be interesting to see who survived the night when I wake up.

Satorian · 25 May 2008, 00:48 (Ref:2210932)

Wow. Gumpert Apollo now out too. Dying like flies now.

Satorian · 25 May 2008, 01:03 (Ref:2210935)

Alzen Porsche continuing the race. Menzel at the wheel and going out on Intermediates.

broadrun96 · 25 May 2008, 01:33 (Ref:2210943)

Raining hard or just damp?

AndreasDavour · 25 May 2008, 01:38 (Ref:2210945)

The leading Land Porsche stuck at Schwedenkreutz if my German is to be believed. Someone who knows German who can confirm?

broken rear axle

Satorian · 25 May 2008, 01:46 (Ref:2210949)

Damn. There goes the race then. Nobody's going to challenge Manthey, who can safely take it home now.
