Geo blocked for the US, all those outside should get it just fine on the ALMS.com stream.

Great, looks like I get to miss watching the race live again, then avoid all of these sites until the website uploads it and I can find time to watch it.

I think it stings this year even more than last year.

Is there any HD-Livestream available? It would be nice to have a list of TV / Internet channels where the 12 hours are broadcasted live.

For people in Europe, I only found this so far:

MotorsTV LIVE:
15:30 CET - 17:30 : START of the race (live)
20:00 - 4:00 : uninterrupted live action until finish

But as MotorsTV does not get broadcasted in HD, I'm looking for an HD source... any web site on the internet?

So just like Audi, Aston Martin will be using a 2013-spec car for the #97 and a 2012-spec car for the #007. (I presume the 2nd car in WEC will be 2013-spec)

Both Rebellion Lolas have done a 1:48 flat. That is faster than their qualifying time from 2012 (1:48.630 and 1:48.956) and their best race lap from 2012 (1:49.477 and 1:49.946).

The bigger restrictor and the lower weight (890 kg in 2013 vs 900 kg) are really helping the privateer LMP1s.

I thought the only competitive car for the Audis is the Muscle Milk HPD ARX-03c, isn't that true?

Really hard to know what to expect with it being the first race of the season. Rebellion is certainly expected though to challenge Muscle Milk all year long in ALMS and Dyson is expected to do better on Michelin.

The big unknown for the moment is how good the 2013 upgrades are for the various cars. The Rebellion Lolas certainly are faster, two seconds a lap quicker than what they qualified at last year. Muscle Milk is already faster than what they qualified at as well. And it's only Monday.

If the 2013 upgrades to the Lola and HPD are enough to get them even with or ahead of the 2012 spec Audi, then things get a lot more interesting. And that's even more true if the 2013 Audi has an sort of developmental issues.

DHH said the Continental PC tire so far seems an improvement over the old Michelins. I guess nobody told him that the forum experts said they couldn't make a capable tire.

It certainly is unexpected, though the Michelin tires were quite a hard compound to begin with.

What's even funnier is the obfuscation of spec vs spec as opposed to the actual conversation that was, top class spec vs top class customer tires.

You will enjoy it! (as long as you don't like sleep that much!)


Interesting to note from the first test session this morning the AJR Ferrari was slightly faster than the Risi car. I didn't expect that even in the test.

Also worth noting is that the best qualifying time last year in GTC was 2:06.674. In the first practice this year, seven of the nine GTC cars that went out were faster than that, with the Alex Job Racing car quickest of all this morning at 2:05.297.

Something which seems really weird is that the driver of each car isn't shown on T&S. I hope they fix that for raceday this Sunday!

This is common during testing. I don't think they're required to use the driver transponders, or something to that effect.
