Haven't seen the WR either.

And why so many laps that are 10minutes +?

Is that a fault, or are they going REALLY slowly?

And what's going on with Spyker? Both have been out, but the fastest has a lap just over 4minutes in length?

My understanding of Spyker's situation is that this morning was more of a shakedown as they have done so little running with the new car. In fact the whole weekend could turn out to be a big test for them although I am sure/hope that will get quicker over the weekend!

Good spot (must have gone out very late, there were only 43 cars listed as I was posting).

I know it's very early days, but that 1:34.008 of Verstappen's looks extraordinary. Someone needs to let him know that qualifying isn't until Saturday!

I agree, let's hope they pick up!

Still, 14:14 is a slow lap.

Surely that gotta be a low fuel hotlap by Verstappan?
He can't be THAT much ahead of the rest of the LMP2 field.

Looking at the times again maybe the 2nd Spyker had an off being as its fastest lap time was over 14 minutes?

I will check it out.....Damn I hate not being there!!

14 minutes is an impressively slow time. Good work, whoever that was...

And Dunlop, I agree and hope you're right

Hopefully this session we will start to see some quicker lap times, back in 2001 the pole for the FIA SCC race was a 1:34.399 and they arent lapping much quicker than that at the moment. I know that the circuit has changed since that time but it hasnt really slowed the circuit down for any of the other series that race at Catalunya so the same should apply for the LMS.

That's not entirely true.
First they reprofiled the long lefthander before the pits, which didn't change laptimes much. But last year they added that ugly chicane before the final corner, which costed the F1 cars about 6 seconds a lap.
So if they run the configuration with the chicane, i can understand laptimes not being faster.

He claims on his website it was not, and that they even have some reserve
left in the car. He also adds that other teams might need some more time to
get up to speed and might not be showing their entire hand.

Personally I do think he will keep setting the fastest laps in LMP2, but I don't
think the difference will remain this huge. Plus, it's clear that Van Merksteijn is
quite a bit slower, as he was only 13th in the second session, so the race
might get interesting.
