Thanks deggis; I was going to post that but you beat me to it.
Here's to hoping at least the first 25 minutes are good, and after that the 5h 35mins can sort itself out! |

That is one splendid-looking grid, hard to believe that we're still lacking a few cars, later races will be even better.
A golden age for sports car racing, I always have to remind myself about that to not take it for granted |

Audi have to sort their hybrid starting issues, not only does it cost them time but its downright dangerous.

Stupid XXX-munching Fox 1 is showing commercials still ... going to join "in progress ... " Fox should be renamed colon-cancer TV (my sincere apologies to any who might have or know those who actually have the affliction.)

The Audi didnt start in the rear, it just did its usual no power thing at the start and everything overtook it.
The Dempsey car is really slow, even with Pat Long at the wheel |

Hate it when the drivers complain over the radio about other drivers lines, What is this? F1?

P2 battle is as good as P1 ... Hope FIA finds a way not to screw that up.

Fox is about eight minutes behind the actual race ... Intro and five minutes of commercials before the green flag ... makes T&S into a time machine.

I wonder what the ratings will be for this vs the farce they are about to put on at Long Beach in a few days.

What really amazes me is that these cars aren't just using fascinating technology, it also produces fantastic racing. First half hour has been nothing short of awesome.

I don't follow GTE so closely, is there an explanation why AF Corse is no factor so far?

Thiim has a massive gap on the rest of the GTE field. Over 13 seconds on Turner.

After watching the P1s, the GTEs look pathetically slow ... relativity.
