[airbusA346]

It'll be interesting to see if anything is done with LMGT3 BOP. 0.808 between 1st and 2nd.

FP4 will be delayed to 10:30pm local.

[joeb]

Now to what is really important, the predictions comp. A couple people picked the #6 and babapapa had the time:

1. Hyperpole time to nearest thousandth and the car
3:24.389 - Porsche #6

[AndreasDavour]

Impressive pole, even though I kind of hoped for Bourdais to get it.

[Gerard C]

#6, #2 and #51 must go to scrutineering but not #3.

Wonder why Proton didn't put Barker in the car for Hyperpole

Don't forget that it was AM drivers doing qualifying in LMGT3. The gaps aren't representative.

[Ferrari333SP]

Who would have imagined two Caddy's in the top 3

All the drivers have to be Bronze for LMGT3.

[veeten]

Wouldn't you know, between Hyperpole on my tablet and Phantom Menace on the tv with the Pod races...

[v8supes]

Hopefully Estre has enough fuel for a sample considering they were doing everything they could to save fuel on the in lap

[Ferrari333SP]

Crazy to think these times are roughly 12 seconds slower than the fastest LMP1 time

Iribe and Malykhin aren't 'slow' bronzes.

They weren't using any fuel during the in lap. Fully electric.

[veeten]

That tank was bone dry. He literally emptied it on that lap.

Nobody's perfect.

[airbusA346]

#15 BMW will start at the back of the hypercar field (but in front of the Jota Porsche).

[Articus]

That Porsche looks like a handful to drive.

[veeten]

If this isn't incentive enough for McLaren to build that Hypercar, then I don't know what will.

[airbusA346]

Anyone know why they stopped the English stream on WEC TV, but kept the French one going.

Also can't see a link for FP4.

Are you sure? Not to doubt you but the broadcast showed the #15 in 7th and the Jota Porsche in 8th.

It doesn't make sense that they would start at the back of hypercar if they qualified for hyperpole.

[Greem]

That was epic. First time I've watched Leeperpurl on the tellybox and it was really very good indeed.

Those last few Leepercar laps were brilliant.

Just read it again... starts at the back of hyperpole group like Jota.

I was watching the Japanese stream. Kinda hard to follow, but fun to watch.

Thank you, J Sports.
