47 cars for Ferrari Challenge, which is 3 more than in 2013 but 9 less than 2011 (of those that practiced). Enzo Pottolicchio is entered.
http://static.pro.races.ferrari.com/...e_Mans_v01.pdf For the LMP3/GT3 race, this makes it sound like Brundle is gonna miss Baku even with the early start for the support race (unless he sticks in to follow the 24?) or it just means he misses half of the weekend or sth: “I’ve been to over 500 Grands Prix, so I can miss one and it’s not going to ruin my life. It’s not a problem." He also says he wouldn't mind another go at LMP2 in future, if possible. http://sportscar365.com/lemans/road-...n-opportunity/ Last edited by Deleted; 8 Jun 2016 at 16:29. |

Really excited for the GT3 race, especially to see the Lamborghini, Mercedes, and McLaren flying down the Mulsanne. Wonder what kind of lap times they'll achieve, compared to the GTE cars

Brundle appears to have been sick on his twitter thread.
Is he ok for LM or is he just "throwing a sickie"?! |

Throwing a sickie from his F1 commitments and then appearing at le mans might be a little obvious

It often gets mentioned.
It'll be a shame for him if he misses the race. He was looking forward to it |

Annoyed that alkamelsystems doesn't appear to show the session results (?). Only seen the general press releases for the LMP3/GT3 FP sessions but they're half useless for data.

I've seen him now. I'm not sure he got any running today. He got in the car went to the end of the pit lane and then they red flagged the session and they had to push him back down the pit lane. On RLM he said he'd like to do the 24h again. Posted from Le Mans on some magical electronic device XT-43-F |

So the video part is only there to show that they run ads on Dailymotion? Odd.
RLM is fun to listen to, though. |

BTW Hindy and others have mentioned that something happened with Ginetta, but I must have missed that news. What was it that made all those Ginettas go away and be replaced by Ligiers?

I apologise, if you look at their "Video Box" they make it appear that the qualifying would be streamed but if you look in the bottom left you can just about make out "live timing only".
Dont know how much proper dry track time the drivers have had. |

It feels like all quali sessions this year are going to be quite choppy with lots of yellows.

Yes, the organisers are trigger happy with reds and yellows. Ultra cautious when it's not the race...
Anyway, well done Daddy Brundle. Posted from Le Mans on some magical electronic device XT-43-F |

There have been worse interruption years.
You know I was kinda hoping to see the Ginetta making pole and breaking the Onroak chain right in front of Oak headquarters. But Brundle on pole is pretty neat sight The ADESS??? Hmm 3:55 for top LMP3 time is "okay" I feel |
