My god ELMS is fantastic this year.
What's up with Greaves? Miles off the pace. |

Edit - #33 pulling off track, #46 in the gravel hard at Luffield. Following this race is sheer pandemonium. Last edited by J Jay; 16 Apr 2016 at 13:54. |

Gutted we lost Eurasia and TDS. Very odd incidents for both too.

The race looks like total chaos, but I'm enjoying it

Welcome to the ELMS Mike, where an LMP3 goes round the outside and then Tincknell dives down the inside!

That'll surely need to be a FCY. Scary seeing marshals recovering that under waved yellows.

Another LMP3 going off track as well, would be a good time to pull a FCY and get them both recovered.

We won't have any LMP cars left at this rate, they're dropping like flies

I agree with earlier comments, feel like I'm watching an LM PC race! Has been entertaining though.

While I can understand why teams would try to ape Audi in order to look for success, I don't think the #3 LMP3 having one of its doors loose is quite the right way to go about it.

The 56 Ferrari must be wondering what he's done to be attacked by two different prototypes!

Tincknell pits and gets out after his double stint. It's time for Dolan vs. Dolan's Leap Round 3.

Saussett has just been lifted into his car, the #84. That was interesting to watch, hopefully his stint goes well.

From the weather radar it seems that there will be some rain before the end.

Dolan catching Barthez when they're both in clean air by 1+s/lap. The #23 & #38 should be together by the time the rain comes down...
Edit - Looks like my prediction might be spot on. Edit edit - Dolan leads, Leal-Covelli passes Krohn for 3rd. Last edited by J Jay; 16 Apr 2016 at 15:46. |

Spitting with rain now.
For some reason #96 Aston is 7-8 seconds a lap slower than the #99, I wonder if they have put Goethe in the car and not Stanaway as commentary suggested? Dragonspeed LMP2 car looks like it has a brake problem. |

I'm liking the P3 class ... seems to be good competition and not interfering with other classes.

They've been a great addition to the race so far. Not without their own problems, but that's to be expected from relatively new cars in such a large number. Having as much runoff as Silverstone does has helped there as well. Edit - Geirmaziak racing up to the back of Buret and Dolan. #38 looks to be hanging on for Dolan to do his time, but the tyres must be shot as he is closer to 2:00 times than 1:55.
