The Kolles is dead on track ... is that even something to mention, or should I just post ... Kolles entered this race, and everyone will know what I mean. it came back to life! That is surely news.

Oh, and thanks for the link.

The #8 put a scrubbed set on this stint IIRC. That could explain the lack of pace, particularly in traffic.

Kinda thinking something's up with the #2 Porsche. It can run quick laps on occasion, but now it's over a minute behind the leaders.

it's not off the pace ... maybe it is just not pushing too hard, saving a little in case something goes awry with the #1. EDIT: Marc Lieb says .....

unbalanced ....

Shutters down on the #7. Ullrich confirms that they have retired the car due to homologation issues (removing/disconnecting the MGU apparently invalidated the regs, so did the rule change since LM last year?)

That's a very stupid rule. They can't run without hybrid? Really? Where is the spirit of endurance? Ridiculous.

Probably changed post-Spa when Porsche did the same thing with the #2 that finished second. So Porsche better hope to not have a repeat of either Spa or Bahrain last year.

I agree, the ACO have let cars putter around with blowing/blown engines (including Toyota at Spa), so why not with hybrid systems that don't work right?

This just seems like an odd reason to DQ a car. Commentators don't understand it either.

Can anyone confirm that the #8 only took left tyres?

Sarrazin pits, but the #6 stays a few seconds behind the #8.

Sarrazin vs Di Grassi, I think this will go Audi's way.

I think Sarrazin is the slowest in the #6 at least. Di Grassi has more pace it seems.

Thanks, Audi must have had a problem on the stop then, as the time in the pits was identical.

If the #8 keep its pace for the stint I expect to see the other factories try it.

Edit - I didn't know Max Verstappen was driving for Manor.

Kept his foot in it ... got some good air. (re: Manor vs Signatech) Apparently Richard Bradley is an adherent of the Helio Castroneves school of defending.
