The Loeb's journey : you'll find a summary on the french broadcast Tout Le Sport... (the bandwidth seems too narrow for a proper use and I didn't succeed to download it myself ; I hope you'll be more successful than I).

It has been suggested that the restrictions applied to the older LMP's for this years race have hindered the turbo engined cars more than the normally aspirated cars.

Yes, the Audi's do seem to have suffered a little more than their normally aspirated opponents but I'm most interested in the enormous difference in lap times between the two Dallaras. The Nissan (turbo) engined car has arguably the stronger driver lineup and despite the paddle shift problems they had, the car appeared to have no pace whatsoever during the Test Day.

Can anyone explain the Nissan Dallara's lack of pace?

My 2p as a non-tech amateur : the engine is too young, and there's still work to do...

I think we're to demanding with new cars. They didn't have much time/money to test, develop and practice, as, say, AM or Corvette...

Still amazed by the Judd one, though... my support goes to RollCentre, not only because Martin is an occasionnal TT poster, but I like the sportsmen feeling the whole team shows...

They deserve something, IMHO, especially after last year drama.

Roll on, RollCentre, caissons are rolling !

Whoever said old-style racing tracks weren't wide enough!? There's no excuse not to have some excellent battles, seeing how they can fit 6 cars side-by-side there!
