It would be an odd time to introduce a new fuel flow system to the car, would it not? Unless they had serious concerns about the previous system. Whatever it is, clearly the crew cannot get a hold of it. If they get penalized again they may as well bring the car in and have a look.

Not sure about WEC, but in TUSCC it was merely a sudden change of BoP.

ByKolles says "bye" to its rear wing. That's one way to get the speed trap figures up.

Kaffer does well to hold onto it braking into T1.

Le Mans spec for the CLM!

The #912 hit the #71 at the start of FCY, its one bad thing about FCY.

Why the hell did they go for a FCY instead of a slow zone on the start/finish? They'd already used one successfully for the Rebellion pulling off.

Looks like the Porsche didn't see the FCY board on the left?

Didn't seem to affect the car too much. Shows how well it works when it's attached, I guess!

I wonder why there is a huge difference between the times of the cars during FCY. Especially between the leading Porsche and the second Audi.

Was it the first or last lap of the FCY?

e. P2 battle is heating up. Top 3 within 6 seconds.

e2. "62,000 spectators here this weekend" That's quite good isn't it?

Audi will have to settle, today, for the win they just got on DTM because, on pace, there is no way they'll catch the #17

In that case it depends on where they are on the track when the FCY ends. For example if you are in the last corner you've done almost the whole lap at FCY speed, if you're in the first corner then you've done almost the whole lap at racing speed. Maybe

Never trust numbers put out by the officials. Good crowd yes but certainly not more than 20k.

#18 has spent 3 minutes in the pits serving penalties and is still fighting with the Audis.
