Pit box interviews have kind of laid-back attitude.

I'm enjoying that, it's the Aussie way What a hell of a weekend for the GT3 Endurance Team from New Zealand. First half of their drivers get involved in a car accident before the weekend and end up in hospital and then their one remaining car just got taken out by the Imak Porsche GT3R. |

Definitely was at speed the next time around so I think Efi was correct.

Gee-whiz... Dean Canto looked like he was happy enough to drive straight through the back of that Bentley!

That was ridiculously lucky as the Audi came back across the chicane and avoided the other cars. Audi beached, safety car

Some very aggressive driving there again... not sure I like that, especially since it seems to become a bit of a trend at the big GT enduros like N'Ring and Spa.

One of the Bentley drivers is sick?
Bell maybe? |

Yeah it was Bell that had to get out of the car.
From looking at the fans on him heat soak may have been the cause, but regardless I hope Bell will be okay. |

Fitzgerald said he let one Bentley through but I don't think he expected Bows to dive through also.
Now Antunes into the wall at the Cutting in #5 for another SC |

I'd say they are but the heat transmitted through the firewall is worse than almost everything

2015 Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour: 6-8 February
Quote:
Yes it seems to be a common theme of front engined GT cars. Remember years ago back in the FIA GT days when they were racing in Bahrain (?) the drivers of the Ferrari 550/575 found the going quite tough. Oliver Gavin would know about that having raced Vettes for years. |

Apparently Bell is now okay, rehydrated (so it was probably heat related).
I wonder if they'll make him sit out the rest of the race or put him in near the end. |
