Cerastes 204 Report post Posted June 16, 2017 I'm not there as I'm working but I will be watching most of it. Also, apparently Toyota took the front row in qualifying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DReppe 4 Report post Posted June 16, 2017 Yeah hopefully they manage to make it to the finish line this time on front! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted June 16, 2017 We should definitely do it as a club one year. Only trouble is, it needs commitment the year before to get the right camping places. Enjoy, I so badly want to go back again. I'm having a Le Mans party at home instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, they did, 1, 2 and 4. Koboyashi set a blistering pace well ahead of anyone else to take pole position. Been watching the qually the last two evenings.

DReppe 4 Report post Posted June 18, 2017 One Toyota left running, one burst into flames at arnarge. It's possible that a lmp2 car could get on the podium! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerastes 204 Report post Posted June 18, 2017 Yep, woke up this morning to the news I think 2 LMP2 cars can make the podium, the next LMP1 car is 4 laps down on 2nd, 3 laps down on 3rd, but is doing laps 10secs quicker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted June 18, 2017 It just went from bad to worse in the early hours. First the lead numbr 7 car couldn't accelerate and never made it back. Then the number 8 car in second had a puncture and suffered a similar fate. Was just awful to watch. I went ot bed at 1.30am or so as no point staying up all night. I really thought we were going to do it this year, but it's worse than last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
