Eurosport seemed to show the race to be very good and it was close run thng i believe.

The big firms this year stretched their legs to show just how much better they are.

Good race but can't help thinking that Peugoet threw it away- why did they not push in the last 6 hours? I think they thought Audi would fall apart in the final hours.
 Favorite car for of was the new Dome, lovely looking car- will it be a Toyota next year?

I think the Pugs were having to hold off as they would have boiled the engines. We saw them come into the pits a couple of times & get pulled into the garage. Back cover came off & loads of steam. That was the general opinion of the TV commentators anyway.

HTB!

Well if thats the case its a pretty poor job they have done in the last year. They had the same problem 12 months ago and an engineering solution should have been found. It wasn't particularly hot either. Must have been something else slowing them.

Anyone recorded the race ?

I set the hard disc to record about 9 hours worth, only to get home and discover we had a power cut and the Sky box went off so have 9 hours worth of a blank screen insteed. >:(
