General Discussion / What a finish for Aston Martin

  Absolutely loved watching that battle with the corvette at the end. Kinda annoyed that stinking Porsche had the speed to catch up and take the overall win too but I'd happily watch nothing but GTE's for 24 hours.

On a side note,for what I seen,Eurosport's done a good job of covering it this year and some great new camera angles.

Funny,I drop in to see if the "lights" topic has started and I'm mentioned twice 

Hatching sprog number 2 in the next couple of weeks has hampered any attempts to get back but I'll get there one day. Tying a knot in it once this one arrives though.

Sign of the times. The guide was very helpful in my first years of visiting Le Mans so thank you to all who contributed.

Had the last hour recorded as I was working today. Although my twat of a brother messaged me about it before I'd seen it and ruined it I have to say,what a stinger for Toyota. Ran the perfect race to be let down that close to the line. That's racing though.

Fairly sure they are available to preorder and although road car specs may vary,I'd imagine the basic car,and more importantly the parts that matter for going racing will be set in concrete for homologation purposes.

They say the forecast is for the rain to pass and hopefully allow some running. Race director just said he doubts pit exit will open before 23:10 local time.

No one seems to have done it yet so here it is and here I am again

Been a while since I last logged in,I just don't get the time these days,and I've just managed to sit down to watch my first bit of action and it's a red flag 

Bet that safety car drivers just filled his shorts with that slide too

Ok 100 km inside the artic circle and just about to start my 2026 mile pilgrimage 

See you on Monday morning Nick. Departure for me is 7:30 am in the morning. Just about packed and just need to run through my list for a few last items. Probably the most organised I've been.  Looking forward to my first beer 'in a field, in France'.

Safe trip everyone

Passport???
