Haha, I don't really hate Toyota... but the way FIA/ACO/Toyota created the hype by marketing this as pretty much 24 Hours of Alonso has been really annoying in the last weeks. That, and I also like Rebellion and want them to win.

Safety car mixed up things quite nicely in the GTE Pro; Porsche 91 has two Fords right behind it, this is going to be fun

Hopefully a sign of things to come! Still over 5 hours left...

Not yet, unfortunately At some point car 8 seemed to have some issues with the brakes, but nothing serious...

Jesus Christ That's car 17 with punctured rear tires turning into a pile of fire and smoke while trying to make it back into the pits.

Update: 94 is officially dead

Yes, still working on it in the garage...

Unlucky safety car timing for them, dropped down to 9th and then fought back to 5th! Meanwhile, suspension failure car 94

Montoya into the wall

Hopefully not. I still expect both Toyotas to break down at some point 5 hours gone, less than two hours till sunset. First retirement of the race, ByKolles... https://streamable.com/o1090 GTE Pro battle is nothing short of amazing, it looks like they got the BoP spot on this time! Everyone is competitive, bar Aston Martin.

Cheers! I have WEC abo, so I'm watching the main race stream on my laptop, and two onboard cameras on my phones (Porsche 92 and Ford 68)

Half an hour to go until the start of the greatest race in the world!

No rain, but poor track conditions and plenty of disruptions, including a lot of slow zones and full course yellows due to mostly minor accidents... Quali 2 was even red flagged, and only a few cars managed to improve their times on the final quali session. I honestly don't know how Bruni managed that pole lap on the first session, no one was able to get even close to it, the rest of Porsches, Fords, Ferraris, BMWs and Corvettes ran relatively similar lap times, and Aston Martin is just shite and 5 seconds off the pace... Updated BoP for the race sees added weight for Porsche and Ford (10 and 8 kg, respectively), Ferrari stays the same, Corvette and Aston gets lighter (5 and 10 kg).

Yes, most of it, had it running on another screen parallel to football. Why?

Great pic. He's not gone yet, although it's probably for the best, he should go back to Porsche and proper sportscar racing.

Now official!

Next transfer for us, a young talented Swedish right back, Felix Beijmo from Djurgardens IF! He's just passed his medical, transfer to be announced later today. Now it's time to sign a couple of midfielders...

This is horrible.

I'd really love too! It's one of those big events that I have on my hypothetical bucket-list Beer is obviously a big plus as well

Oh absolutely, that's also part of the appeal of motorsports in general. I mean the risks, not the deaths, of course. The thing is, everyone knows the risk, but almost everyone also underestimates it; and no one ever thinks it will happen to him/her... Still very sad, especially when it's a 14 year old kid... And yeah, TT is absolutely mad, those guys are crazy!

Yes, heard it earlier today... There's been too many motorcycle deaths recently, first Dan Kneen and Adam Lyon in Isle of Man TT, and now this kid... This is horrible, so young In better news, 24 Hours of Le Mans is back again this weekend!!!

This can't be real
