Watch this short video: That looks like some kind of comedy skit Hopefully everyone was alright, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ 15,328 Posted July 29, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted July 29, 2021 By the way, @Eco - Porsche recently started publishing nice video series on their youtube channel about their Le Mans history. Each episode features one legendary Porsche racing car and its drivers and engineers, presented by Timo Bernhard. 4 episodes already out, 2 more to be released. A great format, and perfect for any Porsche fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 This driver camera is pretty incredible, just shows how close they get to the limits, other cars, and just how close they come to absolutely losing control of the car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh it's not the same system as F1! There's no elimination here. Basically, each driver of each team gets one quali session to put in as many laps as possible (that's why they have four sessions, with 4-driver teams taking part in Q1 only, and then all teams in remaining sessions). The final qualifying time for the team is the average of the fastest laps set by each driver in their respective session. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
