I can't get timing working anywhere anymore :(

e: just as i say that, the WEC page seems to be working

I can log in but that's it. I'm kind of hoping as we get ever closer to the night cap everything starts working better.

e: I let it sit for like, 15 minutes and the video is trying to but the timing loaded!

Racing at this time is only my second favourite moment of the race, but by god is it gorgeous. Can't wait for sunrise

Need to know what your favorite is because to me there's no better part of Le Mans than the night driving.

Easy, the hour before sunrise into full blast sunlight. Staying up watching it helps, the kind of strange sleep-drunk observer stage where the drivers are starting to smash personal bests with the sun coming up. I dunno, it feels like racing romance I guess.

e: wow the smoke on that #8 car

When you put it that way it's really hard not to agree.

Also if the team had loving listened to Buemi when he was speaking about the breaks 5 laps earlier this would've have been that big of a deal.

Also fuckin LMAO at the #64 Corvette.

100% agreed, it's like when you have a sleepover as a kid and stay up until sunrise.

Why is the #1 cam pointing at the driver?

Because Neel Jani thinks he's good looking but he's really not. He's not.

Also I believe the cams cycle at intervals. It was pointing out earlier.

Heh, the #91 onboard just had the guy completely miss his braking point for the first Mulsanne chicane.
