How were Toyota looking in the actual pace area? Looks like their car is a good step forward over the previous model

Eurosport isn't part of the Sky Sports package....what the loving hell? Have to subscribe to another set of channels if I want Le Mans (which is sport) on the telly.

Helicon One posted:Eurosport is and has always been part of the basic Sky package, is it even possible to get Sky Sports without the core Sky pack? It's not. It's part of the entertainment plus pack. You can get just sky sports through a Now TV (sky) box though I don't see the point of those

For those who can't watch Le Mans live on Eurosport/can't stream, Quest (UK Channel, base package on Sky and Virgin iirc) have: -Start from 1:30 pm -Live coverage/highlights 8pm-9pm Saturday -Recap of the night's events at 10am Sunday Morning -The last hour and finish live. Also the have live coverage of the FIA World RallyCross Championship every round Sneaks McDevious fucked around with this message at 15:42 on Jun 12, 2016 |

I've always found Eurosport's coverage really good and as I was paying for it already(somehow) saw no reason to pay for the WEC stream

track day bro! posted:Eurosports coverage was poo poo last year and I got sick of the same ads 9000 times. Yeah they were pretty bad looking back on it. The commentary was good though, they usually bring in some interesting folks during the night to tell stories and some have obviously had a drink Helicon One posted:Looking again, I don't see it so that must have changed recently. Eurosport WAS part of the basic package ever since they first launched though. Its only in the last 2-3 years that they changed this WEC should make a PS4 app for the streaming

uwaeve posted:I think I bought it last year, but refresh my memory: is the official stream purchased through the app (I have one called 24H Le Mans on the phone)? I don't see any purchase option in the app, but it may need to be closer to the weekend, idk. You can do it on the WEC website as well and the account works on up to 3 devices simultaneously

harperdc posted:Also, this article from Marshall Pruett interviewing drivers about the experience of driving some of the monstrous 1,000 hp plus prototypes is a pretty good read. It's worth it just for Mark Blundell's final lines regarding that old Nissan he set a record in. That's a pro click. I knew the power was over 1000 but never knew it was that much on some of them

Those would have been manual gear shifters too. Incredible stuff though I still love this era and the technology, even if it is less about the driver

harperdc posted:the M6 is already homologated as a GT3, it's up-scaled to run as GTLM only in the US just like the Z4 before it. That should indicate how important the US market is to BMW. I like their strategy of using Formula E and WEC/IMSA, as well as customer racing through GT3. Just curious what they'll race. Maybe they will do like Honda did the NSX and race the Z5 before the road car is out

BMB5150 posted:As for BMW that M6 is gt3 homologated and IMSA has given clearance for both GTLM M6 and Z4 to compete while ACO forbids those cars so it's going to be a new car of some sort. i8? They are pretty small though

drgitlin posted:Same size as 570S more or less. But it's got a 1.5L 3 cylinder engine. There's no way to make that competitive in GTE. An M4 or M6 is most likely. Oh I didn't know the engine had to be the same as the road car in those categories.

Citroen made so little of their rally success. A C4 with white wheels and some decals. That's it. Shame on them.

njsykora posted:Given they've supposedly had help from the Sports Interactive guys (Football Manager aka the gods of this game type) I'd hope its actually deeper and not just lots more meters that do basically the same thing. No there is more complex things like staff relationships etc (which hopefully does something) and you can also risk running parts that won't pass scrutineering which is hopefully a bit of fun
