2008 levels of rain would be good.

It'll spice things up, but it should advantage Peugeot. Audi have never ran in anger in the rain with the new system. When you put in wipers and demisters, things get a bit more complex. Peugeot have already sorted that.

I can't believe how fast the last 12 months have flown by. Feels like Le Mans was a month ago!

Heading the English language team as usual will be Martin Haven, Mark Cole and Jeremy Shaw, while Radio Le Mans' John Hindhaugh will take spells behind the Eurosport microphone too.

Expanded driver input will come from Stuart Hall, Liz Halliday, Damien Faulkner, Johnny Mowlem and Marino Franchitti, backed by Legends stalwarts and night-owls Neville Hay and Chris Parsons

Just wondering, who would replace Stefan Mücke if he really would lose his racing license? (GT Thread for more infos)

Assuming he races under a German license, it'll be the national authority that decides it. I don't know who that is for the Germans, but for the Brits it's the MSA I think. It really depends on what time frame they work in. But removing his license for Le Mans would certainly get his attention, and would probably be justified in this case.

Enge would be most likely to replace him, as he's in the Young Driver Aston Martin, and that is only on the Le Mans reserve list.

Dont think it will happen before Le Mans, even if its going to happen.

German Licencing Authority will handle it.

NASCAR teams should take note, that's how to do a proper paint scheme

NASCAR won't take note, it's not a NASCAR sanctioned race...

Not yet tested, but since it unfortunately still uses MS Silverlight, I guess not much has changed from last year. There are likely several bitrate options. I think last year they were something like 500 kbps / 800 kbps / 1,5 Mbps. According to the FAQ, at least in some countries there is HD stream available ("A minimum of 5 Mb/S is recommended for Eurosport HD"). In addition it appears there is going to be a natural sounds stream with no interruptions (?).
