The damaged P2 just went passed on a flatbed. No obvious chassis damage, just bodywork. All 4 wheels facing the same direction.

That Audi screenshot, I'm on the left yup.

Well this is the FIA we are talking about. But then there are higher speeds so therefore the Armco will be more likely to get damaged.

Thinking about it, how often have we had barrier damage this often at Le Mans?

I know they are kids but I am still bloody jealous of them at Le Mans.

Have just made a vow to go to Le Mans with my kid in 10 years' time.

Well, people are just crashing into those barriers more... Can't really blame Le Mans for that.

But it's a bit strange that in this case the car seems to have come off with far less damage than the barrier...

Depending on Uni, I really want to go next year!

With the barriers, it's obviously difficult, but if it becomes a bit of a joke it's probably time to upgrade.

Still, good news for barrier producers of the Loire Valley.

Isn't that what barriers are there for? :p

It's not as if the barriers are totally destroyed. It seems to me that they've gotten very cautious and immediately repair any damage to it

In a way, yes. But wouldn't they be doing a better job if they could absorb the impact without falling to bits themselves? :p

On way to Mulsanne corner for the night session. Rain isn't heavy but it's steady.

Have you got everything planned of where to go for the weekend? Like being at Arnage at late at night or the run down to Indianapolis at sunrise?

Still amazing how a presenter with that kind of English has found herself on a international channel. Not jus that, but the questions are so retarted. Luckily Halliday is doing the interviews on the actual broadcast (jinx?), she might be annoying as a commentator too but there's no comparison... This alone has improved the broadcast much.

ps. What a gentleman smartass Jacki Ickx is :lol:

Her English might have improved but she's still terrible at interviews.

YOU HAVE SUCH A NICE TEAM
