Qualifying on at the moment and I'm all excited, pity I'm away with work so will only catch bits of it this year.
2nd year in a row with me not there 🙁
Making do with Eurosport and Radio Le Mans.
I quite enjoyed the qualifying. Never watched it before, but will give it a go this year
Not quite sure how I feel about set fuel stops and BoP in the top class - but I’m sure I’ll be following it anyway!
I’ll be watching as usual. Think next year should be better as there will be a larger hypercar entry.
Yep it's the second year we're not there again. Stupid Covid. Hopefully we can use our tickets next year.
Will be watching on eurosport nonetheless.
Loved qualifying yesterday, surprised there hasn't been grumbles from the ACO with the amount of sand that flew out of the Toyotas - 6 seconds faster than test day! The target laptime of 3:30 was even getting beaten by the LMP2 front runners.
Really love the look of the Glickenhaus, hopefully they make it through the night.
Hopefully they'll get some of that sand replaced
The target laptime of 3:30 was even getting beaten by the LMP2 front runners.
That target is an average race pace target, not ultimate performance. And it was set before the ACO gave the hypercars extra power which they say is worth approx 1.6 secs per lap.
Wet start but they’re buggering around with an extra formation lap.
Chaotic first lap or so, Hypercar class spinning left right and centre. Drying up nicely now though

balls bigger than an male in the race and hard as nails
I watch some of the in car visuals with the graphic overlay and thought that was amazing. Then, last night I watched the same while they were doing 330kmph in the dark, flipping eck…. Massive cajones…
Yep, people don't realise just how much of a challenge Le Mans is. I struggled to stay awake for the 24hrs the three time I went, let alone race it at full chat!
Hopefully Peugeot will make an actual race of it next year. Glickenhouse did well bringing both their cars home, as a brand new team/car.
