    Watching here, enjoyed the hyperpole qualifying format.

    Yup.

    I’ve told the wife that the TV is mine for the next 24 hours. 藍

    Would usually be there!

    Can’t believe Martin is on holiday in his camper van

    I'm watching, and hoping that Rebellion can get the job done in LMP1, but it's unlikely.

    We're an hour into the race, and somehow the Kolles car still seems to be running, but I'm sure that it won't last much longer. For those who don't know, Colin Kolles appears to have whatever the opposite of the Midas touch is, and had a short career in Formula 1, in charge of one of the incarnations of Spyker/Midland and Hispania, and has, in recent years, applied his talents to his own team in the WEC.

    GTE Pro usually makes for good watching, and a few decent dices - apparently the Aston Martins have won the annual weight-break lottery this year, and the Porsches have been awarded an extra 40kg to carry around for 24 hours.

    If anybody wants to follow the race, and doesn't have access to Eurosport, try the Radio Le Mans website, which should at least have audio commentary.
    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

    Thanks BP, seems like that website has three channels and you can play them in the background from a phone. Perfect.

    Toyota have great form at losing, so I wouldn’t rule out Rebellion. Would love to see the Swiss guys take a win. Probably their best chance ever!

    Not this year.

    Been watching some if the coverage on Eurosport, does all look a bit odd without spectators.

    Does anyone know why the race started at 2.30pm local time instead of the usual 3pm?

    Edit - just read that it may be due to the TDF finishing tomorrow, the change of start time was so that the finish times of both events won't clash and will allow for TV coverage for both.

    Perfect companion for the race this morning, channeling my inner Steve McQueen.
