24 Hours of Le Mans - Who's watching it?

Hey guys,

I know its a bit late to start a thread like this, there is only 9 hours of the race left.

So this is the 80th running of the event, seems to be getting better and better each year. New cars and new drivers always make the race enjoyable to watch, with the occasional crash here and there I missed it last year because I was too lazy to find out when it was on TV but I've made up for it this year

So I just wanted to know, who is watching the race?

on and off on eurosport sinces yesterday. About 30mins to go now looks like Adui R18 in the bag. Sort of expected the fast toyota's to drop surprised at the nissans as many of them still in the game. I tell ya toyota should of just helpped lola build a race car like there 2nd team instead of doing it all out. Do a mazda combo it.

but then again. I expect next few years with all the future power type cars expected to finally get more reliable who knows.

The GT class is a alittle surprising but good to some of the AM cars keeping up with the current stock

Would have been interesting to see where the Deltawing would have ended up, if it hadn't been taken out by a Toyota.

It was a mighty impact though. The Ferrari hit a tyre wall sideways and almost collapsed the armco.
