Wasn't the ACO aiming for times above the 3.30?


Yeah, and the GTs above 4:00. But the teams just sandbag during the test day so they don't get restricted more, then turn up on the weekend and blow away the times the ACO wanted. Same every year.

Is it just me, or has the live timing entered its traditional phase of not working?

Every year Peugeot say they aren't interested in pole, then every year when Audi go top, Peugeot go out do a single flying lap for the fastest, lol.

I can't believe that Eurosport won't even broadcast the qualy on its main channel in its home country. They're showing stupid golf instead...

Great qualy though, the race is setting up to be awesome.

Aston Martin V12 and the Corvette are the best sounding cars at Le Mans.
