BMW Hybrid quickest in qualifying. The GT3s not so much. Hybrid crashed in night practice.

I think the #3 CADILLAC RACING (S. Bourdais, R. van der Zande, S. Dixon) will be there in the end. I do love to root for the underdogs.

It’s a great race, I drove the e39 540i there in 2003 to see the Bentley Speed 8’s take a 1st & 2nd. Although tbf Audi didn’t compete as it was Bentleys 100th Anniversary year.
It was a great weekend, the drive there & back was pretty good too

Personally, I’m anxious to see Jenson Button drive for Team Jota Porsche! Big fan of Jenson so great to see him behind the wheel again!

Strong cross winds blowing over the track with forest debris as the race gets under way with the 50 Ferrari AF Corse just now taking the lead.

Disappointed in BMW’s program. The car was developed at the same time as the Porsche and they’ve figured it out. Time to fix the mechanical and possible driver issues as they seem to qualify well, but can’t keep the pace during the race.

At least the M4 GT3 platform seems to be doing well.
