No streaming and no TV coverage.. The website is till Blanc on the TV coverage section....
It pritty s**ks... it is a nonsense to do a championship so famous without 19 cars and no TV coverage... |

I thought the race will be on motors.tv
so no tv coverage at all? what about the rest of the season? "Motors TV will show all the races live. To this can be added live streaming in partnership with Dailymotion (link on the site www.europeanlemansseries.com )" http://www.europeanlemansseries.com/....php?news=2081 Last edited by lms; 31 Mar 2012 at 08:12. |

It is going to be on Motors, albeit not for the whole race.
Interesting to see the early pace of the teams. Murphy straight to the top courtesy of Warren Hughes. Problems for Boutsen Ginion which has caught fire. EDIT: Not a pretty sight - https://twitter.com/#!/dsceuroeditor...700864/photo/1 Last edited by Simmi; 31 Mar 2012 at 08:36. |

Zolder still seems to be open to question- apparently team managers and ELMS organisers are meeting this evening, and an announcement is hoped for this weekend... As you suggest, incorporating the LMS grid into Spa might not be the answer either- DSC have apparently spoken to a number of teams, and it poses a problem for some, particularly those who are running WEC and ELMS with the same cars, and have contractual obligations with different drivers for each series...(I'm guessing these might include OAK and AF Corse?) On the other hand, a number of drivers (according to an interview with Jonny Cocker) are in favour of the idea... |

It's a really tricky situation. I was glad to see yesterday that the Donington round seems to have been green-lit.
I can certainly see why someone like Cocker would want to be mixing it up with the WEC teams and race in that shop window as much as possible. For other teams it would mean huge complications. I don't think the ELMS is beyond saving this season if the series can attract a few additional entries in the GT ranks. Beyond this season I'm not sure. |

Well that Status Lola just jumped to 2nd on the grid. That'll answer your question.

During the ELMS preview on RLM, Graham or John seemed to have mentioned that Jetalliance was no more. Can't remember the reason though.

Shame about the small field because the ELMS have put in far more effort with their website compared to the WEC.
http://www.europeanlemansseries.com/...01p01_home.php A video stream that actually works and a good timing screen as well. Is Loeb there at the track after he retired from the Portuguese rally the other day? Also what is the #11 Race Performance car doing holding up the Greaves car for so long?

Seems Zolder is gone and Donington is confirmed. Nothing planned to replace Zolder as yet.
Now, can concentrate only on N24 that weekend! |

I have had some involvement in the process. The main setback was Hankook leaving sportscar racing. You should have seen the proposed designs for a Hankook JAR Lola LMP2 coupe After that they were always chasing behind the curve... |

Especially if they could stick in Erdos alongside Sims/Buurmann. Not sure if that would work out in terms of the driver ratings. |
