Very surprising that the Audis weren't stronger..
Mr Antunes in the customer car did a great job to get in the shootout when the 'works' Jamec-PEM cars didnt

Shootout made for quite the spectacle, and it's definitely a good bit of advertisement for the race.
Was qualifying rule of 130% enforced?

the rule is

Quote:
All drivers must practice or qualify within 130% of the fastest lap time set during qualifying, save for exceptional circumstances accepted as such by the Stewards
so as long as you reached 130% of qualyfying time in a session then you were ok

all cars were well within that time in some session, there may be a driver or two who didnt make it, not sure on that

Anyone heard anything on the McLaren

It is an ongoing glitch in the timing system.

It frequently shows the wrong driver in the car, or in some cases, just a blank box.

SvG was in there the whole time.

Both right side corners were impacted on the BMW.

It didn't look like a hard enough hit to damage the chassis, but you never know until you start peeling things away.

Kudos to the organizers, copyright holders and whatnot: Among their youtube videos is a full replay of the top ten shootout.
