morningview66 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the gridmorningview66 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Just seen on the timing that the 36 DB Motorsport car of Den Booer/Lemeret/van Hooydonck is shown as a PRO car on the timings whereas on the entry it was registered as Pro-Am. Does anyone know which is correct.

Also this car has sponsorship from Petronas Lubricants and DHL, thats a sponsor package any F1 team would be jealous of. Any idea how they pulled this off??

they've been supporters of endurance racing in Belgium for a long while now; DHL specific liveries always adorn the Spa 24, it's become almost a tradition. Pretty sure it's Pro-Am too, but a good lineup.

Anyone know if qualy is being streamed live?

Seems like they're not streaming the quali sessions.

Hopefully the stream will be working for the race.

From tweets doesn't sound like there is a stream in the press centre either. Shame because it's been an incident-packed session by all accounts.

It's a Gold-Silver-Silver line-up, don't know if that's PRO or PRO AM.
And Lemeret is sponsored by DHL and Van Hooydonk by Petronas.

according to the live timing, rossi in Q2 finished 2nd marked the best timelap in 1.48.9; but i don't know why, in Q3 his friend uccio didn't run, wasting a really good qualfying!

Aaarrgh... It has nothing to do with BoP, Marc VDS (and Vita4One and DB Motorsport) said a 100 times that the BMW would struggle in Monza because of the small engine not suiting the long straights...

Yes but the BMW has also struggled in GT1, soo maybe it has taken a hit with BOP this year, then again it could just aswell be the tracks as you say or the tyers or driver especially in GT1s case.

not struggling at the 'Ring or BritishGT though and I doubt those BoPs are drastically different. Pity the promised stream never arrived, but all forgiven so long as it works tomorrow.

Anyone got the final grid positions yet or are the stewards still making their way though the piles of incident reports first?

It's here : http://www.blancpain-endurance-serie...d%20Qualifying

Oh, didn't see there were only 32 cars listed, it may not be the final grid.

Thankyou, that certainly sounds like a lot of off track action for many cars.
