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? Last edited by Rodger Davies; 14 Apr 2012 at 10:38. |

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.

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!
BTW the mvds bmw is more than a second off the pace, bop hits again |

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... |

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. Last edited by Nic_O; 14 Apr 2012 at 14:05. |

I keep hearing about an incident packed quali session, I read what happened to Bert Longin, can anyone else shed any light on what else happened?
