Enjoyed the day and the freedom to wander around the track and use the photo slots

The P1s entering Becketts were a sight to see and the noise of the Astons turned heads every time.

Back up at Sillystone for the race tomorrow, looking forward to a great race.

After looking at the GTE results for WEC what has happened to Aston Martin over the winter, they were no where yesterday.
The Astons have had a 15mm ride height advantage removed. Thisseems tohave affected them a lot.

No really?!


Allthough I'm routing for Toyota, I myself can't appreciate this vertical fender idea. I agree with you on the low nose section though. Never liked them raised nosecones.

Does anyone know if ELMS are also using the Wing & new GP start/finish line ? Or are they over in the old pits and using that start/finish ? Just trying to plan my visit for later on.

ELMS is in the old paddock. F3 is located behind the old pits, but they use the new pit lane when they run

Actually think the new Rebellion will be the nicest looking but haven't seen its final spec.

No live stream on FIA site for the session, even for pay members?

I just presumed that since there were pictures for the RLM guys and that WEC are asking us to pay for information, that we might get something other than live timing for this session.

Performances and results in these first two races mean nothing in GTE, they're all sandbagging and lobbying BoP for Le Mans.

No, that is only LMP1. In GTE they will continue to performance balance the models on race-by-race basis (also separate BoP tests in Germany)

You're right. Missed the word "GTE", guess I need another coffee

So Porsche is running a low downforce package? Isn't it bad if you have to overtake in corners?
