Nick needs to look at the weather forecast before he starts betting.

Simmi · 13 Jun 2013, 16:16 (Ref:3262193)

The first preview podcast - GTE - is up now on http://www.radiolemans.com/

Will download and listen to that once we get onto French soil I reckon.

**Aysedasi** · 13 Jun 2013, 18:22 (Ref:3262234)

Fair do's - missed that.

Running through the GTE AM class on RLM at the moment

**Adam43** · 13 Jun 2013, 20:49 (Ref:3262315)

For me, as I've got to know him quite well over the years, Trussers is always the 'voice of Le Mans' as far as I'm concerned!

**Adam43** · 15 Jun 2013, 12:48 (Ref:3263017)

'Voice of reason at Le Mans'

aneesh99 · 16 Jun 2013, 00:17 (Ref:3263216)

'The human calculator'

Simmi · 16 Jun 2013, 09:37 (Ref:3263342)

Trussers is the glue that keeps it all together.

I want to post my thanks to everyone at Radio le Mans for their excellent coverage everywhere they go. I agree that Le 24 Heures du Mans would still be running and popular, and a great experience even without RLM but to be without this additional entertainment and information having had it for so long would definitely now feel wrong. Just to explain how it is for me – last weekend I was listening to the Practise Day on RLM whilst working on my sons car and just the sound of the RLM team (even minus the most excellent Trussers) had me trackside. When I have had the unfortunate situation of not being able to get to Le Mans then any TV coverage is accompanied by RLM commentary as it seems to me to be the best there is. I mean where else could you hear an American completely muller the word Pooogohhhh!

Having recently been to the dark side and paid a fortune to go to a Grand Prix imagine my disappointment that there was no circuit radio commentary so you have to put up with trying to hear something over the trackside PA – with the noise of F1 cars ! So if you cant see a big screen you don’t get to know who is doing what in qually ( a bit like Silverstone WEC qually in fact ;-)).

Clearly with the advances in communication we may in the future have other ways of getting some of this information, but the analysis from Mr Truswell and exuberant commentary from the team will still be an integral part of the Le Mans experience for me. Long may it continue.

**Aysedasi** · 17 Jun 2013, 20:28 (Ref:3263983)

Absolutely!

Tony, James and I are looking forward to seeing you tomorrow and we will do our best to assist your recovery from the dark side and the dastardly machinations of the most holy evil emperor Bernie......;

eps · 17 Jun 2013, 22:40 (Ref:3264048)

Starting to get officially excited now!! Have just downloaded all 4 parts of the RLM previews and the Scrutineering podcast as well. Looking forward to the journey down, on Wednesday, early. Will be able to listen to all of them on the way down

Mal · 18 Jun 2013, 10:17 (Ref:3264275)

via a tweet from RLM I see there is a preview programme on radio 5 live this evening: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b02x93v1

GT6 · 18 Jun 2013, 10:59 (Ref:3264298)

Thank you deggis.

C6R Racing Fan · 22 Jun 2013, 20:54 (Ref:3267434)

It seems like back when I first starting watching LeMans24 Hindy did 20hrs of the race on RLM and now he doesn't do much at all. Guess we're all getting older.

broadrun96 · 22 Jun 2013, 21:27 (Ref:3267481)

Because he does a good long run to the end, believe he comes on in 3 shifts but the middle of the night isn't retained well usually.

whitemr2 · 23 Jun 2013, 15:48 (Ref:3268390)

Last year I complained about the signal of RLM, this year though I must say the signal was very much OK.
Thanks RLM, I enjoyed listening to you.

rdjones · 23 Jun 2013, 20:47 (Ref:3268569)

RLM was fantastic this year, it was a tough race to cover but they did it in very professional manor. Hat's off to the whole team.

Martin90 · 24 Jun 2013, 09:13 (Ref:3268762)

Great job RLM team. Was a pleasure to listen to, as always.

Peat · 24 Jun 2013, 09:27 (Ref:3268766)

Great coverage as per.

The final 15mins of broadcast had me blubbering like a girl. You buggers!

Truckosaurus · 24 Jun 2013, 10:48 (Ref:3268787)

An excellent job from RLM, especially under the difficult circumstances of the race.

One thing we commented on whilst sat listening in the campsite, was the switch from the old "music radio station" format they used to do when there was no racing, to now playing pre-recorded features which sometimes were repeated.
