Thanks, these lap things are always interesting.

Good to see Angelelli seems to still be on the pace by the charts as well. He looked solid when we saw him on the TV but it's good to see it backed up by the data.

Also nice to see Curran doing well in the Whelen car. His fastest was maybe a half second off the other guys, but he had a good tight spread of laps alongside the others.

Not sure anyone would have called Stroll outdoing both Priaulx and Wurz in the #01 though.

I used my laptop, running Windows 10 and Firefox, with an RJ45 plugged in. Occasionally it buffered and occasionally it froze but most of the time it was fine.

Surprised Firefox works for you on Windows 10. It was dodgy with the flash players on 7. i was forced to update to 10 and I could barely get FF to work at all.

Works fine for me on 7.

They've managed to eliminate the plugin problems with Flash player and Shockwave that plagued 7 and XP. I had the option to upgrade from 7 to 10 and went with it. I've now got Win 10 Pro, 64 bit and it works fine. It's great for catch up TV, like BBC iplayer.

I won't be able to go to Le Mans this year so this will be the alternative.

In case it hasn't been brought up, this was the first win for a French constructor at Daytona.

I gave up in FF after loving it. Much prefer Chrome with blockers. Streams from imsa worked flawlessly, but sounds like that was the case for everyone! Hooray!

Hadn't even thought about that. Cool!

But laptops don't have nice 32 inch screens! :P

Well, while we're that far off-topic...

Change/add two registry entries (save as, then double click and keep hitting ok, feel free to inspect, it's based on this knowledge base entry) and your w7/8 will stop annoying you with w10.

I'll show myself out

32 inches is enough for me!

(and still better than any dumb ol' laptop monitor)

And incidentally, I loaded the stream, plugged the HDMI from my laptop to TV and NEVER ONCE had to reload the stream. I fell out from 230-530 and the stream was still there. I think I never had a glitch or even a frozen screen for a good 14 hours.

A laptop monitor, is only as good as its graphics card.

I still use it and fantastic for DOS based games.

Anyway, getting the thread back on track, this year's race was superb and has thrown up a lot of debate, including laptop screens.

Jamey is an incredible photog.

I wish I had even a quarter of his talent.

Those are awesome. Just had the chance to look through. Thanks for posting!

Say what we want about the lights, I think this is badass!

Thank you, Jamey Price.

I think it was you that posted that panoramic shot.
That was definitely high on the scale.

These were quite amazing borderline fine art.

That was all through the magic of the iPhone.
