That's a bit greedy, locking out the podium should be enough...

2 spins for Conway so far. I see a drive in a bright green LMP2 in his future.

The Porsches. That car is a tire destroyer. It has played out all last year in the WEC races. Porsche losing the races because they lose absurd amounts of time on their second stint on used tires.

This is how Ferrari took the championship last year. Specifically how they won Nurburgring when the Porsches dominated on 1 lap pace.

Multiple drivers in each of the Porsche's
spun off yesterday also.

It's becoming the running gag amongst the team.
Driver says the car is easy to drive, but the track running suggest otherwise.

Well, you might be right.

For those that were not here last night, there were a lot of tail happy Porsches then.

Lotterer on the radio basically saying the car is undrivable. No stability on the rear and very pointy.

Right rear suspension failure for the Signatech Alpine. Sprayed gravel everywhere - Eduardo is going to lose his mind.
