1000km Spa - Page 2

It will be intriguing to see how the GT1 cars go, and if they can even last 1,000km without a problem, nevermind 24 hours. It's nice to see GT1 with at least some support outside of FIA GT again.

I thought audi was bringing all 3 of their cars and drive lineups...

I think the Sacred Monster and Albers should adapt quite quickly but as for the others it might be a challenge.

If Audi win Spa and then Silverstone and with double points from Paul Ricard - they could very well win LMS without doing the other races!

Tim the Grey · 22 Apr 2010, 09:01 (Ref:2677743)

I suspect LMS Silverstone entry could look a bit thin, as LMIC may be the only thing left to fight over, LMS being Audis to lose...

I hope not, but at least I don't have far to go, to get there!

Did Albers race for Joest in that car ?

Aston Martin will be at Silverstone, Drayson also, but Peugeot didn´t confirmed. Peugeot will do Petit and probably the Asin race at China, and i'll bet that if they go to China, they will do Silverstone as well.

No beacause a team must do 4 races to be on the classification at the end of the season. That's a new rule. So Audi has to race at Budapest or Portimao if they want to be on the standings.

No. Peugeot Sport has confirmed Silverstone and China because this is strong market for Peugeot. Petit Le Mans is for the moment a question mark.

Pretty much!!

L.P.

Victor_RO · 22 Apr 2010, 17:45 (Ref:2677970)

Yeah, if they want to keep the full waiver. So perhaps that's why they're giving the #15 car to the Level 5 guys and will probably move Bakkerud to #14 and push Albers out.

Tom908V12 · 22 Apr 2010, 19:39 (Ref:2678028)

Can't wait for the LMP1 battle on 9th may

It wasn't where it was supposed to be. Like on the official LMS list it was between Peugeot works and Team Oreca

Corrected last night.

Porsche917K · 23 Apr 2010, 06:05 (Ref:2678231)

Ok good deal. I thought I was losing it.

maybe,but most of Chinese dislike Peugeot because they bring a lot of old models to China,such as 307(408 now,still no 308) and 206(207-like 206plus),most of Chinese perfer Germany car especially VW,Audi,BMW and Mercedes

911targa · 23 Apr 2010, 11:06 (Ref:2678357)

still no Modena Ferrari and BMS Porsche,i doubt whether they can race at LM24 this year

is a pity they're not on the list, but i suspect they'll have no problem finding pay drivers to run at LM.

Would probably be in Porsche's interest if the BMS car was to drop out and allow the second Felbermeyer car in though. Sorry, different discussion........

yes,but i perfer to see the Italian Porsche run at LM24 this year,they did a superb job at 24h Spa.i do have a strong desire to see Sr.Felbermayr race with Lieb and Liez; Henzler,Ragingger line up with BMS confirmed Matteo Malucelli,a very experienced GT driver.One gentle Porsche(#75)is enough.2nd Proton entry should be another gentle car,so i think Porsche won't replace a professional entry with a gentlemans entry.but the BMS car might prepared by another team(their own car was a 2007-built RSR with 2008 updates and a 2009spec 4.0L engine),just my opinion.
sorry for my off-topic dicussion

Victor_RO · 23 Apr 2010, 13:22 (Ref:2678426)

Felbermayr Jr. is the confirmed driver in #77, not his old man.

David Morton · 23 Apr 2010, 17:22 (Ref:2678585)

Good afternoon Gentlemen. My name is Dave Morton and I just joined 10 tenths this afternoon. I will be going to Spa, arriving on Tuesday evening (4th) and departing again following Monday. Travelling Norfolk line to Dunkirque 1000 sailing on Tuesday.
