Yes, the top floors(s) of T18, which were the location of the old TV/radio booths, are now Audi hospitality.

chrisgr31 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Ahhh thanks for the answers. I missed last years race due to the in-laws 50th wedding anniversary. My arguments that I didn't go to the wedding and therefore shouldn't go to the wedding anniversary weren't accepted!

Have lined up the podcast for tomorrow's drive down to Spa (as well, obviously, as Herwig's work on the Marne, which just seemed appropriate).

I downloaded the podcast this morning but I have not had chance to list to it yet. But Sam is a regular guest, I do enjoy his insights.

No it doesn't, nowhere in that press release does Cox actually even mention it. Sam just added the line there.

Autosport had similar article few months ago where the title spoke of full official confirmation and commitment, but when you read what Cox actually said along the PR lines was "we are hoping" ie nothing at all

I only believe when they stop using riddles and half-promises and "plans" but actually come up with actual undeniable confirmation

edit: I see that article is from January and recycle from that same thing, so nothing new

I think MulsanneMike would disagree.

https://twitter.com/mulsannescorner/...06226421231616

I'd go on that, it's the closest we actually get to insider information. Sounds like the project is actually underway, but they keep delaying announcements to build up the PR hype. And the "undeniable confirmation" will probably be announced around Le Mans, all big sportscar announcements center around Le Mans week.

Right, this is probably far enough off-topic, bringing it back on: if there's a Nissan announcement at Le Mans, you can be sure it'll either be on Radio Le Mans or Hindy will be MC-ing it at the track (as he did with the ZEOD reveal last year, I was there).

"According to industry rumor"

If this was any other manufacturer I would get excited but in the midst of all of their PR propaganda it's kinda hard to believe in anything, even otherwise pretty thrustworthy sources.

Anyway I'll of course be glad if they announce it (as long as it doesn't mean their fishing for more desirable rules worked and ACO bended regs for their direction) but until then I'm skeptical, for good reasons

NO.

So clearly there have been some backdoor fighting going on seeing as ACO announced RLM as the english service for the streams at Silverstone (and indeed Silverstone+Spa had that audio) but at ELMS Imola they were replaced by Andrew Marriot's boring solo clarinet. Also even if you could argue that LM having separate feed would mean that RLM simply was never supposed to be part of it is wrong...

My guess is it was always the intention to kindly nerf RLM out of the way in time for the 2015 WEC, but the wrangles over the pay stream accelerated this somewhat.

There's also the strange use of the word "lending" (their apostrophes) to describe the WEC using their content (from that link above)

Then the ****storm happened, some RLM members/affiliates made their feelings known and Neveu suddenly decided that the WEC needed to sound less Mackem....

Thanks for that Graham! (Really, I'm glad to be wrong about this)

I guess this is a change we just won't find out about? It is unusual and there's no information coming, so sorry if this offends you/RLM but people are going to speculate ...

Maybe the ACO wanted RLM on the WEC pay stream but that doesn't fit with the RLM FTA ethos? I dunno.

It's bloody annoying though.
