Not sure what happened but there was clearly some damage to the front end. Now the engine's died out on the circuit so it looks like the end of the race for Rollcentre. Very disappointing weekend for the Radicals!

Now the second place car is in the garage. I bet everyone wishes they had the reliability of the Pesarolo. Perhaps the Creation Team will end up on the podium?

Nick

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 13:45 (Ref:1717590)

So the Creation is now third in class and only a lap behind the ASM Racing LMP2 car. Live streaming for me is great today except for no on track commentary.

Familiar sight this season, the 13 Courage in the garage. Looks like it's on the verge of yet another retirement.

Swiss Spirit have lost first and second gears. They still have a good lead over Creation but the battle for second in the LMP1 championship is very close.

Bernard Bram · 24 Sep 2006, 13:51 (Ref:1717598)

It's buffering from time to time, nothing serious. I wish they would improve on the quality. Keep the small window, but increase the bitrate.

Wee · 24 Sep 2006, 13:55 (Ref:1717603)

If they come back here next year, perhaps just a couple of corners could be straightened out...evil track. We're (#24) familiar with winning by attrition, but THIS is madness.

Marcel ten Caat · 24 Sep 2006, 13:57 (Ref:1717605)

Binnie Motorsports off into the tyrewall.

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 13:58 (Ref:1717606)

You spoke too soon; its just gone off backwards and only just stopped before the barriers.

Nick

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 14:12 (Ref:1717614)

Blimey, the fight for 10th and 11th almost takes off the lead Pescarolo as it comes out of the pits.

Nick

**Bentley03** · 24 Sep 2006, 14:33 (Ref:1717628)

Drama at Swiss Spirit. Gearbox and starter motor problems. The contenders for 2nd in LMP1 championship are running 3rd/4th/5th overall!

Bernard Bram · 24 Sep 2006, 14:44 (Ref:1717639)

What a battle between the Team Modena Aston and the Corvette.

That was amazing, as was the previous battle between the Modena AM and the C5-R.

Question: as things stand, Creation and Chamberlain both finish the season on 20 points, equal second in LMP1. How would the auto entry for Le Mans be decided between these two?

Bernard Bram · 24 Sep 2006, 14:59 (Ref:1717651)

Sugden into the wall, Spyker gets a shot at the podium. Another safety car out.

**Bentley03** · 24 Sep 2006, 15:03 (Ref:1717654)

Should be the final stop for everyone under the safety car.

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 15:27 (Ref:1717671)

Its looking good for ASM Racing to score the best finish for a LMP2 this season, second overall.

Nick

**Bentley03** · 24 Sep 2006, 15:32 (Ref:1717674)

So, Uncle Hugh has just answered my earlier question about the auto entry for Le Mans. As things stand, Creation would get the entry because of their second place at Nurburgring. Chamberlain need to pass the Creation to get that spot.

**Bentley03** · 24 Sep 2006, 15:52 (Ref:1717687)

Disaster for RML, the car's stopped out on the circuit with five minutes to go!

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 15:53 (Ref:1717688)

I can hardly believe it, no wonder the team are gutted.

Nick

Nick49 · 24 Sep 2006, 15:54 (Ref:1717690)

Pesca. 5 races, 5 wins. They've got the Audi touch.

Does Jarama draw decent crowds for other forms of racing?

Crowd looks decent on TV, about 15-20,000.

Potential in this part of the world.

It was great to see them win 5 of 5 races but none vs. audi so its not that big of a deal.i hope audi will race them next year.The only time this year they did race them they lost.(24 hours of lemans)

If they sought the gearbox out for next seaason and find even more speed, they'll be very strong.

Creation need to change to the larger wheels, I've not followed them closely enough to know if it's cost them a race win this season, but it can't have helped.
