Those work in US, thank you!

62 going in the garage

Disc and pad change
If they have to change now already, will they have to change again?

EDIT: That was not a 5 minute stop, so yes, they will have to stop again
EDIT2: Baumann reported brake degradation and they changed them as a precaution
EDIT3: Pit reporter reporting uneven wear, and that is a concern.

98 in garage, alternator problem

RedSquirrel · 28 Jul 2018, 23:01 (Ref:3839660)

Grello curently as slow as a wet week, even with Makowiecki at the wheel.

#114 on fire after a big crash at Eau Rouge.

RedSquirrel · 28 Jul 2018, 23:03 (Ref:3839662)

That's a shunt. Ouch.

TF110 · 28 Jul 2018, 23:03 (Ref:3839663)

Ouch, damn Lexus!

gert · 28 Jul 2018, 23:04 (Ref:3839664)

114 crashed in Eau Rouge. FCY. Car on fire.
Now that's a valid reason for a FCY.

Ortelli seems to have gone off just after Eau Rouge, let's say first half of the Raidillion

That's how I've been watching this race, the onboards on youtube. Saw this happen as I was watching. Car just went straight on.

One cam less for you to watch

gert · 28 Jul 2018, 23:19 (Ref:3839668)

Ouch!

Hope Ortelli is OK.

Meanwhile, Safety Car. 29 pits. 99 too.

Audi #1 is now 2 laps down

gert · 29 Jul 2018, 01:14 (Ref:3839675)

Big accident at Raidillon.
666 Lambo I think.

Red flag, all cars to pitlane - parc ferme conditions.

Contact with a green car. But which one?
a Ferrari, a Lambo, Land?

--

EDIT: The accident happened just after a FCY + Safety Car.
Not saying this would not happened otherwise, but this is a bit more likely when you artificially put all cars together for no good reason.

EDIT2: 98 retired
EDIT3: 51 (Griffin), 53 (Machiels), 31 (Meyrick), 666 (Krebs) have not returned to the pits right now. AFAIK it is Krebs who crashed. There are a few cars at pit out (stopped by the red light). Not sure if that count as PIT or RUN
EDIT4: Funny fact: Christian Krognes (race leader) has a daytime job, with 5 other people he is selling bricks in Norway.

EDIT5: 51 and 53 are now listed as PIT. Just 666 and 31 as RUN
EDIT6: The cars at pit out have been pushed backwards to their pit boxes. That were the 2 Ferrari's (51 and 53)

Articus · 29 Jul 2018, 01:15 (Ref:3839676)

Well this is interesting. How will they regrid the cars? Top 15 in a line?

seanyb505 · 29 Jul 2018, 01:19 (Ref:3839677)

The green car was Land, and we have severely blind commentators.

All in race position?
Either way, it will take a lot of shuffling around since they are all now in pit box order.

That's a bit harsh I think. I have seen the replay a few times and I couldn't tell for sure either. I would have guessed a green Ferrari but I am by no means sure

gert · 29 Jul 2018, 02:00 (Ref:3839682)

Cars will go to the grid, and form up their, rather than form up when going out of the pits

gert · 29 Jul 2018, 02:03 (Ref:3839683)

10 minutes till race restart, all cars to pit out.
Mark Lemmer tells reporter the cars will be called out to pit out in the order they were in before the red flag.
There's now a 10 minute for service, fueling, driver chnange etc...

Articus · 29 Jul 2018, 02:04 (Ref:3839684)

What is taking so long? Did the race director go to Brussels? Are they waiting for concrete to set?

gert · 29 Jul 2018, 02:10 (Ref:3839685)

Apparently it was 666 and 31 (Meyrick). Both drivers were concious and taken to the medical center.
