    That was a great race. I watched every second that SPEED showed live, and the rest online. Amazing.

    I wish i could have seen more of the race, but my streaming online feed died at about 6am their time. The chunk that i did see, however, was brilliant. HUGE congrats to Peugeot for taking the win and de-throning Audi. I would have liked to see the Aston LMPs do better, but I can't really complain about 4th place.

    @fwa2500: Considering the fuel consumption disadvantage that the Astons had versus the diesel cars, I thought they did rather well.

    I know this is petty, but hey, that's the kind of guy I am. I hate the Peugeot on looks alone. It looks like a reworked 2001 Lola or something. It's ugly, awkward and uninspiring compared to the modern, cut-bodied and shark-finned Audi and the sharp and lithe Astons. The ACO should add a rule that if you're going to have the quiet drony diesel, you have to make the car look awesome.


    The 905 that Peugeot won with in 1994 looked like it had dropped straight onto the racetrack from space. The 908 looks like it dropped straight on the racetrack from 1994.

    A fantastic race, and a spectacular formation finish from Peugeot Squadron. Since then, I'v already changed my wallpaper. :)



    Congrats to all the winners, and a hearty, hearty well done to all those in the race, EXCEPT for that Lambo, the Queen of Garage.

    @Mobius_1 now with a Star in Freakonomics!: Maybe we should tell the Japanese Lamborghini Owners Club that while wonderful machines, Lambos are, well, not exactly racing cars. I was at Le Mans in 2007 and the very same Lambo died on the very same lap-the first. I didn't even get to see it run.

    I was shocked to see Patrick Dempsey raced a GT2 F430 in this race, and did rather well.


    I kind of blew my mind when I saw it. The lead actor in a very, ahem, effeminate hospital show is driving in one of the greatest motorsports events in history? Arguably one of the manliest pursuits in the world?


    My mind was so thoroughly blown I couldn't come up with any snarky comments.

    @SCROGGS!!: I'm not saying he's anywhere close to the Newmans and the McQueens of the Hollywood-LeMans interface, but just the duality of his emasculating show compared to his manliest of hobbies, endurance racing, is quite the contrast.

    Awright people, now that everybody's favorite french-bashing president has gone back to Crawford, TX, can we just move on and stop recycling he and his cronies' french jokes?

    They're not original, not funny and frankly often base on ignorant, uninformed assumptions.

    I don't go around making fun of your retards in Tennessee, your morbidly obese population, the fact that most of you can't place Australia on a map or believe in creationism or any of that ignorant shit. So please knock it off.

    The problem with Peugeot (and will also be for Aston Martin) is that they thought they could still be competitive with a 10 year old (or more) design base. So basically they're playin slot cars while Audi goes racing.

    This is like some weird swingers party. The Germans seem to be dominating with the French being submissive and the Japanese late to the party. The Italians and Americans are there, but generally staying out of the way and just going with the flow.
