World Endurance Championship 2014

The porsches were developed specifically for the le mans circuit. They are expected to be quick there.

also this ^

However, reliability / fiabilité of the cars overall are the key to a successful outcome a la Sarthe

Go number 20!

Lead car dramas.....

[Bodella]

[tweety bird]

[Missileman]

just turned on the foxtel, and what do you know, chin is limping around the track, Que Sera, Sera...

[tweety bird]

number 20 is out of the race.

[tweety bird]

number 14 porsche is out as well...

[dontyellpl0x]

Yeah pretty disappointing.. As it has been said already, its a bloody good effort to bring a brand new to a big race like this for the first time and be right up there for the most of it.

Not sure who I want to win now haha

22hrs into the 24hr race.

apparently the combustion engine let go. I'm yet to read reports but that's what was said on the broadcast.

[Ants]

Nooooooooooo.....

So many feels for Mark and Porsche.

From second to having engine issues and missing out on a podium

Maybe next year a la Sarthe though and with a bit more endurance practice Porsche and the Webb will be back to get that win

But we all know which manufacturer is also making a return next year in LMP1

[tweety bird]

Audi earned that IMO.

Well done to them.

[Ants]

Agree.

Well done

I just wanted the chin to have been on the podium

[tweety bird]

Which is bs!

[Ants]

It's not F1 and even F1 has a decent summer break to

But I agree this is a weeee bit too long

You could easily throw in another event say 6hrs of Bathurst

[JAS-25T]

Webber was within seconds of 1st place when he got in for that final stint

What an epic event.

was gutted to see car 20 fall over in the last few hours. But good to see they got 14 out for the last lap.

Truly an epic event. $100 ticket makes Bernie look lile the thief he is. Definitely coming back...next time will need to work it into another cool car and track tour
