Yeah, I know. I'm asking too much but maybe, luckily enough, somebody might have had the effort
STL or STEP work for you?

Thanks Zonk for posting the times.

I hope it will be as interesting as Silverstone, where everybody pushed from lap 1 onwards, regardless of the 6 hours :D

Lets see if the R-One will be there and if it will be more or less competitive ;)

Rebellion will run only one R-One this weekend - car #13, while #12 will be the old Lola B12/60.

WEC 2014 is shaping up nicely. I may be inclined to shell out 20 € for the races.

I agree it looks pretty nice, brilliant livery!
Interstingly low sidepods though, and without directly comparing images side by side I think they are probably the lowest.

In what energy category are they competing anyway?

They are competing in LMP1-L.

Are you saying it works without payment. Th last time I tried for Silverstone it did not work for me until I paid. So I have now decided to pay for the season. It should be cheaper if I want to see all the races.
