24 Hours of Le Mans 2017

Will we have any of the LMP1 cars finish the race?

[erlik]

This looks like LMP1 has hit a dead end ... there will be massive changes or no Lmp1 next year. Anyway #2 may win unless some more problems occur :/

The drama.

If a P2 wins overall, does that count as a privateer?

[etusch]

I hope this not be a reason to stop LMP1. I like these cars. This show us just it need to develop.
There is a hope of me that #8 toyota will win.

[erlik]

There is no way #8 win race but maybe Lmp1 class if #2 hits the problem. Lmp1 became very complicated and expensive. .. Is there a point of having 4 cars (for example) in the class... I hope Lmp1 will continue but I hope it will change to attract more manufacturers / teams / cars

Should be more like LMP2, look how healthy that is this year

[iulian_florea]

Whoah, I wonder what did Toyota do to the goddess of racing... So much effort and still nothing...

This might be the answer:

P1 car back into P1

#8 numbered Toyota at P9. Porsche take the lead. Last 1 hour. Porsche took leader faster than I had guessed.

Main issue seems to be development of a competative and reliable powertrain. You now have a number of credible supercar hybrid engines. Mclaren, Ferrari, Porsche, Audi and soon Mercedes. I think that opens the door for a formula based on stock engines and custom chassis.

Something needs to happen, But with most of the consumer cars moving in that direction I think Le mans cannot turn back on hybrid technology. Otherwise it ends up being like the Daytona prototypes, fun racing, but push rods in 2017, really?

Dive bomb by the Aston just gave it to the Vette I think.

[flynfrog]

vette has a puncture

Congrats to the 919 team way to never give up.
