Live timing is showing the #2 Audi ran 12 laps on the last stint. Does Audi have the speed and now mileage?

Can't stand the stuff, and I want to stay up to watch the race, not spend 24 hours on the bog!

Lotus Evoras have been a great surprise. Makes Aston's failure look even worse.

Anyone know how long an Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT2 has run for before? I cant ever remember 1 running for 12 hours without mechanical issues.

DSC reporting Beretta has carbon monoxide poisoning and will take a few extra hours off while Gavin's aircon is stuck on and he's getting a little bit chilly...

...this makes that snowy smiley/picture/thing suddenly quite relevant!

Actually I didn't mean that to be directed to poor Beretta btw... just for the fact that there was a use for the 'pointless' smileys
