Really happy to see Colin Braun leading the timesheets. Must feel great for him to get the seat in the top class and demonstrate he deserved it.

I missed it earlier, new graphics package is great. They could keep the roundel but integrated in the column better to take up less space. And yes, moving graphics to the actual edge is so much better, no widescreen users can stuff it.

I don't know if they still do it but used to be a big Scouting event on the infield for the Roar so decent crowds. But that looks even more full

On that R24 fans&Campers group I'm part of, a lot of regulars on the group were saying the the amount of scouts this year was insane. Some said the oval turn 3 & 4 tent grounds were almost full.

Seem that, so far, the Acura is the fastest so far but in the wet the Porsche has it handled. The time postings show. The real race should happen just after dawn, as the track starts to dry out.

Pretty cool to see Marciello in an LMP2 car for the race. Given how many seats could be available in the top class over the next few years, maybe AMG have made a mistake...

Some major red flagging as well. Farano has properly bashed it against the tyres.

Edit - Poordad also off at T6.

Bourdais is lucky that they've called the green that early. Everyone straight out except the #10.

Blomqvist pulls it out - 1:34.031 for pole. Nasr 1:34.114, Taylor down to third.

Does the infield section where Tandy went off seem bumpier this year?
