Coffee and breakfast made. Did I miss much?
We could play who’s drinking the coolest coffee, but it would be a short game. |

Thoughts so far:
- Agreed, those coffee tins are pretty sweet. I feel like after they're empty I would need to go buy power steering fluid and acetone and other garage fluids just to have reason to store them. - I feel like I've seen more blankets being used when a car comes back from a shunt. Toyota I get, but these are P2 cars. Maybe teams are nervous to show that they are actually running an Oreca? - Also noticed night vision being used to locate incidents during night practice. Don't remember that from previous years unless I just missed it - Racing Team Netherlands having a rough practice session |

Some of the am drivers seem to be easily distracted as far as braking points are concerned today….

What did Toyota Nr. 7 do, stopping after Arnage??
The way he is going now, is it possible, that he did a intentional ctrl-alt-del?? |

In his place I'd also assume that Porsche's not stopping before it crosses the road. That was bizarre. Also yesterday a P2 mechanic put his hand and eventually bullied a cameraman away from the car that was being repaired ON THE PITLANE, not even in the garage. How is that even allowed?! |

As I say, think the danger wasn’t as great as he perceived it. I saw that incident in the pit lane yesterday too and thought it was a bit off…. |

My son’s opinion on Glick so far. They are either really good or really bad. Toyota into Arnage. And another at Mulsanne. Funny use of the roundabout. |

Has anybody notice that apart from the breaking issues that Toyota had earlier during the year, the main issue that they have had during the years is that the car just stops working ( electric or something that it isn’t structural ) it happened at Monza recently other then that Toyota driver don’t make much mistakes.
I know that it has to do with the current tech system ( hybrid) but I don’t record Porsche or Audi having these kinds of issues with their cars. |
