2011 Poster

I see that details of the 2011 poster have been released by the ACO:

http://www.lemans.org/en/news/Poster...aled_2994.html

They even plan a second version, then a third aimed specifically at the British. Let's hope they do a better job of translation. The english wording that accompanies this poster on their website reads "Another second, another trill" Just watch the animation on the right.

I can't say that I've noticed much birdsong during the 24 hours.....

Hmmmm. Slightly better than last year for me, but I'd rather have a poster that concentrated entirely on the race, not other fripperies.....


Yes I'd noticed the 'Another second, another trill' too!

m1fcf should be qualifying in the top 10 on the gridm1fcf should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
so, is no one going to point out that it is the wrong Audi in this years poster? Doesn't this year's Audi have a roof?

I know there will probably be other AudiR15s at the race, but on past performance it has usually been the two works teams who appear.

That is without doubt the worst poster for Le mans I have seen in 28 years of attending the race, wrong Audi, references to a propietry budgie food (is this the first product placement) and if the dunlop bridge is in the back ground why are the cars going the wrong way down the pit straight.

Surely the ACO could do better
GT6 is online now

How long have we known that the Audi was to be a coupe? Couldn't they at least have waited to get the Audi right?

There are going to be other versions, they say - I'm sure Audi will have a word to persuade them to use the right car.......
