well, the laps they did last have changed, but no gap or lap indications, so does this mean we're under way then?

If so then it's Audi-5 from Dome-8, from Courage-2 and Lister-4.

So, it's raining then? Panoz and Intersport seem to have made a lousy start. Did they start from the pits maybe?

i'm not sure, they seem to be lapping as fast now as they were in Quali.

But the pace is pretty eratic, ranging anywhere between 1m646 and 1m50. I reckon Pescarolo is having the best race so far though, lapping quite regularly faster than Audi Japan.

why do you think they're lapping so inconsistently? Audi and RFH just did 1m50s, Pescarolo 1m48....

maybe track is drying, and some cars have intermediates and some have rain tyres.

Yeah, but Audi for instance has been doing lap times something like this 1m47, 1m48, 1m50, 1m47, 1m50, 1m46 etc..... Almost like they're all dicing with one another, it's surely too early to be lapping trafiic isn't it?

It seems to be quite a massive cloud system over France today according to this map. It will probably be an all wet race...
