24 Hours of Le Mans - 2021

[Nacho Z]

I can't believe that there has been no threads or mention of this year's running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.  I'm a little under the weather so I've been watching most of the day.  Anyone else tuned in?

Been watching all of it but have to watch Indycars and then I'll go back to Le Mans coverage.

Watched it off and on all day. Like TonyK, I switched over to watch the Indycar race. Got it back on now.

Like I said I’m currently a little under the weather and have been couch bound so I’ve had it on pretty much continuously.  As of this post there is 42 minutes left of the race.  I love these cars.  I currently have a WIP thread going for the Spirit of America Porsche 956.

Reading viewer tweets?   Really?

I saw an hour or two's worth last night.  I had to go to bed just after the sun was coming up at the track.  :-)  I have no idea who might have won.

 

I have one or two TV broadcasts from the '90s I taped on VHS.  One incident involved a car going off the track straight up.

You're likely thinking of the Mercedes "blow over" in 1999.  Check this out-action at 1:05.

Was there a similar flip earlier in the decade?  1999 seems later than what I might expect.
