It says so on all the big sites, so it must be true.

where?

In that announcement back then it said only 24h of Le Mans will have webstream (altough it didn't say LMS round would NOT have ). I'm doubtful

Crash.net has it here:
http://www.crash.net/motorspor ... returns_to_eurosport.html

Official LMS site has it here:
http://www.lemans-series.com/e ... il_actualite.php?news=191

Planet LeMans also has, as does motorsport.com, but I can't seem to dig up the news items right now.

Quote from X-Ter :

I've found ABC 7, ABC 10 and ABC 23, but none of the seems connected to ESPN (That owns ABC right?) and none of them are very pretty to watch.
Eursosport will broadcast over the internet. It says so on all the big sites, so it must be true. But ever since Yahoo took over Eurosport, everything is so bleeding hard to find.

Actually Disney owns both ESPN and ABC

That would explain why they are so hard to find for free :mad:

It doesn't say anywhere that LMS rounds would have webstreams

Cant find it either, i thought the plan was 30 mins at the start on Euro, then the rest on Motors TV?

Sorry, mixed together Le Mans 24 and Le Mans series for a while.
But this german page says full streaming coverage on Eurosport.
http://de.eurosport.yahoo.com/ ... 3/live-streams-woche.html
Just look at the schedule far down. Problem is that none of the other Eurosport sites has the same schedule. So is the stream in German only? And if so, is the stream only available for Germans?

No, MotorsTV shows the LMS rounds just like before. Full race except the occasional breaks when they show some something else between the race.

Yes, and that link I already gave...

We'll see it on sunday if it's true and if it works

.

It's only a practice... but look what car is on 4th

http://www.lemans-series.com/d ... lone/results/lmsfree1.htm

Practice 2 looks quite different, obviously P1 grid shaped up now. But still good prove the RS Spyder is fast, even with the ACO's real weight rules.

http://www.lemans-series.com/d ... lone/results/lmsfree2.htm

Hmm thought the spyder was LMP2, or is it in LMP1 with the ACO rules?


Nvm, tis a glitch with the FP1 results, all the cars are LMP1 >.<

Quote from (-Mark-) :

Yup.

There are no ALMS rules, it complys with the ACO rules but has not applied the weight changes. Only difference to ALMS is that P1 is 900 kg and P2 825, while in ALMS it's 925 kg and 800 kg (last year 775 kg).

STREAM! \/

it has 10+ min lag, but better than nothing. Race is on. Started 20 mins ago I guess.

What do I use to watch the stream?

Windows Media Player/Media Player Classic/VLC etc. Anything that can play mms stream.

WMP says it can't play it

"Windows Media Player cannot connect to the server. The server name may be incorrect or the server is busy. Try again later."

odd

same here

Race over, 1. Luhr 2. Dumas.

Couple of nice passes but Dyson crashed in the end and ruined... yellow took too much time and only 3 mins was left. Anti-climax.

LMS:

Qual: http://www.lemans-series.com/d ... celone/results/lmsent.pdf

Lola-Aston seems to have good pace, was even better in the 3rd free practice. The car has still not much testing kilometres so this is good sign. I expect it to be give hard time for the diesels in the later rounds this year.

What was the Dumas overtake on Luhr while been held up by a backmarker thingy? Don't they have blue flags over there

Never even thought about this... I don't know but I guess not in that case. That would make no point, the both GT class cars would under blue flags all the time then. GT classes has right to race too.

Last year there was lots of controversy when LMP cars made too crazy pass moves when lapping the GT cars and they got often penalties.

I haven't seen the replay, but yes, we do use blue flags. However, if two or more cars of the same class are fighting for position, they're not going to step out of the way for the big boys. They're racing, too. Also, at a tight street course it can be hard to pass, so sometimes people get held up.

Won't work for me, just like the stream from yesterday.

Well, that's because the race is long over (ended about 10 mins after I posted)... Remember, this was the stream for the European LeMans Series...

Stream was very enjoyable, no annoying commentators, just pure racing sound... I like it best that way...
