The amount of ads on Eurosport is annoying.
At least they dont last 3 or 4 minutes I suppose
You'd think as a motorsport forum we would see a few more people posting here. ???? disappointing.
It's never overly busy for Le Mans, few people seem to actually sit down and watch it. I really enjoy it though, I missed a lot of last year's race because I was actually competing but I think that the year before I managed 18 hours of it. Doubt I'll watch that much this year though, I'll dip out to watch the hockey and get some sleep (partly because I'm soft and partly because I'm going to Glastonbury later in the week and don't want to be tired before I get there!)Quote:

Devastating news, the thought never crossed my mind that he was even badly injured.
RIP Allan Simonsen, condolences to his family and friends. :(

Made even worse as the early news was seemly positive.
Cant My first live motorsport death for a long time that I have had the misfortune to see. A trully terrible incident.
One driver interviewed on Eurosport seemed to suggest the car went through the barrier and bounced off a tree behind it. (That is only what I thought I heard him saying - not official). If so that is a bizzare freak of an accident, afterall these barriers are usually so strong.
Lets wait for official word though.
