Thankfully I too get FULL 24hr coverage, and can't wait to see the 'vettes back in action, man those cars are awesome.

I'm still confused has Mercedes not been in Le Mans for many years due to the flip accidents a few years back ?

Yesterday here in holland there was the le mans news and there was history in it , they said mercedes was in le mans in the years 30 or 50 or something and then there was that crash where died 79 people , then they did quit and later they came back with sauber but when that car flipped they didn't return either...

Some people dont know that Mark Weber was in that Mercedes that flipt.
(He also never want to talk about it.)

Both the Audi R10's are on the front row, in front of the 2 Pescarolo cars. Should be a ding dong battle between the 2 teams!

I believe Webber had 2 flips in qualifying/testing. After some modifications, they entered the race, but withdrew on the Saturday evening after Dumbreck's crash.

Here's a couple of photos of one of Webbers crashes

There is. It's called NR2003 with the GTP mod

Really enjoying it so far. The #63 Corvette's just had a high-speed spin entering the Porsche Curves, and done his left-front.

Ouch for #37

Yeah, it's for Germany only. RTL apparently have a stream, but I've not tried it.
