Massive shunt at Le Mans practice.
The reasons for Audi driver Loic Duval's car-destroying accident in the Porsche Curves during practice for this weekend's Le Mans 24 Hours are still unknown.
Duval crashed yesterday afternoon when his Audi R18 e-tron quattro became airborne and slammed into the debris fencing ahead of the final right-hander in the Porsche Curves.
Allan McNish, who works with Audi's drivers following his retirement from the cockpit, said: "What happened is speculation at the moment, and we are not into speculation. "We need to speak to Loic in detail when the time is right and do a proper analysis."
McNish stressed that the other two R18s were "checked thoroughly for technical problems" before returning to the track when practice restarted approximately 50 minutes after the accident.
There could be similarities between Duval's accident and that which befell then-Peugeot driver Marc Gene at the Le Mans test day in 2008. He got on the grass exiting the second part of the double left in the Porsche Curves and took off.
The distinctive shark fin of LMP1 machinery was introduced for 2011 in an attempt to prevent cars taking off after a spate of incidents at the end of the 2000s.
Duval was kept in hospital in the city of Le Mans overnight for observation and is expected to be released this afternoon.
McNish confirmed that Duval, who escaped from the accident with cuts and bruises, never lost consciousness. The Frenchman is not being allowed to take part in the race, a decision that was taken by the FIA medical delegate and race organizer the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's doctors after consultation with medical staff at the hospital.
ACO sporting manager Vincent Beaumesnil said: "Loic is OK, but after a big shock like that he would not have been ready to drive today [in qualifying]. He needs to rest."
The #1 Audi, which Duval was due to share with Tom Kristensen and Lucas di Grassi, is being built up around a new monocoque. McNish reported that at 8:30am this morning, the car "looked to be in exactly the same stage of preparation as the other two cars."
Audi has been given dispensation by the race stewards to recall test and reserve driver Gene from the Jota Sport Zytek LMP2 team and place him alongside Kristensen and di Grassi in the #1 car.
Jota has brought in Oliver Turvey, who raced with the team in last year's European Le Mans Series, to drive its Zytek-Nissan Z11SN with Harry Tincknell and Simon Dolan.
The FIA-spec debris fencing seriously damaged by the Audi was not replaced after Duval's accident for the remainder of practice and then qualifying. Beaumesnil explained that it was not mandatory at this point of the circuit because its primary purpose was to protect the public (and this area is not a spectator zone). It will be replaced in time for when qualifying resumes at 7:00 p.m. local time tonight.

Just under 8 minutes left.
Looking like an Audi #1 and #2 win.
I dozed off when there was 6 hrs 30 min left and it was
1) Audi - Gene
2) Porsche - Weber
Can't believe how far back Porsche is now.

I thought this would be Toyota's year to win it. I think the biggest reason Audi won again is because they had three cars. Every factory LMP1 car hit problems during the race, so Audi was able to spread the risk with three cars.

Thanks guys-she actually died a week ago today. My wife and I got the news she wasn't doing well as we were walking to the car from the Canadian GP. Got in the car, drove like a wild man to Buffalo (5.5 hrs) and made it in time to see her for about an hour before she passed away.

Well, not quite an LM race car...but, here's a cockpit view of a lap around the track in an A8 L...
Neat. What an experience to go through the track...although, some of those sections...if you're not careful, yow.

^ I did drive my Renault Safrane rental through Monaco couple decades ago at night. Some parts are not part of public roads (swimming pool), so I had to improvise in some sections. Can only imagine how hard it is to do at 3 times the speed I drove it.

Right now, if we can go to Germany in a couple years, going around in the Ring Taxi probably is my best bet?

I was in the back of a 300E from Como to Milano once going 140 on the Autostrada-that was pretty cool, esp. since the driver only had 1 hand on the wheel.

Audi hits the wall, makes it to the pits, they bolt on new front/rear ends, tires, re-fuel, duct tape the rest and off it goes out again 4 minutes later. Nice!

Porsche wins P1 and P2. Not that the Porsche prototype was a better car than the Audi that got P3, but the Porsche team had a much better strategy than the Audi LMP1 category teams. Sadly, the FWD Nismo still needs tons of work to belong to that race.
Excellent effort by the No. 64 Corvette Racing C7.R team, driven by Oliver Gavin, Tommy Milner and Jordan Taylor beating the Ferrari Italia in the LM GTE Pro field. It was truly spectacular to watch that fight to the end. Nice going Chevy

I thought it was a very good race. Very competitive throughout the field. I've given Nissan a lot of flak, but the GT-R LM added some spice.
