It Has Begun

The oldest motorsports race in the world has begun its 100th running. For one week the Isle of Mann TT will probably dominate this site. The only week of the year you will see motorcycles here. Good luck and safety to all the riders.

LMES Race 2: 1000KM Of Valencia

Overall & LMP1: At the top is the #8 Peugeot, running laps two seconds faster than anybody else except Arena. Charouz, Swiss Spirit and Rollcentre took 2nd-4th. Pescarolo only got 5th & 6th. Surprising. The other Peu and the Arena both had problems and finished at the bottom.

LMP2: Quifel won in their AER Lola. Saulnier took second with their AER Courage. Buichladdich took third with their AER Radical. Nol Del Bello took fourth with their AER Courage. Kruse took fifth with their Judd Pescarolo. RML came in sixth with their AER MG Lola. Barazi Epsilon took seventh with their Zytek powered Zytek. Wow. AER rules in the LMES LMP2. Three Judds, a Zytek, and a Dome Mader broke down. Only two non-AER cars finished over 200 laps.


GT1: I am so excited! The Team Oreca Saleen finished tenth overall and first in GT1! Their new paint job, above, is awesome. It was on the same lap as second and third in LMP2. Twelfth overall and second in GT1 was the Racing Box Saleen, below! It was two laps back. Third was AMR Larbre in their Aston Martin DBR9 a lap back from Racing Box, then Luc Alphand's COrvette C6.R was five laps back. Awesome finishes for Saleen!


GT2: Felbermayr-Proton put Porsche back on top, but close behind were the Virgo and Scudderia Ferraris one lap back. Farnbacher finished on the same lap as the Ferraris but took fourth. Spyker didn't do so well, but they did better than Panoz.
