While it is not difficult to find the entries...

The Rumor Is: Peug, and others, have protested the Audi R15 nose area design.  Fact? (help)

Is this whining or what? Teach me. Please.

Entries: Does anyone think Sea-Bass leads Peug. to a win? Me think no.

Yes, the nose design of the Audi has been questioned by Peugeot and Aston Martin.  http://www.mulsannescorner.com/newsmarch09.html

Last year Peugeot seemed to approach Le Mans as a F1 race and not an endurance race.  Even at Petit some of their tactics were questioned by the commentators, but at Sebring they were a little more agressive with their tactics and that kept them in the hunt with the faster R15.  The Peugeot is also in its third season, while the R15 is the second generation of Audi design.

Sea-bass is only good at racing on Ovals and shit, go fast, turn left! Even his unexperienced teammate at Torro rosso F1 is outpacing him everytime!

As for a complete list, try: www.planetlemans.com

Sea-bass better hope for good results the next 2 races - really bad that his mate is out-gunning him. Else, he is making croissants inthe F1 paddock.

On another thought, let's all just be thankful that "whiner girl", aka Danika, never enters LM or ALMS.... unless it is on a broom.  Smiley

Andretti-Green actually gave her a shot two years ago w/their Acura P2 program, but she just plain didn't have the stamina for endurance racing.  She was removed from the car for what were politically politely referred to as 'safety reasons'.

yeah, safety of the other drivers...  Grin

Per her press agent, "She was not slow, the steering wheel (of the Acura) interfeared with her mid-body-duct causing a flapping noise. This lead to an excessive vibration that threatened Earth's orbit. We had to release her."

Aston Martin is writting off another Lola-Aston due to damage during testing.  The 2008 Charouz car will be used with the updated bodywork.

Looks like they have, but not because of the challenge from Aston Martin and Peugeot.  Haven't heard the results of that.

I was reading where the upstart U.S. F1 team was considering Danika and Scott (slow) Speed as their driving team, I guess winning is way down on the list of things they want to accomplish........... Anyone watch the Monaco GP? What a joke I think the top 10 finished as they started.........  F1 is thinking about capping the teams money at 60 mil a piece and one would think that their series would be at bit more exciting with that amount of coin going into many of the cars............ and they say NASCAR's boring, WTF?
