That's actually what cause world champion to die as it was a plan to make car manufacturer leave endurance to go to F1...So that's a completely different approach as now we are talking about extending the use of a F1 engine to endurance.
That have already been done as the V6 turbo that powered '76 Alpine-Renault Le Mans winning car was a sort of derivative of the yellow tea pot...
By the way, should I remember everyone that an LMP car, especially in Le Mans config have a ridiculous drag coefficient compared to F1 cars?
BoP sucks!
Oak ftw!

Well it was discussed a while ago on Endurance-info sourcing a german website. I would try to find that back but usually I look at this forum to have fun reading all the false rumours going on and makes me laugh.
Regulations have changed so the 908 is no longer eligible...Bruno Famin, Peugeot Sport boss and former 908 programm technical director said that Peugeot might be back in some international championship in 2017, especially with the help of Carlos Tavares, new PSA president and the one that relauched Alpine at renault.
That could be WRC or WEC imo. In the same interview Famin said that he felt that Le Mans was tasting unfinished for him.

Epic braking zone
Congratz guys ! strong pace in both GT1 & GT2!
Nice pace from you guys as well ! Was quite impressed by you guys, could have been faster but no rush as we got strategics advantage but still that pace was pretty much within a tenth or two to the maximum i could do.
That was 19:23 italian time but 18:23 UTC 
Back in season 3 spdo (FXR & XRR) and genR showed that the restrictions were equal as spdo FXR was only few points off before withdrawing (due to lack of activity) and that the championship was decided in the final race...hum...I mean straight.
Perez is just lazy...he isn't professionnal at all, he can't really help a team to improve like Lewis was and he isn't as fast as the brit as well.
Yes the McLaren this year wasn't the best car, but at the end of the day it misses what ... 0.5s to be at the top. Perez isn't able to reach the last few tenths, neither is Button. McLaren line up was missing someone like that and had only one driver that was able to give a good feedback to his engineers in order to know which way to go in order to improve the car and/or get the maximum from it. Perez is definitely not that man.
Yeah F1 isn't about being fast.
Actually that's not only cq, but polish as Adam was also quite laggy...I suspect something happened to their internet provider. Anyway issue due to lag aren't really driver's fault, but a driver that know he is lagging should overtake carefully.
Session of Incident : Race
Lap AND MPR timecode of incident : GT1 lap 61, about 1h36
Car(s) involved: 07 54
Location of Incident (Track Map Here):On the left hander before sc2 known as T11.
Description : car 07 send car 54 into the gravel costing it about a lap. Some lag was involved but car 07 should have been aware of that and be more careful.

Well that SC basically changed the result in both class but that's racing after all, sometimes you gain sometimes you lose
2014 DPs will actually be more expensive to buy and run than P2 ^^ Interesting

Shocked ! He was such a nice guy, really sad news...
TDFI? Hopefully that stands for Turbo Direct Fuel Injection?
Amazing ! Plus Nicky is definitely a good guy !

Nah only a turbo engine
That video game is making the pacejka model working in real time without any problem into several professional driver in the loop simulator. Those simulator aren't using awesome computer btw. Anyway pacejka magic formula are right only for a defined temperature/pressure which is an important limitation.
Enjoy :

Pacejka 5.2 magic equations that decribe the tyre as a mechanical system. Huge limitation is that it's not a thermo-mechanic model.
That model developed by Michelin looks awesome : http://www.ipg.de/index.php?id=tametire&L=2
But price is also awesome...

From my own experience, no.
Fastest GT2 drivers always go through corners faster than mid field GT1, brake later and have better exit but always some drivers thinking they are Lewis Hamilton try to pass them into the corners. That's generally fine but there are some tracks where it's not. I think everyone fighting in that first stint in GT300 in SGTS would agree with me...
I'm ok to have challenges but I'm not ok for a multiclass fest. Actually Fern Bay or South City are imo much better for multiclass as everyone is paying attention to everyone else. At KY2R nobody is that careful as it is a fast track and stupid GT1 drivers try to make some move in the last chicane or between t1 and t3 where it is just not possible. Trying to pass slower class on outside at some corners where you can do it (but still challenging) is awesome, but trying something like that when there is only one line is just stupidness.
That's my point, then ofc admins decide what they want to do with their league, and I will enjoy that race whatever the track they choose. Just giving my 2 cents as I think it's worth sharing it.
