Sorry Glenn. Marki's correct, you missed it.

The weather was so bad I know that one PHer left before the end of the race.

DAZ

Edited to say, no TV coverage in the UK, however DSF covered it in Germany. At a later date heopefully we'll get a one hour special on an obscure satellite channel if we're lucky.

Yes, there is a rolling start consisting of 3 grids of 70 cars, each 2 minutes apart. Still, 70 cars in a rolling start can get fairly hairy!

True enough that the weather was bad - but it did look like a really exciting race (if you dig that 24h stuff).
