The commentary team said it was Johnny O'Connells daughter. I think it was very poorly sung (not that I could do any better).

She did the same last year but they seem to think she is a cute kid so invited her back!

Team LNT just took the lead. Looked so much quicker that the Porsche Spyder on the re-start

Think that is only on while Speed in the US go to NASCAR.

Not sure if this is going to be on until the end of the race but could be worth a look:

Could be on 'till the end as it looks to be a Motors feed smile

Lucky you! It was a great race, some amazing overtaking and I'm glad that none of the drivers involved in the crashes are hurt. Pity the record books will just have it down as yet another Audi win.

Will be interesting to see the outcome of the Highcroft/Acura protests against the Porsche Spyders...

Quite - if anyone has ever doubted the absolute brilliance of Audi as a constructor and race team, and that of Allan McNish as a driver, I believe they must have been well and truly silenced after that. The fact that the car could even take the start is nigh on miraculous. Perfect tactics, perfect performance (save for Dindo's troubled stint) to claw back two laps and win. Incredible.
