Forgot how much effort it is to sync rlm and the telly.
Worth it though, i enjiyed listening to rlm alone more than watching with pics with the eurosport telly crew. Martin haven et all are very interesting and knowledgable, but the rlm crowd just exude.passion over the whole thing.

How did you manage to sync it? I've currently got Eurosport via Sky Go and RLM audio via their website, they're quite a way apart.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelin_Le_Mans_C...

Winning team gets a GTE Am entry to the next Le Mans 24hr race.



Side note, there's a Reddit thread titled "24 Hours of Lemans streams", posted by a user called "jj62mtp". May be useful to know...

Currently using the second link down via VLC media player, quality seems fairly decent, and the commentary a lot better than Eurosport.

I'm on free trail via Amazon Prime for Eurosport - settling in and hoping the OH doesnt wake till 2.30 pm (she did a night shift and currently in bed) because she always and i mean always talks a lot at the start and then goes "oh has it started yet whats happening..........."

Eurosport Player/App for me - relented & coughed up as couldn't find a stream during quali.

In the absence of the 'Vettes I'll be cheering for Aston's in GT PRO/GT AM & Toyota for the win.

Got to juggle todays watching w/ lunch out, TDF, early starting session in the pub and West Ham being on the end of an inevitable spanking in the evening rolleyes

Ready for the race...

Dressed appropriately, projector set up, jambon/fromage baguettes for lunch and ready to start 1664.

Enjoy the race everyone. Make the best of a sad situation with not being there.

Let to the party, forgot it was a n this weekend.

Best viewing options for a tightwad?

(Regretting getting rid of Virgin with Eurosport was a mistake...)

Have a look 9 posts up. Didn't post a link as I expect it'd get taken down, but it's easy enough to find the appropriate Reddit page using the info above and Google smile

Hi everyone. Checking in.

I doubt I will break my personal record of 22 hours this year though.

Looking at the photos posted by Lowdrag I think I have to join this group even though home is 20 miles from the circuit.
On the plus side 7 plats is taking bookings this weekend it’s always first come first served on race weekend, oh and there’s no increase in speed checks locally, it’s the one weekend of the year when driving like miss daisy is the only way to go.

Cheers.

Realised how lazy I was being posting that and had a quick flick through the thread. Gone for a free Eurosport trial through the wife’s prime account. Will cancel on Monday

Enjoy the race everyone!

Signing in bit of a tiny field for variety but at least we have a race im sure the gte field will put on a good race. Interesting seeing the hydrogen car on track.
Not sure on the hyper car regs but as long as it brings more variety into the grid is a good thing. Gte seriously needs to be looked at as well.
