Discussion
, so if anyone wants them let me know.

For anyone not able to get there, Radio le Mans will be covering all the action live. Just go to www.radiolemans.com and click Listen Live. Think they even have the pit crew they had a le Mans this year (or some of them)
They will also be on the track PA and AM radio (not sure of frequency) for the LMS action. Support series will be covered by circuit commentators.

Looks as if Pew Joe are pulling out all the stops. Just got the release below which says they are even supporting Radio le Mans. Good on them.
''Radio Show Limited, the people behind Radio Le Mans, has teamed up with Peugeot UK to bring listeners even closer to the action at the deciding round of the Le Mans Series, the Autosport 1000km at Silverstone this weekend. The RadioLeMans.com team will be broadcasting every session of the event live, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
RSL, who also broadcast live coverage of the American Le Mans Series and other major events including 24 hour races at Le Mans, Silverstone and the Nurburgring, have added the highly competitive Le Mans Series in Europe to their portfolio this year.
The importance of up to the minute information from the pits cannot be underestimated says RSL’s John Hindhaugh. “In long sportscar races the action in the pits is often just as important as what happens on the track and the support we have from Peugeot UK will ensure that listeners don’t miss any of it.”
The pair of Peugeot ‘Lions’ in the pit lane have impressive credentials;
Nick Daman is one of an elite few who have reported live for TV from an F1 pit lane. He spent 6 years working for F1 Digital, Bernie Ecclestone's TV channel. In addition to his duties in the pits he was the disembodied voice asking the questions of the top three drivers in the post qualifying and post race TV press conferences. Nick has been part of the team at the Le Mans 24 Hours for the last two years and, this season, has reported from pit lane on the LMS rounds at Spa and the Nurburgring.
Joe Bradley has been pounding pit lanes for more than 10 years. A regular at the 24 Hours in France, Joe was a founder member of the team that has been covering the American Le Mans Series for over a decade. Joe brings a unique skill set to the reporting team. Currently the Manager for Robertshaw Racing, the Chevrolet BTCC team, he is used to the cut and thrust of tactics and pit lane scrambles. Formerly a Police Officer as you would expect his 'interview' technique is exemplary and thorough.
Peugeot UK have thousands of supporters coming to Silverstone to cheer on the LMS race cars, and there is also an opportunity for them to try out the road-going cousins of the racing cars, as Kevin Jones, Public Relations Manager for Peugeot UK explains: “The clean diesel HDi technology that has been so successful in our race cars is already benefiting the products in our range. We have a special area by Luffield at Silverstone where customers can experience the virtues of our fuel-efficient, high-quality product range.”
The revolutionary, diesel powered, Peugeot 908 HDi racers have dominated the series so far this season and clearly hope to secure the teams’, drivers’ and manufacturers’ titles at Silverstone, but as Kevin points out, it’s still really close. “We lead the manufactures’ battle by 5 points and it’s even tighter in the drivers’ championships where we have a 2 point advantage. It should make for a compelling race.”
According to Ian Sedgwick, Manager – Public Relations for Peugeot UK, with so many Peugeot supporters expected to show up at Silverstone, the partnership with Radio Show Limited was a natural choice. “Radio is the only way to keep up with the action in a long race and in the same way that when you think diesel you think Peugeot, if it is sports car coverage then it has to be the RadioLeMans.com team.”
The radio broadcast can be heard around the Silverstone Circuit on 1602 AM but if you can’t get to the track then you can tune in at www.radiolemans.com where you will also find the broadcast schedule and an extensive free archive of sportscar action including another chance to hear the Peugeot wins at Barcelona, Monza, Spa and the dominating 1-2 finish at the Nurburgring.''
