You can listen to all the races on Radio LeMans Extra feed link on the right hand side.

It's on the Need for Speed website because they are sponsoring the broadcast.

BTW it's on today as well, Classic Endurance race on at the moment - they sound very nice!

[y2blade]

thank you for sharing your pics too

it was our first time at a endurance race, I usually get bored at race meetings with all the hanging around between races but none of that with a Endurance race, always something going on and our suit overlooked the start finish area so we could see the cars pitting for driver changes and repairs etc

we loved it and look forward to the next one

Good race it was, still close at the end with 4 cars on the lead lap! JCB's stint at the start was awesome. Was standing at Maggots and he was visibly faster.

I went yesterday. First visit to Silverstone and really enjoyed it. I do enjoy endurance racing and it was great to see Nigel Mansell driving again.
Here are a few of my pictures.

You are quite right of course, I was getting frustrated editing the message to get thumbsnap images into [thumb] tags. Doh

fantastic I agree, great to see Nigel Mansell again...you were lucky to even see mansell out of the car as his table was 3 deep during the signing session on sunday and couldnt get anywhere near him
great to see he still draws a crowd


my rubbish "oh quick grab the camera" moment of him coming around after his little kiss on track


and passing under us on his roll down the pit lane on the next lap to get it patched-up
