It's a pretty good site, I particularly like the rolling countdown to the 24hrs start - shame I can;t get this as a screensaver!

Also like the circuit map, with the race car (indicated by a dot) showing it's current speed as it laps. Surely the fastest bit can't be the first part of the Mulsanne though?

Yes,

It is a good site but I'm either being stupid or the counter is wrong!

At 16:00 today, it said 8 days 22 hours.

So with the French time difference, that's 3 o'clock on Sunday afternoon - or can somebody put me out of my misery?!

I don't see why you are having difficulties with the site but then again I am not using Opera, try this link www.teambentley.com/2002/nusite.html
