Anybody worked this ACO ste out yet?

Had the email, done the password reset. Just takes me to a page to buy the access at the normal price.

Best news of the year, Paul Truswell is on Radio le Mans

So glad Trussers is back. Got chills listening to the bed as the coverage fired up!

Logged in to WEC app, looks like no live camera feed until Qualy tonight?

Video starts for FP2 at 13:00 UK time.

Yeah, the Corvettes pulled out a while back due to Covid reasons along with the IMSA 911s.

I know its early in the running but here are my predictions -
LMP1 - Toyota #8
LMP2 - United Autosport #32 (just because I'd love Brundle Jr to get on the top step)
GTE pro - Aston #95
GTE am - Porsche #57 (just so Keating can get the class win they took away from him with his Ford GT)

Same, not a clue where the actual live feed is?!

[TurboRob]

On website click on 'LIVE NOW' or click on event > Le Mans

https://www.fiawec.com/en/race/show/4643

On app it's menu drop down and 'LIVE CAM' (this then pops up with a countdown to Qualy which I assume is when you'll be able to watch the live feed on app)

Listening in to RLM on Amazon via Tunein.

The trick is not to try and pronounce Le Mans as you might expect to (with a french twang) but to put on your best delboy impression and ask for "mans" as in belonging to a man.

In the ACO email, it says you get access from 2pm, so FP2. I'm hoping that's why it doesn't work yet.

+1 thank you to the person that mentioned this.

It looks very odd seeing the place with absolutely nobody there outside of the pit lane.

Eurosport have previously had an advert free, commentary free, , engine sounds on stream of the whole race.
Was perfect to have the on the TV with Radio Le Mans audio on the laptop.

They didn't do it last year. Hope they do this time.
Tried contacting Eurosport to ask them, but they didn't have a clue what I was on about.

There's nothing listed on the Eurosport Player schedule for this.. I fear it's not going to happen.

There is a live and uninterrupted stream for FP2 currently now on the player.. good news!
