As the title says.
Lmp1:I think Porsche on sheer pace but Audi on reliability and strategy.
Lmp2:Jota sport or G drive
Gte pro: I'm hoping the 97 Aston.
Gte am: 98 Aston.

I think Porsche will win this year and if Mark Webber run of bad luck stops he'll take top spot.
Think it'll be close with Aston/Ferrari.

I'm following LMP1 mainly but will keep an eye on GTE Pro.

I'm not sure between Audi and Porsche. I hope Porsche do it, but Audi really have it nailed and have shown their class last year and also in 2015 WEC. My money would probably be on Porsche though if I had to guess - they have a years experience and that thing looked like a proper rocket in a straight line!

I hope Nissan manage more than a few hours...!

Really hope Porsche win, they are the outright win record holders after all! If Audi win, it's still a win for Porsche SE anyway wink

Hard to look past the #7 Audi so far for overall honours.

Porsche are quick, but the tyre usage is worse and reliability is still a bit of a question mark. This means Audi is the favourite over 24 hours.

A Porsche will be on pole though.

Porsche winning would be brilliant, but IMHO if it's a good race I don't mind who wins.
Would like to see the Viper do 24 hours
Always want to see Aston win

I expect Porsche to be on the pole, as their one lap sheer pace is the tops, but I think Audi's superior overall race pace, reliability and strategy will see them prevail.

I'm going to go out on a limb here.. Audi.


24 hours means that the advantage is with the lower stressed engines.

The first year i cant make up my mind nor do i have a preference for overall winner. I think its between the audi and porsche specifically the number 7 Audi and the 17 porsche. I do like the black 919 colours on the 18 car. Not interested in the Toyotas, never have been even with a english champion on board.
I would love to see the Nissan effort finish and mix it with the other P1 cars.

LMP2 i want either the 38 jota sport or 42 Strakka car to win.

GTE, i would love to see the 97 Aston win however i am fond of the 91 991. i am looking forward to seeing the 64 corvette of olivier gavin hopefully run strong and hopefully the 53 viper will make some awsome noise too but i can see it competing for podiums. i really am not fond of the 458, its all down to the noise and they sound st so hopefully not win. The 51 car will be hard to overlook though. Bruni is a master of this class.

Audi but it'd prefer Porsche 17 to. Not bothered about Toyota as I think of them still as Peugeot.

Nissan...








hehe

Seriously, I'd like to see Porsche win, but I can't see past the Audi's at the minute, particularly after the speed they showed at Spa.

I hope Porsche, but feel that Audi may well have the hoodoo on them for the moment, this season. Toyota could pull a surprise but only if things fall their way,i.e. they get loads of luck and the 6 cars (!) ahead of them all develop problems.

LMP2, G-Drive #26 but it's really crowded there in LMP2, loads of decent setups and loads of good drivers.

GT Pro - really tough to call, it could be any of the 3, as long as it's a good battle...! Again I hope Aston - they've got the numbers, but Bruni is looking super handy this season and the Manthey Porsches seem up for it.. Actually I'll revise that, Aston or Porsche, the Fezza is running out of puff.

GT Am - Aston Martin, it's hard to see past them in Am.

Delighted to be proved wrong, all hail the Tandy.

Indeed.

I was concerned after morning warm up when Audi went faster than qualifying.
