run that section of track on no sleep at that time of night at those speeds. then come back to us. he hit the kink and didnt compensate, still his fault but more so a function of LeMans than anything else.

yes audi r18 cockpits FTW!!!

The crash I'm talking about happened in the first hour of the race...
