Today ended up being a great day for athletes chasing their 7th championship :d

 

Congrats to the Bucs. Tampa Bay takes the NHL, NFL and LA takes the MLB, NBA.

Watching a feed with US commentators but no commercials. Pretty great watching the action in the stadium during the breaks including some big screen action.

Yeah, but did you get see collimation of the Bud Light CU :whistle:

Not a fan of that Lombardi CGI or the version of the star-spangled banner (but the again I'm generally not a fan of the general "look at me" kind of performances of a national anthem)

Yeah, not the best version of anthem. The Lombardi CGI was cool.

Another beautiful poem from the pride of LA Amanda Gorman. The coin has been flipped, let’s get this game going.

The television production level is insane this year. Graphics, video quality, effects all looking good.

We’re nearing game time. Beautiful rendition of “Life Every Voice” just played around the stadium. Hoping we’re treated to a great game today.

Nikita Mazepin won't be allowed to race under the :RUS flag during the next two seasons based on the CAS verdict.

 

I really hope this flag nonsense ends after the 2022, how long they can pretend Russia doesn't exist as a country? They busted people in cc skiing, biathlon and athletics and yet here in F1 we can't have a Russian driver. What's gonna happen with the Russian Grand Prix at Sochi? Will that be taken away or forced to run as "Neutral Athletes" Grand Prix or what?

 

I'm shocked the :RUS flag hasn't been banned from TO yet :p

It would be funny if we got rid of the flag, but only in threads about the Olympics and World Championships :p

Terrible TV direction who missed the late change for 2nd place (#48 Cadillac passed #55 Mazda).

No, they showed that.

 

I was pulling for the #48, so I can be happy with that change.

The leader in LMP3 is up by 2 laps over second place, and 8 laps over third place. I’d say this class needs some further development before they add it to future races...

GTD leaders come together around the 4 hours to go mark. Ferrari worse off than the Mercedes. It’s a shame because that was a great battle they had going.

Something brought out the caution with around 13:45:00 left on the clock.
 

Close racing off the restart.

Just past the 8 hour mark, and we’ve still got 6 cars on the lead lap. 
 

Pretty close races in GTLM and GTD still. 

LMP2 class has thinned quite a bit. 3 of 10 cars left on the lead lap. 
 

LMP3 cars continue to get in the way of literally every other class on track.

Audi ditched Formula E (funny how that is viewed second-rate now that it has lost the "new age" aura) and confirmed they will be back at LeMans in 2022. If they really wanted to build a DPi that would be a true swing for the fences! :p

Under the new regs, DPi cars (which I think will be known as LMDH or something in the near future) will be eligible to race in the hypercar class and vice versa.

Commentators seem to be implying that Audi has a LMDH program potentially in the works...

 

Peugeot is returning to Le Mans, perhaps Audi’s feeling nostalgic :d

I know that. Tell that to IMSA though. Ligier & Oreca should be in LMP2 and LMP3 should be scraped alltogether IMO.

 

Bad news for @heywoodu #29 Racing Nederland is out and Rinus VeeKay didn't even turn a single lap. They crashed on the oil laid by #20 and suffered terminal gearbox problem.

The LMP3 class is fine for developmental driving, so perhaps it should stay in the developmental series. 
 

Renger van der Zande still in the hunt for the overall though.

Ligier should take the battle to Oreca in LMP2 and now it looks like both can dominate each class without much competition.

The Dallara entered by Cetilar was pretty quick in qualification, but had some technical problems towards the end. 
 

If they manage to improve the reliability, I wouldn’t count out the Dallara in LMP2.

LMP3 is the new PC. Meh. Endurance racing doesn't need a "junior" class like that. It's just field filler whom nobody really cares about.

It’s not like there’s a need for a privateer/amateur class in prototype either, since there’s already LMP2.
