Been sitting down and watching an hour here or there and then doing other stuff with it still on. Stream I found is high quality with no break ups or other issues. So it came as a complete surprise when commentary during footage of a two car crash was broken into by the Mortal Kombat “Fatality” soundbite.

+12 hours without screwing with anything and suddenly they break in with that. The crash wasn’t very bad even. Seemed they had their finger on the button and got tired of hovering over it.

I’m here but I'm instructing some friends at autocross tomorrow so I'm going to get a few winks before getting up to see the last couple hours. I would be staying up till dawn if this was actually in June...

I’ll take a nap ‘tween now and then. I ten d to nap 1 to 1-1/2 hrs every 6 or so any more. Rarely get 4 hrs at a time. Getting old has it changes. At least I never have to set an alarm clock.

I think I’m going to make it to dawn in Le Mans. My time I’ll probably make it to 1 am and try to get up to watch the last hour  and a half or so.  Would to to watch the whole thing but Sunday plans always work against that.

Cops just broke up the party down the street so there goes my annoyance that would prevent a nap. Hopefully the coffee works!

Yes, I meant watch the sun rise in France.

If the climate trend was opposite what it is today we’d have lost basically every sport for the year that wasn’t played indoors.

There you go, pick a driver and mirror the schedule of their stints.

That sounds like it would either spell the end of the night or keep your eyes wide open.

As long as we don’t spend 3 hours re-welding a manhole cover shut again I should be ok...but we’ll see.

2018, I think? It was maybe 4-5 am here so it pretty much killed me.

I think the race might get good if rain holds off. 13 solid invited teams were replaced in a field that rarely fully fills out. Lots of rich folks not used to having entry to events like this cleared so easily hungry to make the most of it.

Wishing I was sitting o n a vacant VIP patio overlooking the track with a full bar and catering.
