Le Mans 24 Hours This Weekend

Last article I read in a magazine in the mid nineties stated at 1 point that at that time Ducati couldn’t win an endurance race as their engines were too fragile for long races.

 

In bsb even today the clutches will only last one race start. Not good really considering the clutches in the beamers for example will do most of the season

 

Fuck me what a race, Guintoli is a weapon, I wish he had his UK number plate on Suzuki at La Man lol

 

I also recall that when Ducati were all dominant in WSBK that the Big 4 wanted to introduce a limit on how many engines could be used per season per bike.

 

Such a class rider!

 

Yart is out !! Replacing engine, such a shame

 

Cylinder failed, probably dropped valved, engine is out, trying to fix it now

 

Running out of fuel is such a joke.

The guy said in interview, my manager told me once the dash light comes on you have exactly 1 lap. Well, apparently no, he managed to do 0.9 of lap

 

Ducati has the best looking fairings !

 

The curse of the Ducati fuel light

 

So loving it! Brings back memories of going to bed at 3am and then getting up in the morning and it's all going on! Bringing back great memories and have done Le Mans (both car and bike) a few times!

 

Not so successful for Ducati, unfortunately!

 

What are you talking about? In 11th place, after crashing, dropping down to 40th, and running out of fuel TWICE.

 

BMW is running pretty good too

 

But it is still running

which is something

 

Soon to be 9th!

 

Shame no fans and mayhem.
