Final results are in - Nissan's factory team in LMP1 retired 2 cars and one didn't manage to qualify.

Too bad. Better luck at the next races and next year.

Webber could have won Le Mans were it not for his car-mates penalty! I guess 2nd isn't bad....story of Webbers life

gj to Hulkenberg and his car of LeMans rookies though



as for the GTR,

I know it's been mentioned in the thread before, I'd like to see how it goes head to head with Toyota, despite it not being totally up to snuff or fully ready compared to the other manufacturers.

Considering Toyota places 1 & 2 this year.....I think the Nissan would not do so well :P

The TS040 has proven to be the best machine since the TS010.

Give Nissan another season to work things out and possibly implement the AWD/Hybrid systems to the LMP1 platform and I know it will be up there for sure. Also looking forward to seeing Ford in there as well....and now talks of a Chevy LMP1 program.....if so next season will be amazing.

Would be great to see more manufacturers contending for the top title!
