I admit I am out of the loop this year but looking forward to seeing how much I can watch this year.

I have all 24 hours being recorded on my TV; will watch in snippets each night for the next week or so.

Quite a bit more darkness than normal this year!

...if you are speaking of the Rebellion, in person it looked absolutely stunning (at a previous race), and the attention to detail on "all the bits" was just incredible.

I am guessing that 59 competitors and 8 retiements are both unprecedented low numbers. Few amateurs, I’d guess?

They were dreadful. No gap information apart from sporadically and you could go 20 minutes without seeing the order in some categories. Really bad. Would it have been so hard to have a ticker along the bottom of the screen?

It wouldn't have been bad if they had flipped through each category every minute or so, but there were times the scoring column sat on GT AM for 30 minutes. I realize LMP1 wasn't super competitive, but they literally went hours without showing the LMP1 scoring/gaps.

I hope the new cars next year end up delivering on the promise of more competition.

Totally Agree.... The info graphics were awful.
