This is something we have been screaming for years.

Do they stay live for you for the night coverage? Or, does it end in one hour like it does for us?

No offense taken Ash. Racing is the only sport I bother following. Grand Am the best by far.

They have here in the past. The broadcast ends here in about 1/2 hr. and picks up again 12hrs later our Sunday morning.
We used to get the full 24hrs of LeMans too. I don't think that's happening anymore. The American Football Superbowl hasn't happened yet. That's next weekend.

Nice shots and info on Facebook. I didn't think to look there. Another way to stay on top of things... at least from a Mazdaspeed perspective

Actually, behind the wall now. Out with Suspension & Front end damage.
Nick Ham was at the wheel too. He can make up time.
