The link at www.radiolemans.com seems to be down... (http://www.autosport.com/rlm/home/index.asp)

Anyone know of any other live steams?

One of life's imponderable questions:

How can WMP be THIS ****?

My god, it is bloody awful.

Of the 24 hours, I'll be lucky to get 2 at this rate!

Ugh, radio stations that force listeners to use WMP should be SHOT!!!

There are so many open and free streaming applications out there!

Well they only broadcast for 48 hours per year (!), so I guess they use the 'easiest' option... still pissing me off though.

Please don't tell me these things...!!

The race started at 3pm, and already we have the Capello Audi out, and the Corvettes and Prodrive Ferraris in an epic struggle...

Forgot, my god man!

I just updated my DirecTiVo so it now holds 108 hours of recordings. So now I can watch the 24 hours at my leisure

Very cool! I don't have access to a channel that is showing it unfortunately, the next update I can see is a 1/2 hour clip at 1.15am.

I got the whole of the Sebring race on a DVD from a friend who I think got it off TiVo or Sky+box or something... Nearly drove people mad watching the real time rerun of the race!

Been listening all the way so far apart from 2 hours I slept...

Wow, WHAT a race!

This confirms my belief that the race, and the 24 hour series should get so much more coverage, how can F1 even hope to compete... don't think I'll be watching the offering from Canada this afternoon.

5 straight wins for Tom Kristensen! A pity about the oil. I think that the McNish squad could have given them a run for their money.

I think the biggest question is: Can anybody stop Audi? Last year they totally dominated under the Bentley name and were victorious in the years prior to that too.

Amazing.
