    Google search on "nuerburgring technical defect" doesn't give much hope - much talk of DNF's due to technical defects.

        A slow day at the track is better than any day in the office.

            There total race time has increased (ie crossed timing line) since the time kwottro reported the defekt and indeed now they are marked as in a pitstop. I'll turn the radio back on see if they mention something.

                Listed on this page amongst others - http://adac.24h-rennen.de/live/ticker/browse/1.html

                The info on this page re: the teams seems to be a mix of DNF's, stop/go penalties, mentions of car problems and then getting going again etc - sort of a casualty list not definitive list of retirements as such!

                      Pretty sure that was a regualtion stop. Tried to 'print screen' them leaving the pits but the video won't show up.

                          apparently the stoppage wasn't under Parc Ferme conditions, and there's a driver on the radio at the moment commenting that some teams changed 'everything' gearboxes, driveshafts etc.

                              Glad they are still in it!

                                I'm pretty sure you can change everything except the engine block and chassis.
                                Imagination is more important than knowledge.
