    Live timing for qualifying appears to be cumulative.

    That is (if I'm reading it right) the ranking and best times carry over from one session to the next as though there wasn't a break.

    Watching live stream at the moment via livetv.sx . Requires registration but it's free. Stream is consistent, though not high resolution.

    I have a cousin who asked me to stop sending interesting rally onboard video links to her because she suffers mildly from motion sickness and every one of them was setting it off.

    Fox Sports 1 is running live Lemans right now due to a rain delay on the Truck race.

    Current time 8:15PM, Denver. Pretty cool night action.

    :)
