[s-cars] Audi R10 Wins LeMans!

Ummm, when you've been in the woods for the last week (literally) and you
get home Sunday evening and plan to watch the race Monday it is a spoiler to
have the results announced in a subject line.  Normally such annoucements
are in the body of a message and the subject reads "spoilers inside" at
least for results posted immediately after an event.

Please do explain how you could have a spoiler WITHOUT the race being over?
If you can  we need to get together and start a "book", I'll split it 50/50
with you ;)

No harm done, it's not the end of the World or anything, but since racing is
rarely discussed on the list and it is a "listserve" that sends messages to
your  email inbox regardless I thought it was safe to check my email Bob. I
don't usually have people emailing me the result of races in a subject line
and I follow ALOT of racing both 2 & 4 wheel!
