Lol shock horror red flag when you put rich men with average talent in prototypes in a qualifying session at Daytona, someone explain to me why this is a hood idea?
Someone has to pay the billsSportscars wouldn't exist without those funding teams and driving themselves, its nothing new.
And half an hour later Nick Tandy did exactly the same thing, in the factory 963, so its hardly the prerogative of pay drivers
However, it looks like it's going to be a great race, and season...bring it on.

Not sure trucko, I would imagine that gets you everything and catchup and on demand I hope.
Will be buying in the next few days so will let you know, it is almost worth it for Le Mans coverage alone! Anything is better than ad every 10 minutes Eurotrash
I would hope they would try and capitalise on the new season by making more stuff free, first hour of race or something, try and get you hooked!
A new era for the sport with new manufacturers, and it's behind a paywall - yet the IMSA is free. Could/should be far better from the ACO; their promotion needs to be better.....Will be buying in the next few days so will let you know, it is almost worth it for Le Mans coverage alone!

A decent Sebring 12h so far, halfway through.. although I do struggle with overly long safety car periods in US racing.
They’re absolutely nuts, half an hour for a couple of bits of bodywork debris earlier Interesting qualifying session - and a 'weirdly slow' off for Hartley at Eau Rouge/Raidillon on cold tyres....
Pole for the #51 Ferrari which was later pinged for supposedly going off track, giving it to Kobayashi in the Toyota.
As ever, LMP2 looks super competitive, United's Blomqvist taking pole.

2024 WEC calendar was announced this morning:
https://www.fia.com/news/wec-2024-calendar-expands...
As expected Sebring is dropped and replaced later in the season by CoTA, Imola replaces Monza, and the season is bookended by Qatar and Bahrain.
Sadly, no UK round at Silverstone - but if they won't put the money up, no round.

Further news; a possible Toyota hydrogen hypercar, plus Alpine.
