    I wonder in cases like this if they are going to rebuild the car after a crash like this (or harder) or replace it with a new one.

    488s have a large subframe where engine is mounted, about 1/3 of a complete frame.
    That can be replaced if like a well known 430GT was severely damaged front and rear and main structure damaged: new chassis
    I have seen 458s getting complete new rear subframe and even new chassis (with s/n of the wrecked car)

    We will probably see more 488s at the Nürburgring this or next season..(and hopefully in the 24 Hours)

    If you want to win Daytona: 4 car Pro entry otherwise I would not loan out my works drivers to a single Pro entry.

    Sebring, Le Mans....F really need 4 cars but it wont happen.

    Prepare yourself for a BMW, Porsche, Ford show

    Three “works” cars for Le Mans: 51, 52 & 71
    52 takes over Risi’s pro entry.
    Let’s see what happens in June.

    Will Ferrari support Rinaldi/WTM with support for the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring this year?
    Audi Sport will support FOUR LMS GT3’s!

    I like the color of the “52” car for Le Mans.
    Wouldn’t it be nice to have a plain red one with no sponsoring, just racing numbers.
    Impossible nowadays.
