Maybe they should make Amato Ferrari the head of the Scuderia ?

 

Lol

 

I know, but Toyota took 37 kgs.

But we won't go there ...

 

Glad Chuck was there too

 

I was only there Wednesday. I never cried tears of joy for any victory before wow nothing can top this!!!!

 

Porsche is the big disappointment for this race.
963 is a beautiful car.
Usually
Germans car are reliable.
Italians unreliable.
LOL.

I don’t speak about the Peugeot either..

 

Well, technically Ferrari isn't running the Hypercar team. it's AF Corsa, an independent team.

 

C8 is a fantastic race car.
Road version gave hard time to a gt3 in a recent comparo (French magazine.)

 

I think the Peugeot had a shot at it. Mistakes cost them.

 

Not only, their reliability was dreadful the last 4 hours..

 

I think there is just so much connection with Sports car racing.
A real team sport
Been great to share it with everybody here.

 

My bad, my inner sportscar racing spirit getting out of hand, carry on ........great win Ferrari !!!

 

I guess the last time the Polish anthem was played at a major race was when Robert Kubica won his GP.

 

Wow. Congrats to Team Ferrari.

Now put some of those engineers into the F1 team!

 

Well done to our American friends too !

 

GM's direction is all electric. No way they will support even a hybrid race program.

 

Yes, I was surprised myself.
I didn't expect Porsche to win, but they had a lot of problems, and several drivers' faults, which didn't help.
Another surprise (good this one) was how good the Cadillacs fared.
Toyota lost his faster car through no fault of its own; I blame the organisers for it.
I think if Kobayashi's car had still been at the end, it could have been a different story

 

why? The show is dreadful in comparison.

They were talking about how the 499 project is a mix of AFCorse AND F1 people...

 

Indeed.
One could say the same for the 499p number 50..

 

Fact is AF corse demonstrated to be a very professional organization numerous times.
They won at their first attempt today..
Congrats to them..

 

What a great race! Plenty of drama and of course Ferrari was going to make us bite our nails at the end.....but regardless, the first Ferrari overall in my lifetime!

I am speechless other than to say FORZA FERRARI!!!

And it was nice to hear the Star Spangled Banner for Team Corvette and the C8, well done mates.

 

Toyota must be proud of their race.
Being second after a legendary race like today is a lot more valuable than winning when you are the only one really competing..

 

Since the overall Ferrari Legend has just been enhanced and restored in the modern era, it has probably just gained 10%.
