    I was thinking about this. How those engines endure such a burden is mesmerising.

    So WEC is more related to real road use compared with F1.
    The latter is mainly a show right now dominated by financial interests.

    The 8 came in early....that's strange...unless they're trying to take advantage of the slow zone?

    IMSA sprint race left to go…

    looks like the early morning has been relatively calm. I went to bed as the sun was coming up in France (11:30ish east coast time) and catching up now

    at about the 4 hour mark (!) I saw a few GM exec types in a very intense conversation with a guy wearing an Xtrac shirt. wonder if they knew they had a problem and it took that long to fail
