That is a very well organized and well run team.

There were a few comments as to which team had the best pit stops this year: Corvette and BMW were mentioned, and they are both great and maybe the best. However, I agree with you that Flying Lizards had great strategy and also great pit stops. It seems like there were many races this year where they didn't have the fastest car but through excellent strategy and brilliant pit work emerged from a yellow flag pit stop in first place and once that Porsche is ahead of you, it is hard to pass.
A few observations on the race: Nice to see the EMS Ferrari get on the podium, seems they finally got a handle on the car and can expect good results for next year. It was nice to see Peugeot and Corvette win their respective classes. Also, a big congratulations to RLM on winning both Team and Manufacturer (for BMW) Championships. A very professional organization aptly lead by Mr. Rahal.
