This year with Fisichella and Vilander back with AF CORSE for LeMans, I see no other way any other team can beat this team...AF CORSE will be running the new 488 next season, I just hope we dont see them struggle while its developed, the 458 struggled a couple of seasons when it took the reigns from the 430. The engineers in Maranellodo their homework better than the rest. LeMans in 2013 was a disaster for the #51, the ACO had the 458 so restricted it was so far off the pace and had no chance to win...

Gimmi may be the most successful driver in WEC, but the 24 hours of Le Mans is a whole different beast. Yes, they are a favorite, for sure, but no one is unbeatable at Le Mans, with as many variables as there are. Plus you can never count out Corvette Racing!
