This has restored my faith in so many things .... as in so many issues related to ESM, Pipo Derani is the answer.

Comically bad camera work and producing on this thing the announcers to see in the background the change for the league potentially happening and the producers can't get the camera on it they follow some GT cars instead

For sure, this has happened the last couple years I think. A win post Le Mans has been rather rare. Explanation this year is more simple turbos are better than the non turbos.

#55 is going to have to really stretch the fuel to get to the end on one more stop, assuming it remains green...

Goosens spins, then forgets how a car works, drives across the track and is stuck right now. Probably a FCY coming.

Brings Derani a little closer as well. But if it comes down to pit stop speed the DP's will have the advantage

As for Goossens: bring back Valiante. Surely he can't be doing a worse job?

Valiente was not that great either. VisitFlorida team needs to find someone who is less mistake prone.

Less prone to driving into things like P2 cars. Valiente can stay out too.

I guess this is the first race where the new traction control has really made a difference and made LMPC cars faster?
