I admit that it's wishful thinking, but maybe when the grid is oversubscribed, manufacturers put their foot down on these types of pointless changes? I would like to hope because the balance seems to be somewhat decent in FIA GT3 sanctioned series. But swallowing one's pride might be too much for the ACO.

It was there testing for 2 days alongside a few hypercars running the new led position panels. Can't find any videos though.

I read on an X post that GT3 in WEC for 2025 will be switching from orange to green number panels. I think that is a great move!

I agree. Will be easier to spot from a distance

Total rubbish. I can’t believe they are doing that. They should be orange. Is it a pro class? No. So not green. Why they never made them paint the wing mirrors orange too I’ll never know. If they can’t be orange tor whatever reason then pink. Obviously. Typical ACO. I’m not watching. Anyone want to buy a television?

It's mostly useful from a TV graphics/live timing point of view. Red and orange are too similar.

Aren't GTD (non pro) cars in IMSA using the green? Makes sense, much easier to tell apart from from red than orange.... unless you're color blind.

GT3: ACO style

That is a good point. Red and green! It’ll be like watching Wales Ireland at rugby for the colour blind.

It’s a joke.
