We had a tough time at Spa.
Going off in Free Practice, a small electrical issue at the start and then a failed / intermittent fail on the low pressure fuel pump really put us to the test. Ended up with a DNF after 10.5 hours. I was gutted. |

Amongst the gradually diminishing COTA entry, the Risi cars have vanished. Big shame

No Risi on the entry list anymore. Huge bummer and blow to interest in this race. No Ferraris at all. I don't even think Scuderia Praha is there.

It is found in this format : AMRVANTAGE GT3-XXX http://tentenths.com/forum/showthread.php?t=143190 Many thanks for your help |

Honestly, looking through the entry and quali results.. it's a step down in quality and interest from previous years. Less high quality pro lineups, no Vortex or RJN Nissan etc. Still an interesting field and I'll follow the race as much as possible.
I think it's GRT's year to take an overall 24 hour victory. Ineichens are safe and Engelhart/Bortolloti is as good a combo as there is in GT3 racing. |

Creventic isn't very interested in all-pro entries. They are focused on making privateers happy.
By the way, Bernd Schneider and Norberto Fontana are sharing a GT4. |

The race isn't meant to be interesting to us (we viewers are just the added bonus). The race is interesting to the wealthy driver, as that is the Creventic business model. The Dubai 24 Hours is the equivalent to the Le Mans 24 Hours for the enthusiastic driver who'll never have the skill to get a Le Mans drive.
When there were problems of GT3 cars lapping slower cars, and the Professional drivers complaining, Creventics answer was they would cut GT3 cars before cutting the small teams. They are smart and know their business. |

Have been checking in and out of the live stream for the duration and I really can't understand anyone who doesn't find it interesting.
Into the last 3hrs and while Black Falcon has a reasonable lead they are by no means home and hosed. #Its endurance is a good description for what is an intriguing event. Thank heavens for the Gents who finance this sort of racing and those who live stream it so we have something to watch. |

Another great race, managed to see around 16 hours of it. With half an hour to go there was 3 seconds between 2nd and 3rd o/a. Good example of what a bit of pressure can do to an Am driver when the Lambo spun with 10 minutes to go! Felt a bit sorry for the local guy who bankrolls the team but that's racing...

A bit of a disaster for the WRT 777 car with 20 mins to go.
The gearbox being stuck in gear would have been bad enough, but then Bin Saud Al Saud found himself beached on an errant turn marker board. Had to be towed off by the track marshals. Was a solid 4th but finished 7th o/a. |

First statistics for the first classes available now:
http://www.gt-eins.de/Berichte2018/2...ml#Statistiken Obvoiusly Audi even had a small advantage this year, but was not able to make use of it. |

The next 2 Creventic events will provide an interesting dynamic with prototypes entered into the race with the traditional GT series. Still would not past the GT winner taking the race overall. I think the only cars that are significantly faster are 2 Ginetta G57's but when driving by Am's they could have reliability problems. We've seen this over the years at Thunderhill, where the Flying Lizard Audi still wins every year against them.

So the Silverstone 12 and 24 hours is now under a week away. Have to say from looking at the entries, which I think are 23 and 19 cars respectively, I am disappointed there aren't more, particularly for the 12 hours. I thought there would be at least 30, 40 or 50 entries, but perhaps Silverstone in March is too early!
Having looked at the schedule, apparently on the Saturday both the 12h and 24h cars will be on the track together. But when the 12h cars finish their race how will they get back safely to pit lane whilst the 24h cars are still racing. Normally when a race finishes cars slow down dramatically, but this surely can't be allowed. |
