Interesting that SRO is looking to revitalize GT1 in a ways. Was this not the orignial idea of the hypercars for WEC? So not a bad idea by SRO to show what it can really be. Because the hypercars in WEC to me has been a huge let down. But if anybody can nail the looks it will be Ferrari. So I agree lets wait and see what that car ends up looking like. Same for the Audi and Porsche LMDH cars for that matter.
Glorified trackday though isn't it? Its not a race.

#63 got screwed once more by race control.
There's nobody that can tell for sure if the cars actually touched or not.

No wonder there are lots of rumors of FFF going somewhere else.

Looked quite clear on reply to my eyes, I have to say. That's not to say that FFF haven't had the short end of the stick generally, reminds me a lot of Land's ill-fated venture Stateside.

After today's events, a certain other GT3 series will probably have an Italian car-shaped hole to fill...

Well well, now the #22 Porsche gets screwed as well.
Fuelled why not on the jacks? Some micro-seconds maybe?


Who does SRO want to win? A Mercedes, surely?


Race control is not having a great day today!

#51 rams the back of #32 with damage to both cars.
Warning only.

Where is the logic in all that?

Let's not create controversy when there isn't any. Rules are rules, and #22 fell foul of this one: years, picoseconds or otherwise.

I'm with you on this one. Drive through for Caldarelli, yet Ledogar gets away with it because ... Weerts kept the car on track.

Penalise the intent, not the outcome.

Fuel was clearly connected to the #22 before the car went up on the jacks.

Looked pretty clear that #63 made contact with the Ferrari from the Lambos onboard,

Did it?
I'm not convinced.

And what about the 32 and the 51?


Anyhow,
BOP penalty after qualifying, grid penalty, penalty for possible contact while others get away with the same actions. And that just for this race.
I can see why they are rumored to look towards other series.

Alright, we've seen one quick FCY this race.

Let's see one more please!

(I know I know, there will inevitably be a SC).

Instead of the turn 9 top speed, maybe AWS could show the actual order on track.
Not the race order but the actual running order so we know how many cars between 88 and 54 etc ...

-

Instead we get the exit speed of turn 3. A full 1km difference between 1st and 5th. How interesting!

That lapped car #488 in 37th is out just to frustrate #63?
How about blue flags, race control?

And what about some of the moves of #71 to prevent cars from getting closer to #51??


Very very poor driving standards...

Looks like Blekemoolen thought it was the other FFF Lambo, hence his robust defence.

#71 stopped, puncture from contact with #114.

Thanks Fuoco. FCY time, green-white-chequered here we come!

Sorry, my bad. I started it.
This was the most recent SRO thread, and I didn't see any other active one.

I see now there is indeed a 2021 thread, but that one hasn't had any new posts for over a month.
That does tell something about SRO racing I think.

Good to see an increased McLaren presence in 2022.

GT racing overall looks like will have a good 2020's. With Chevrolet and Ford getting in. Don't think any other manufactuter is leaving at this point. i think the Spa24 and N'Ring 24 profile will become even greater than in the 2010's which is the decade they really took off from being a big regional event to a global one.

ISR Team Italia are back with a pair of R8's in both series, TBC on drivers and classes, so just guessing they will do 1 PRO and 1 PRO AM as they did before.

Grids are starting to build nicely, next year is going to be interesting for GTWC. Numerous direct clashes with DTM, which is building a possibly more substantial grid than this year. I imagine we will still see a very strong PRO entry in this series though

11-12 cars announced so far in Endurance, 9-10 in Sprint. This is pretty much on par for how things were looking just before the end of the year last year in the off season, so Im predicting we will hit the 40-45 car mark in Endurance, and 22-26 in Sprint.

Personally, I'd like Endurance to stay below 45, and Sprint below 24. We've had mega grids in both series in years past, and really you ended up with just a little bit of a lottery for results, and found yourself just watching supercar trains. Slightly lower grid counts open the races up a little I think, that and you can follow more of the action easier!


Endurance - 11-12 Cars
