IMSA Race 2024 Daytona 24Hr or ~ 6 Daytona 500s including stages

[Hawkwood]

That was a weird ending!


I dind't get to watch anywhere near as much of this as I would have liked, but what I did see was entertaining.

[AndreasDavour]

Not well handled with the timing and communication from race control. While I cheered for Cadillac, kudos to Porsche for a well executed race.

[veeten]

That's how you use the traffic to win.

[tomcug]

Forgetting the weird ending, that was a great race. Congrats to Porsche, Nasr did a great job in the last stint.

Certainly handled it well.
Nasr was on the edge a lot in those last few laps.

[JoeW04]

Much like the 919, quick in its first year but had its issues, seemingly sorted over the winter, ominous for the rest now.

That could be the source of it.

One more lap would have been fun, but based on the previous 19 laps it probably won’t have made a difference for the overall or in the classes.

What were the positions at 23.9 hours? I believe that was also important.

Which would mean that Toyota and Ferrari will get the competition they deserve from Porsche. Can't wait for Qatar.

Just noticed I had the total number of laps wrong. The data is a slightly different format for the final results so it didn't pick up laps. Shoddy work by me. I edited it above.

While doing that I took your suggest for not 24.

Race Positions at the 24 hour mark (791 laps)

You should fix this one too

[belt driven]

Brumos Porsches won '73, '75, and '78. Brumos also won '09 with a Riley Mk Xl Porsche. AXR won '10 with a Riley Mk XX with a 5.0 liter Porsche V8 Cayenne engine developed by Lozano Brothers Porting.
Never confuse sports reporters with facts.

[tomcug]

I think we were talking about Penske's last Daytona win, not Porsche's. Or do you refer to some other discussion that happened before?

[fergus_r]

That was a tense finish, and exciting, despite the final lap farce. Congrats to Porsche. The effort put towards improving tire wear clearly paid off, especially in that last stint.

I recall someone reporting that some Porsche was using used tires (from practice?) in early stints.

Not getting into discussion/argument with Adam43 about merits/faults of various timing sources; BUT...I just noticed livescoring.us/2024/imsa01/ shows Checkered in the flag box with 1:35 remaining on the clock...

It's actually correct, race control made a mistake and ended the race 1 lap too early.

1:35 left indeed.

[Akrapovic]

Race started 2 minutes later than the scheduled time.

Race finished at the scheduled time.

Hence missing this additional lap.

Yeah. Hence 23.97 hours!
