Surprise surprise, the guy in the Ferrari hails from the GT-Am ranks.

Where are the guys on the radio during these things? Shouldn't they be talking their drivers through it, reminding them to be patient and find a good spot with the help of the spotters?

I think it's time for heavy "unsafe rejoin" penalties.

Nose change for the 02

6 laps down to class podium finish, mark my words it's going to happen.

But I won't be surprised if Beaux does issue fines and/or probation, and at least threats of suspensions to some of these guys, especially if it's pro drivers causing some of these messes. You do have to remember that when Barfield had free reign in Indy Car race control, some stuff like this lead to drivers being put on season-long probation, sometimes for lesser offenses.

I'm with that logic, could see some slack within the first race with fines and penalties to come after and drivers being parked in the future.

Oh look, another PC facing the wrong way

Louie Loper · 25 Jan 2015, 02:38 (Ref:3496597)

PC........

**joeb** · 25 Jan 2015, 02:39 (Ref:3496598)

PC cars getting shoved around on restarts

Have they gotten 6 laps back now?

Louie Loper · 25 Jan 2015, 02:40 (Ref:3496600)

dominating 54 with a flat.

broadrun96 · 25 Jan 2015, 02:41 (Ref:3496601)

It does seem like the PCs are devolving each race now, almost need to enforce a pro driver in with the Am drivers. Core seems to always run well and they've had great drivers in the car, see Colin Braun nursing that PC back broken.

Disraeli Eers · 25 Jan 2015, 02:42 (Ref:3496603)

Hedlund's car in the PC lead now

I saw that earlier and thought UFC had run its broadcast course and was gone. But the stream has been running well, oops, and have to love the 25' HDMI to the tv

It's been quite cool to see the new HPD sparking away like a 919 all race. I hope someone manages to get a good picture of it.

Accident · 25 Jan 2015, 02:59 (Ref:3496615)

Someone set the fireworks off 16 hours and 10 minutes too early?

FLGTFAN · 25 Jan 2015, 03:00 (Ref:3496616)

The year's best GTLM battle goes all night long. My money is on the Porsches.
