Looks like some IMSA experience. But for some reason Penske is nowhere near. Would be interesting to read team comments after the race. And 499P would be OK at Sebring?

The tyre choice and side is really different for the Ferraris. Strange.

By putting a hard tyre on that corner, you can lean on that going in the turns and not lose as much rubber as the other three.

Why was that critical? Surely you would live with it until the scheduled stop.

Maybe some hybrid systems are using this item all the time. Otherwise it won't be that urgent.

Maybe it's mandated by the series (this was the speculation of WEC comms).
