Just thinking aloud, is there an FIA rule for safety about the fuel cell size? Was thinking if the ACO really wants to cut costs and potentially slow laps, wouldn't larger fuel cells fit the bill? Longer stints would mean more durable tires could be developed, might be light at the end of the stint but the tires would have dropped off quite a bit.

That is a SERIOUS sweeper they are towing around. Have they always used that or something just a Laguna?

Im just going to say it, Cytosport are simply not capable of running an RS Spyder, no team has had so many problems with the RS Spyder as they have.

Dyson had some trouble didn't they? Although theirs seemed to be more about pace and setup than the running problems of Cytosport. Could it be they are too tight and stretch the rebuild durations?
Is Interport doing the full production for CBS? And did CBS used to do the full production work themselves or just air what the ALMS put together for them? |

Has Laguna turned into a survival race now? Could a GT car win overall if they keep falling away?

I've got to say, the 2 BMW's are really impressing me. The cars are showing greatly improved speed and the pit crews are arguably the best in the paddock. They no longer have the weight advantage either. They're doing all this on an equal playing field!

Looked like he just got in it a little too hard and spun the rears to slide the rear out on him

i don't think the Risi Ferrari will have any front bumper left by the end of the race if they keep this up.

Hindy is really going to have to stop talking team name or throw out everything he did earlier today or NO ONE is going to want to be seen by him at LM.

Jeremy Shaw relates that the Cytosport gear selection problem was due to a piece of gravel becoming lodged in the shift mechanism during the spin of Gidley's. Not an electronic issue at all.
