Looks like the adding up pretty much reflects the current state of play.

My subjective post Spa.

1. Toyota (no move)
Still the top and again I feel the gap is a little less now.
No reliability issues this time.
Going into the big one with confidence and the clear favorites.

2. Acura (no move)
No race. Would love to see their pace in WEC.

3. Ferrari (no move)
The pace is pretty much there.
The inability to warm up the tyres almost made them drop on this list!
I need to look at the relative performance of the drivers. Nothing is jumping out, but are they all as strong as each other.
At the last race I got the impression Ferrari was using more energy for its pace relative to Toyota. Is his true. Difficult to tell at Spa as I was distracted by the tyres.

4. Caddilac (up 1)
Best thing about the race,Van der Zande walking away unscathed.
I hope the crash doesn’t set them back.
I am still loving how drivable it looks.

5. Porsche (down 1)
OK. A 4th. Fine.
Reliability a concern, with Porsche! As Aysedasi points out, not even Porsche can expect instant success in this new world.

6. BMW (no change)
Could be above Porsche?

7. Peugeot (no change)
Better than Sebring. Better than Portimao. But still 7th.

8. Glickenhaus (no change)
At one point they’d played it well and were quite high up, but others recovered.

9.Vanwall (no change)
Villeneuve still grabbing all the (bad) luck there.
