Pretty sure they'll get some. How much for how long? is the question, IMHO.

However i am no weatherman.
I've never been to Florida so I wouldn't know but we shall see. Rain is also forecast for Midday, again 51%.

Well, there is an Audi works driver on the AEX roster... by your reasoning, Albuquerque should comfortably beat Curran's laptimes...same car, same BoP, allegedly much better driver....

You're a better man for it. Part of it is on fire, it's always raining somewhere, and you might get your face eaten off.

Of course, you have to drive through it to get to Sebring or Daytona.

Leave for an hour or so and still the Caddyshack up front. Unless they hit trouble this race is theirs. GTE and GTD seems to be a race still at least.

You're wasting your time. The idea that US-based teams and drivers can be better on merit is incomprehensible to them.

Dunno, unless Chevy have been holding a lot in reserve I can't see anyone beating Ford. This is all about GTD for me.

Oh look, a PC off....

Whoa, and I mean that. Florida is flat, so there are no uphills, but also no down hills. We paid pit bull millions to sing about us.

We also have great seafood, two motorsport races that were long on the world map. Not all of the mosquitos have zika, and we are the best location if you want to be bitten by a shark.

We even have a race car-Visit Florida.
