I like the livery on that Kessel F430 ..... but still the best Fiat livery has gotta be the Virgo car . Maybe its because most of the 430 cars are red based , nice to see the change .

I still feel for Virgo , about Le Mans ..... very surprised at how well they went . Hope their there next year ...... with a 997

Ferrari is a winner, but when the Porsche is out from the games, or the steward help the prancing donkey when they are not able to win thanks to their own capabilities!
That's why Ferrari has won in Le Mans (all the Porsches, extremely faster than Ferraris, were out), and in FIA GT (FIA= Ferrari International Assistance).
If you are happy for this... you are a real ferrarist!

Yes, you're right. But they were 2 laps behind the cars on the poster!

Or sitting in the barriers at the top of the hill, waiting for the flat-bed to carry their destroyed cars back to the pits.

I think you guys are going to have to lay off Salo and Melo and the other Ferrari Drivers for a while since it was the Porsche Pilots who pulled the big "Ooooops" at Le Mans this year! At least until the next Ferrari Oh-Oh!

3 of the 911's are using a new 4.0L engine at Lime Rock this weekend.

"Three of the GT2 Porsches - the Werner/Westbook car, the Flying Lizard Johannes van Overbeek/Patrick Pilet Porsche - which qualified fifth, and the Bergmeister/Henzler Porsche, are all outfitted with a new 4.0 liter engine, which develops the same horsepower as the current 3.8 liter engine. The engine, still in its testing phase, is designed to improve drivability by widening the power band."

Well, nothing to do for Ferrari. If the third Porsche would not have been forced to the pits, there would be a triplet! The same thing would be happened in Le Mans if the Porsches would not be eliminated from the race for a stupid crash.
Porsche is superior to Ferrari. If Lizard would run in FIA GT or LMS, there wouldn't be any chance for Ferraris.
Sorry, but the Porsche is the Porsche.
Go Lizard!

Now ..... im waiting for all those smart arse anti-Porsche comments . Bit slow in coming today ..... probably cuz the Fiat crew havent much interesting to say about it .

I didnt see the race , but I guess there is not a lot for "them" to say , is there ? Except admit that they were beaten fair and square ..... even Panoz came 5th !!!

Porsche has dominated the race. Nothing to say. If the second Lizard car would not have had some troubles, we would have three Porsches on the podium.
Great day for the Porsche, bad day for the Fiat.
If Lizard would take place in LMS or FIA GT, we would have just another story!
I hope to see the Freisinger come back in FIA GT, to see the Porsche destroying Ferrari race by race.
