Not convinced we needed a safety car for that. To clean a track you need gaps, but to move the TechPro that's miles off the road? FCY would've done?

Edit: Cars are still at speed trying to close the gap, marshalls on track. Confusing one this. Would've been safer under FCY.

They were asked to do so.

Bad call, if you ask me.

They don't use Slow Zones outside of Le Mans. They still bring the boards and put them up, but they've never used it outside of Le Mans. FCY would've done though.

Wonder if it has anything to do with the race being in the US?

I meant a FCY of course.

I think in general the WEC race director makes less bad decisions than the SRO race director, but this was one IMO.

Slate wiped clean in GTE Pro for now. Ferrari still has the pace, but Aston, Porsche right behind now.

Never have I been so happy to see an American-style safety car ��. This feels just like IMSA. You can screw up immensely and still be in it!

Toyota will suffer from tire heat with that Safety Car, but it might preserve the pace until the end of this double stint.
