That's true, but they did say it will be new and spectacular so it's not hard to figure out.

From what I can gather from the appalling translation, Manthey is none too pleased with Frikadelli's decision.

Not much excitement in VLN3 to report on, but it was pretty obvious that BMW have it all figured out going into the 24 Hours of the Nürburgring: http://www.gt-report.com/2016/05/16/battle-lines/

Unless they gave away too much and get hit over the head with BoP now.

That Frikadelli news sucks, but not a fan of the blackmail tactics for better BoP; I believe the organisers have the best interests in mind even if they sometimes mess it up.

Hope it's resolved before next week.

That's always a risk when you win this dominantly, isn't it? Will be interesting to see the new BoP for the N24.

Is the Konrad Lambo still entered at the moment? Mr Sanna's answer here confused me a little:

Not following VLN closely but with 2 Porsches in the top 10 could we say Frikidelli's decision to quit is a strange one?

Not really. The three Porsches were nowhere near the pace of the BMW's and were the slowest among the other top contenders (Audi & Mercedes).
A real shame that politics are not firmly removed from BoP.

In what championship the 911 GT3 R has been quick? Because in the GTD IMSA at Mazda they have to bring a nearly pro lineup to win.

Intersting laptimes of the first lap of VLN3. 7:47 - never driven with GT3 there, but they changed the track @ Flugplatz.


Additional here the entry-list with pictures, quite useful with 157 starters.

No more or less pro than the competition.
BoP also plays a role in IMSA.
I read somewhere that the regulators (VLN) wanted to find out what the strong and weak points were of the "new" GT3R before adjusting the Bop.

Guys, only a couple of weeks until the N24. Get hyped by this video by Falken Tyre, which has just been released. Martin Ragginger driving a stint in the dusk with rain. One of the best pov videos I've come across.
