Check my last post. Take the green flag=automatic entry points. I'm not sure about drivers' points.

At least the 63 is running again
It goes behind the wall, but it is not dead yet.

BTW: this is a different safety car now? It is more blue than green now, right?

And viper before that iirc. I got the impression he was not the quickest in either though.

Does that mean he's out of the Mazda programme next year?
Or is he allowed to race because he had nothing to do anyway?

I would have picked Nunez instead of Bomarito though

I am very confused about how they got into the lead. The guys who snuck into the pits right before the Safety car should have gained the track position. And we saw the Porsche have a bad stop.

Then the other Porsche came in during the yellow. How could either of them be leading?

Hmmm ... I heard Lotterer was preparing for a Formula E season for Porsche (in 19)
(As well as Jani), but that's probably fake news

Last time I looked, Ferrari were last and Porsche were 3rd and 4th. I must've been pit stops.

Porsche's lead lasted for a whole lap or so, until Fisichella drive right past the #911.

He is still part of the Mazda program, he was allowed to race and keep him trained. I think it's a good idea.

Well i don't dispute, because the timing show Werner leading, and although he just got passed, I'm not quite sure how he was in the lead.

The day might be done for the #63... Strange how two of the championship leaders retired so early.

Yes I saw that. It was a Corvette as well that stopped. But during this free stop, the Porsche did not get moving from it's pit stall. And they got beat out by the Corvette, and a Ford under yellow So how could they be leading when they went green again? Was I dreaming?

Lotterer signed for Techeetah driving in 2017-18 season already.

Okay I think I just mixed up the Porsches. The guys that pitted just before the SC actually did not get the jump on the other GTLM cars that came in during the yellow.

I know. Preparation for Porsche for 19. At least, I read that somewhere
Likewise Jani is driving somewhere (Dragon?) as a preparation exercise too.
