LOL!! Porsche vs Ford...I just don't see any way Vanthoor can keep them behind. Ford has got a 5mph advantage down the straight.

I'm biased but it's a bit harsh of a penalty for the 911 / 3 incident.

I think it was fair. The Vette blocked inside which is legal, but dodgy, then came back and took away the outside from the Porsche...

I get it. Just seemed ever so slight and normally has little impact, but not this time.

I at least like quick and decisive calls from race control.

But they may have actually been banking on more FCY, because they should have topped off the #85 as Action Express did with the #5 unless they knew they wouldn't make it out of pit lane in time.

Edit - Nope, they just utterly stuffed up their strategy. Simpson pits for emergency fuel, and even that was 4 seconds longer than it should have been.

Cars are surprisingly filthy for a short race in dry conditions. Looks great on the 85!

The Nissan is super fast in a straight line. The Caddy is running light on downforce and the Nissan still eats it.
