Not so unusual for race cars. C5R and C6R GT1 were fire addicted too, and were projected by P&M, an engineering company involved also in US army projects.

No one sees to have mentioned the fact that the little GT scuffle a few lap's before Senna's retirement was - ironically - cause by the 97 Aston making a rather duff overtaking manoeuvre.

I hope there is a good battle between #97 and #51, because nobody has the pace to catch them

EDIT: And 25 is out.

Since origins, fire has always been a tragic part of races. Lucky, now is rarer than it was in the past. But a lot of cars experimented fire in the last years. Is not only a Ferrari trouble!

On another note the 98 Aston will probably be out soon with rear suspension failure...

Astons seem to have developed a worrying trait of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. As an AMR fan, I hope it doesn't continue.

Jack Gerber has caused a lot of trouble today. If he wasn't in the car then the Griffin/Cioci lineup could easily be in the Pro class.

EDIT: And he just got caught speeding on pit lane.

I call for a post-race infraction.

Yes but the incident which caused Senna's suspension failure wasn't 61's fault, it was the 97 Aston which pushed it into a spin.

Perhaps it's best for the 61 to be pulled in any instance!

Another Hindy moment: "problematical".

And two very close moments between TK and Mücke.

Tracy Krohn really is a poor driver. Endangering GTE-Pro drivers by cutting across them, oddly similar to what Mediani.

Usually I don't like Hindy's "backseat driver" approach to criticizing drivers, but that was a perfectly acceptable comment given the situation.

Campbell-Walter and Fisichella to the pits. Finally Mücke gets some time in the lead...

And now Mücke's in the pits. This will be interesting to see how this cycles out.

To be fair I believe there is a fundamental flaw of the Ferrari where looking in the mirror isn't trivial as compared to the Porsche, Aston, Vette, BMW. This car has been at the center of Numerous clashes with cars trying to get past for few years...
