How do you figure that?

WEC GTE = no driver aids
SC = no driver aids

WEC Aston Martin = front engine, rear transaxle
SC = front engine, rear transaxle

WEC = lots of power
SC = lots of power

Seems more similar than different?

The best place to learn is in the main series -- in a season of Super2 they don't do enough kms. Especially for a driver of the calibre of a GP2 race winner.

Remember this car and driver, who debuted in the main game instead of doing three seasons of development series?


So many people quick to assume Stanaway will be the next Besnard. Besnard also did only six races in Super2, before debuting in the Caltex Falcon on the promise of potential talent.

If Stanaway is merely the next Besnard, he will gradually drop down to less competitive teams before leaving the sport -- that simple. Heck, matching Besnard's solid six year career in the main game would still be more than respectable!
