One thing for the late-season, the drivers of the 2nd Dyson are negotiating funding to run the last 2 races at VIR and PLM in addition to the rest of the sprint races and Road America.

Ryan Hunter-Reay will definitely be driving the Viper GTS-R at Petit Le Mans, but he won't be driving it any earlier. Still no confirmation on when the Viper will actually debut. |

Wittner, Farnbacher and Goosens were the first three announced drivers when the car was unveiled officially. However... I'm not sure how much of RHR we'll be seeing now, considering the fact that he's suddenly found himself in the Indycar championship lead.

This isn't the first time Goossens or Hunter-Reay drove for a team owned by Riley Technologies...in fact, they drove together.
In 2007, Goossens and Hunter-Reay won a Grand-Am race in Utah in the Riley-Matthews DP, co-driving with Jim Matthews. Goossens has also driven for Riley-D'Hondt (owned by Riley Technologies) in a NASCAR race at Watkins Glen. So that's two Riley-connected drivers (Goossens and RHR), and two SRT/Dodge-connected drivers (Farnbacher and Wittmer). I wonder if the two remaining to confirm will follow a similar pattern of having a past with Riley or with SRT/Viper/Dodge. |

So what's the deal with the Mid-Ohio broadcasting deal... the initial message (which still applies I'd think) said that the race would be covered live by ABC but not streamed on ESPN3. Okay, that's fine and funky but now the ABC broadcast has been shorted by 1 hour, ie cutting off the first hour like ESPN2 did at LRP and next weekend's Mosport GP.
Now, the official IMSA site for Lexington shows that the qualifying will be on ESPN3, but not the race. However, on alms.com it says that the live streaming of the race will commence, but does not specify ESPN3. So am I right to say this: In US, the race is shown live solely only on ABC, but only the last 105 minutes are shown In Europe, the entire race is shown live on alms.com and Motors TV |

Story about Dyson racing, and how the Lola situation has affected them. |

The really big news in that one is that Mazda will be gone from P1 next year....

I'm guessing they'll still use the AER considering their relationship with that firm, just un-badged. I still wonder what this team's long-term future in LMP1 and racing in general will be, perhaps a more Pro-Am ridebuyer approach like we have seen with their second car last year and in 2012?

Do agree with his comment about fans wanting to see cutting edge technology. I am not a fan of spec racing like Grand Am.

I'm also glad to hear that Lola's situation will not deter them from running their current chassis as long as they wish. And about the future - could Dyson build their own car?
