Nope.


Am I the only one that is missing the Fox commentary team on the international stream? RLM is very familiar and infinite improvement over MRN, but Bell & Kendall were exceptional together last year.

There are reports that the stopped Mazda may have been damaged by contact in the horsehoe. If true, this doesn't really say anything about any strides they have or have not made.
Yeah but for all their improvements they're last but one in P disregarding the cars that have had issues and there's PC cars ahead of them.

Takes more than one year to make a car competitive when you're building off of an engine never meant to be racing. Particularly when you don't have seemingly infinite funding.

Nick Tandy picking is way through the GTLM field. He's split the Vettes now.

I would rather listen to FOX commentary. RLM are probably great if your're at the race track, but on tv.. not so much.

They get a lot of stick, but the BoPpers seem to have done a fair job, GT classes seem fairly well balanced.

Yeah it feels a bit messy - particularly when overlayed over Fox who are interviewing other people.

At least having Trussers should be a bonus across the duration of the race.

Bruni lost three places somehow in the last couple of laps. Lost the GT lead.

From the qualifying times I thought the Porsches might have had a bad BOP but Tandy is already up to second...

One of the things I love about the Delta Wing is how much I got ridiculed for trusting Ben Bowlby that it would work when all I actually did was use simple science to note why the one thing we can be 100% certain of was that it wouldn't fall over when it tried to turn.

Every time I see the Delta Wing do decently well I smile and think of how many people had to eat crow over their comments about it.

You can tell Tandy doesn't watch NASCAR, NEVER drop onto the apron. It rarely works well and now NASCAR penalizes you too much.

Justin Bell is crazy, "adrenaline is brown" really?

I think the #4 Corvette almost ran the #91 Porsche off the road at the tri-oval. I'm glad an incident was avoided there,
