a) they have masked their real consumption
b) IMSA has screwed up and given them too big refueling restrictor
c) they are doing more fuel saving while driving (which would mean slower lap times)

Which ever it is, it is interesting how it pans out during the season.
I think it's that they make the restrictor work well in their fueling system

I'm torn cause that WTR incident looked like both at fault at times, hate to see 10 penalized for trying and the 5 spun for closing the door a little late. Don't think I'd get too upset about either penalty or no call and would understand either. But Ricky looks like he's trying too hard in traffic

MUller manages to hold off somehow... impressive defense... PIlet needs to watch out for Calado now

We might have an unlikely winner in GTD

Let's not forget Land as well, another team cut from similar cloth that have come over and given a great account of themselves, with their own star in Mies.

No further action ...

Ford tyres were giving up earlier, so the Porsche never really had a huge advantage. Shame as that was fun whilst it lasted.

And really are WTR not giving the place back?
