Laguna Seca 2019

This is happening as we speak. First practice is almost over and the entire Proto field is within 1.2 seconds. quite a bit more spread in gtlm with the Porsches at the bottom. I'm guessing they are holding back.

Their new sponsor is US Concrete and they're personally delivering bags of it around the track to lucky fans?

Code Talking. I can't believe there were no BoP changes in GTLM prior to the race. Porsche is not going to want to invite any BoP for Petit (yes, my opinion).

belt driven has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
If this race plays out anything like Road America; I might rethink my Petit plans. Wondering which turbo will win reminds me of the Petits I skipped in the late oughts because wondering which Audi would win was less than fascinating.

So the race being decided by one of the 5 turbo cars is boring? Lots can happen in the race, you should go.

I'm going straight NBCSN until I get tired of the commercial breaks.

I've not watched a recorded race yet this year. Ain't nobody got time for that!

EDIT - The ad breaks are relentless. Searching for a youtube stream.

I got back from the meat store and cigar shop in time to watch the start. Got a little "bangy" at the corkscrew.

And I love the track map talk after the start of the race...

Thanks for the race thread, and I can't believe I am watching live (I almost hesitated writing that for fear of fate tipping the satellite out of orbit).

Seems like some early stops for the protos and especially the gtlm cars. If they only made it 33 minutes, this will be a lot of stops in the race.

Yeah, he has to be upper brass at Fox and NBC that just totally don't get motor sports coverage. Or maybe I don't know how the money works.

It should be a two or three stop race, right? Short stinting the first one then changing driver on next stop with one last stop for fuel and maybe tires?

EDIT - Joey Hand and Ford already making a driver change. 35 mins for Dirk and 2 hours for Joey. I'd be peeved if i were Dirk. Others changing drivers, too...

It's like they have a plan going in and they just stick with it rather than covering the event.

People seem to either enjoy her well enough or despise her. I'm watching ads on NBCSN so I can't give my opinion on her today

I wish IMSA would show the races live on their Roku app.
