OK so which event is it that you think has been moved to Dubai?

Exactly. An event in Abu Dhabi moved to Bahrain. Nothing moved to Dubai. You are just posting random stuff about things you know nothing about on threads you don’t even properly read

Ok, I misread that. I admit it. Now take a chill pill

Looks like 2020 was a very very rough year for the series. Hope they make a comeback and get the grids at the European tracks to have at least a dozen GT3 cars like they used to. Sebring 24 hours looks very promising. I wonder what they have in mind as it appears IMSA is going to partner with Creventic.
Hope they repeat what they did at COTA and take an overnight break.

2020 was always going to be a tough year, this series I don't think featured highly on many people's radars. We'll see what happens next season, hope for the best, but it's not going to be easy, if they can get a decent number of cars on the grid with enough different makes that would be a good start. And yes Sebring 24 is one to look forward to. We'll see what they do with that, if IMSA can do enough to help out, that would be a big bonus.
Although that is interesting what they did at COTA, obviously they like to do it differently over in America, although I wouldn't count doing a 24hr with an overnight break as a proper 24hr race like Le Mans or Daytona. Those are proper round the clock sportscar races for me and others. Splitting it in two is fine, but it's not quite the same for me and it maybe should not technically be called a 24hr race. But hey, each to their own, it's nice to have a bit of variety out there

So I have been following this series for a few years. I really like the YouTube coverage that they bring. I live in Florida about 2 hours from Sebring and would like to get tickets for the Sebring race. My question is how do you get tickets for the events.
Thanks

There might be a option for free access. From what I remember, 24h COTA was open for anyone, but only some grandstands (or even none) were open.

There were a few of grandstands open at CotA, but only at the first two or three corners. Not enough spectators to warrant having more.
Sebring is likely to be the same - but it's too early to know for certain - still more than 11 months away.

Shame the 6h of Abu Dhabi wasn’t streamed, but wasn’t the largest of entries anyway

Do you like to sleep with one of the most boring races? A field with only a few cars and a shitty track.

If this race was in April I wouldn’t bother watching it, in January maybe I’d be a little keener down to lack of other options
