Ferrari F430 GTC is based on F430.
The new road car is called Ferrari 458 Italia w/o "F" How come everyone calls the race car F458?

They could be if Aston paid for them to be registered - but they haven't - so they aren't!

Any idea why Dumas was looking so angry, exchanging words with a women of the Audi staff?

Seems the comunication is a bit tense in the Audi pit...

They had to do 3 stops during that last caution. First time to take a bit of fuel because they were about to run out of fuel, the second time the pit was blocked and the third time they were finally able to do the real stop. Clearly unhappy about that.

BTW the woman is the engineer of the car

What's Peugeot's set up for Sebring. Do they just have a tent and the cars, or do they have some form of PR tent for them as a racing team?

A very large tent for the cars plus a little concession stand for merchandise

I failed to find the info on the official site so I ask:

What is the point table for the ILMC in Sebring? Is it doubled compared to Spa for exemple? And for LM?

I know also there is a point for pole, is there one for fastest lap too?

I find the comunication to be pretty obscure from the ACO, concerning the sporting aspects of their new serie...

I'm guessing it's just keyrings and clothes with Peugeot logos? No model cars or anything?

Only Le Mans is double points. Compare table on p.6 and p.7.

Thanks.
I'm a bit disapointed by that. A sebring win should have more value than an Imola win don't you think?

I beg to differ. Should it be only because of the race duration which is doubled, not taking into consideration the part of Myth, (because this is subjective), a Sebring win asks for more skills/pace/luck than an Imola or Silverstone one...

Anyway, next question

If you come by Oak box, what happened to the poor #15? Mathieu Lahaye seems to be hurt to the foot or the leg.

with the allocation of points for ILMC competitors is it in order of finish including the members of the same class that arent ILMC or just in order of ILMC competitors?

It is different. Points are given for overall classification, regardless of ILMC competitor or not.

For example a Peugeot - Highcroft - Oreca finish.

- Highcroft is not an ILMC entrant and does not score points.
- Oreca is but gets the points for third place and not for second.
