now the question is was the tire going down before or after he locked up and went through the gravel. It was the front left that locked up.

That front wheel was completely locked. I still have a lot more respect for Corvette now; totally washes off the Z06 steering issues I heard about from Motortrend.

my only regret is that le mans is just once a year. but otoh if it was more often it'd lose its magic.

just, how is it so good every year though, seriously.

The WEC site won't even load now. Cyberattack or no their server ran worse than a TS050.

RLM is saying that contact blocking Aston is what eventually screwed Corvette?

Front splitter on the Aston could have sliced the tyre

The top 5 in GTE Pro this year had all five marques represented. And was incredibly close after 24 hours. Unreal.
