MazeOfTzeentch posted:I want one in 1993 throwback livery again  This. I want them to use this at least once. “Oh but that’s for the US only” Is it? I love the old look, and I know the orange and green RENOWN look is also iconic. And I do love the new soul red/silver looks they have now, it’s on the way to being as iconic. But if you can have a throwback, I’d love to see these as well. Proposal: similar to NASCAR, establish one IMSA round as “throwback weekend.” I’d say Laguna Seca would be good for that.

It will be even more interesting to see how the non-hybrids keep up with the factory spaceship. It’ll be a “team’s” championship next year, so all of these groups will be fighting hard. It’s no guarantee that Toyota will be far ahead, and it’ll be interesting to see if any of the new prototypes will be fast and reliable.

LMP1s might get close on pace, but Toyota will be the biggest, best funded, most professional team out there, and I’d imagine the fuel/energy usage rules will still lean heavily in their favor. I bet it’s at least two fuel stops fewer at Le Mans than the next best P1. Most races should see the Toyotas battling at the front with the privateers behind. The intriguing part will be

The only question is if Nando will be behind the wheel at that time or not.

International sports car racing will burn itself out and be re-born stronger, this is always the cycle. International touring car racing will never catch on and eventually peter out, this is always the cycle.

Wirth1000 posted:Paul Ricard is a travesty and blows my mind F1 is going there next season. Ricard is a grade-1 test circuit, just (“just”) needs upgrades to the spectator facilities, and is also owned by one B. Charles Ecclestone. It’s better than Magny-Cours.

Human Grand Prix posted:Magny Cours fuckin’ sucks. Post-2001 Hockenheim is even worse. Classic Hockenheim is amazing, this is true, but I enjoy driving on new Hockenheim in games. But I’m also the person who thinks current Fuji Speedway is alright, so take that as you will.

Cygni posted:Same number of full timers they had the last 2 years. They normally get a few 1 offs for Daytona and Sebring that add to the GTLM field for those two races. Doesn't look like any of the factory teams doing both IMSA and WEC (Porsche, BMW, or Ford) are bringing the European cars over to add numbers. 20 prototypes, 21 GTD cars

Cygni posted:The 1-offs don't have to participate in the Roar, the full timers do. That said, I don't think any of the euro cars will show. Thought it was a 24 entry, not Roar, my mistake. I think Ford might bring the extra cars, but still....what's the capacity for Daytona? 51 already has to be pushing it.
