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

They should ditch the LMPs and just get even more manufacturers in GT.

I wonder if any new manufacturers will arrive in LMP1 after the new regs were announced. Nissan said they will defo return. I'd love it if Ferrari participated again.

Aren't there a whole bunch of new privateer entries joining, too?

Kolles, Dallara and Ginetta signed up for LMP1 next season. A few LMP2 teams are looking at it since the rule change iirc

Given how competitive LMP2 appears to be, I wouldn't begrudge him counting it.

Maybe Nissan will come back for another go. A showdown between them and Toyota would be cool.
Short time to turn build a competitive car though...

LMP1 had a good run to be honest. Still sad Peugeot dropped out with those insanely fast 908s

I don't think Lamborghini have ever done prototypes before and for some reason I don't see them as being their style

Motorsport in general isn't Lambo's style.

Old man Lamborghini was always deeply suspicious of motorsport.

They made engines for F1 in the late 80s so there is some precedent

Can't believe the cars from a same brand look similar and how that design evolves only slightly over time. This is shocking, to me.

They’ve done it for Japanese events (Super GT and Super Formula, as well as events like NISMO festival) for a while, it looks fun but you have to be on the correct side to get a good view! It’s also not cheap and very popular.

[Edit] the WEC race has started, almost 40 minutes in. They started behind safety car for the first 10 minutes or so, still rainy and wet.

I’m sure I saw a YouTube clip of a Japanese couple getting married on board a safari bus...

If anyone doesn’t own it yet, Motorsport Manager now has an endurance racing DLC to go with the GT and single seater events. Glad they are still working on it :unsmith:
