Lol Alonso just went off at T3 exit, drove counter-course on the grass back to the apex so he could rejoin safely, probably has some good scratches on the floor after that one.

CLS: puked so hard this morning I pulled a muscle on my stomach. What's incredible is I haven't even made it to Sebring yet, I'm still in ft lauderdale and driving up later today. Last night was supposed to be gentle.

If anyone has any burning questions for Lena Gade, I should be talking to her tomorrow. Lmk and as long as it’s not stupid or rude I’ll do my best to ask her.

#55 was fastest at the night practice as well, so we can definitely confirm that the Mazdas are still fast AND flammable

I’m not sure who they’re partnering with to show the race on TV at all, but get the app/find a stream. IMSA that’s all in the OP, NBCSN and IMSA Radio (IMSA TV if you’re outside the broadcast realm).

WEC is on Velocity. Also holy poo poo those Toyotas out of T7 are just insane. The rest of the P1s aren't slouches either, but the Toyotas are just in another league. Super grateful to have seen them in person.

The Porsche 919 Tribute version doesn’t drive so much as bend space-time to its will. The Nurburgring video from last year is hard to compute. Toyota has committed to the 2019-20 season so we have at least one more year of these machines in person, thankfully.

sportscar365 posted:***Track limits will no longer be enforced this weekend. Race director Eduardo Freitas initially policed Turn 15 in last weekend’s test sessions, although it was communicated to teams during the drivers’ meeting that no track restrictions will be in place. Funny how when track limits police themselves due to track design, you don't need to police track limits.

 A little birdy told me that ULA has a launch from Cape Canaveral today at 1856 US Eastern. Last check was 30% weather scrub chance so we should have a launch baring mechanical failures. Payload is WGS-10, USAF Comm Sat. Also it should be visible over the 1000 Miles of Sebring
