KingShibby posted:Sage Karam just got done speaking here at IndyCar Media Day, and he announced that he will be running the remainder of the WeatherTech Series in a Chip Ganassi Lexus GTD entry beginning with Laguna Seca. Sage will also be running in the 100th Indy 500 this year as his only IndyCar race (so far) Isn't it Gentilozzi's RSR that are running the Lexus?

VikingSkull posted:CT state law requires an investigation after a race track fatality, and the race is on hold due to a police investigation, soooo The article does say state law requires a police report/investigation if an incident results in a driver is taken to hospital so it might not be that bad, but the photo shows one of the cars covered up which is normally not good

I like Dalziel suggesting the wing came off after minor contact with a GTD car and not because it was driven under a tyre barrier.

jammyozzy posted:Does anybody know if the official Le Mans stream will have RLM commentary? I can't seem to find any info on it anywhere. It won't, they haven't been using the radio feed at all for a couple of years now and Graham and John are too busy doing that to do the usual dedicated stream comms. I can't even remember who they had last year but I do remember the small part I heard not being that great

It was fairly obvious this was coming once IMSA announced all the alterations they were making to the formula (which they originally proposed to the ACO), at least it spares us any more bitching about BoP between P2s and DP(i)s. Besides, as long as the Detroit round exists no-one is going to be running the same physical car in both IMSA and Le Mans anyway. They'll just rent a stock P2 from their DPi chassis provider like Shank did this year. Edit: Showed their hands too early quote:The Ferrari 488 GTE has been handed a 15kg weight increase, with the Ford GT given 10kgs of additional weight and a slight reduction in boost pressures.

Keep the P1s, add in GT1s and have 2 classes that can fight for the overall win like in the late 90s and if one implodes due to crazy spending (like in the late 90s) you won't lose the entire top half of the grid in one go.

Kilonum posted:Hoping this gets answered on the WEC stream Only logical place in motorsport for it, use a standard P2 car as a base and prove it can handle running in faster, slower and same speed traffic without directly competing and having to go wheel to wheel with other cars.

Dudley posted:Fair but I wonder if they'd take the risk of it loving up and ploughing through a slow zone at 200 Oh yeah, you'd need to be absolutely sure before you even suggested it to the ACO. If a driverless car does anything even slightly wrong during an event of this size it'd probably wreck the whole concept the world over.
