>SAFETY CAR IN THIS LAPdigits and clear restart
Nothing but SC for the first 50 minutes
>>158246081not true, we've had like two (2) minutes of peak motor racing and/or clown world
yooo that snap on the 50
nice move by the 83, sad that they decided to not show it on the tv
Bimmer bros...
>>158246094>kubicawagon up to P4i'm okay with this
why pit now? posicion para juncabro
>>158246043But the 963 isn't in this series...
The Genesis appears to be the onboard with the most viewers, crazy.
>toyotawinslol
are the yoders also cheatin' in WEC?
>>158246102why is that? they are losing placesgreat racing by the 51why is the toyota so fast??? bop their ass!!!!
>TC off in the rainlel
holy fuck, the balls of that man
wtf, actual motor racing in my WEC?!
>the absolute state of these genesis drivers
>>158246102That is pretty interesting
juncabros juncabros juncabros juncabros juncabrospenal for the 7 toyota!!!! kill his ass
>double yoder penaltyferrari cheque cleared
Half the grid has been given a penalty at this point.
>>158246132>double yoder penalty
>>158246107It's been a while, but yeah...>>158246109Honestly, no. They have been in the series much longer than every other team and they are just good.What did he say about the hand brake?
Even with this rain it's TWL all over again
FUCKKKKK I THOUGHT THE 7 TOYOTA WAS DEAD FOR A SEC THEREthey cant do this to me
>variable debris chicanegreat idea
>fcy to remove a shitty bit of paper on a straight
>devries all over the trackgrim
>debris on straight>stays greenbased
>>158246109They are basically running a new evo car this year. It's been strong.
That shot down the front straight of the 7 sliding through the turn was absolute cinema.
>30 mins of green flag racingwtf is even happening?!
>>158246214modern racing is for sissies
>>158246166juncabro you are playing with danger
>>158246221whatevsi take all the motor racing i can get today
>>158246214
no penal for the 7 toyota... fuckkkkkthe toyotas are so fast in the wet, my hopium is that the end of the race will be dry and they wont be as fast there
>>158246214We've had too many good races, we were due a stinker.

Will Ford and McLaren stand a chance against the mighty Toyota?
Guess it's time to fired up the VPN and go to Indonesia
Damn it, every strim ded
its back
the rig is in
Why are there 3 ferraris on the field
please please crashthey wont crash becase 8 penal...>>158246363why not?
>>158246363One is a privateer team, bls understand
>>158246293Maybe? The Genesis has been way better than it should have. They would likely still be in the top 5 if it wasn't for the wet conditions. If Ford and McLaren don't have a similarly strong showing, it will be pretty embarrassing for them.
>>158246363Where have you been?
>>158246380i thought rules stated 2 cars per manufacturer
>>15824638583 isn't ran by ferrari though :^)Just AF Corse
>>158246393>:^):^)
>>158246363One is a "privateer". It's technically a works team, but it's really just a third factory car. They'll actually won le Mans last year.
>>158246408>They actually won le Mans last yearpeak kino+sovl
i was just going to ask what was the time requirement for a driver to score, 40 mins they said, not muc so it shouldnt be a problem for drivers to go fo a long stint nowno more rain? the track is good enough for dry now
>>158246408>>158246393have they been running 3 ferraris all season? I've been watching the entire season (I also watched le mans) and I never noticed
When did WEC GT3 start doing success ballast? This is the first time I've heard of that.
>>158246439since always
>>158246438>I've been watching the entire season (I also watched le mans) and I never noticed
>>158246438They have been running the 83 since Bahrain in 2024. It's yellow, though, so maybe that's why you didn't notice.
>>158246439>When did WEC GT3 start doing success ballast? This is the first time I've heard of that.>>158246438>have they been running 3 ferraris all season? I've been watching the entire season (I also watched le mans) and I never noticedBro, I think we just had a universal merger and are getting the Mandela effect. I've been watching this series for a long time and I've never heard of success ballast, but BoP. Weird.
buemi mad, like chill you are leading and most likely will win the championship
>>158246385The manufacturers need to run two cars to compete. They can support additional teams as long as they meet that criteria.>>158246435It's been there for years anon. It's Kubica's car.
>>158246483Yeah, I really don't see why he's so upset.
>>158246480Success ballast has been a thing for a while. My mandella effect was being convinced that they had it for hypercars this year, but apparently it was only on the table, never implemented.
>>158246483He's a grump. Always has been.
>>158246483has buemi even not been miserable? i can't picture him smiling
4 hours to go
>>158246508It's better that way
god give me a caddy, frog or james bond podium PLEASE

Where did everybody go?
>>158246702Had to take a dump.
>>158246702still here, watching the kubicawagon climbing up the ladder rn
I dont know if its just me but it feels like they're showing GT3 even less then usual.
/ourShea/ working the pits.
>>158246702your house, open the door
>>158246750dunno, maybe we got used to 100% GT3 at Portimao yesterdaythere is also stuff happening between hypercars so there's that
just opened the strimwhat happened to the gooks
>battle for ded lastamazing
gm, I tried waking up at 5am and my body hard declined, seems like i missed some wet running which sucks.
LETS GO TOYOTA (GAZOO) RACING
>>158246760It's about time
>>158246833based
>>158246750Yeah, it kind of does, but to be fair, there has been a lot happening in Hypercar
>>158246702just came back from a hour long pooping sessionwhy are peugeot first?
>>158246857they are not, they will pit now
>>158246857pitstops
>>158246863>>158246864sadfuck toyota
>>158246792It wasn't the good kind of wet running, though. It was mostly drivers going off and causing yellows.
The #33 Corvette has just been battered the whole race.
3 hour sprint status?
GJ
i believe in the 50
>>158246943TWL
I am gonna miss the RC F guysthe new yota just doesn't hit the same
>highlightsi assume it's a yellow flag?
The Toyotas are just gone. If they don't crash or break, they're going to win. No one is catching them on pace.
Why can't other teams just pay for favourable BoP like Toyota does?
>>158247072We need rain again
>>1582470023rd hour mark
Well, here's some GT3 coverage...
>>158247125thank you
Since when is the McLaren any good? I've definitely switched time lines.
>>158247261It may be expensive to buy, costly to run, unreliable, and hard to drive, but that doesn't mean it can't be fast in a BoP class.
>>158247261It can be good, but when it is good it goes up in flames or break down eventually.

>>158247942It's crazy neither car was critically damaged.
I think the Toyotas are just managing their lead. They could be lapping cars if they wanted.
>>158248529they are cheating!!!
another toyota sweep> BOP MAKES RACING SOOOO EQUAL
Anyone know if any of the GT3 drivers have talked about the differences in tires? WEC uses Good Year Eagles. IMSA uses Michelin Pilot Sports. GTWC uses Pirelli P-Zeros. Yokohamas are even used in other series.For my road car I've switched from Pirelli to Michelin and in not going back.
RAIN IN 20
Hello yeah
>>158248685Michelin are the best road tires in the world. Even if every performance factor is identical, they are quieter, too.
>>158248744Yeah the road noise between the Pirellis and Michelins is night and day.
>>158248685They do make comments but they're hard to find after the fact. Not many articles like https://sportscar365.com/other-series/n24/andlauer-praises-importance-of-nurburgring-24-tire-freedom/ either.Tires in Super GT through this year and the N24/NLS are obviously better than the spec tires used everywhere else regardless of brand. The WEC Goodyears are generally considered shit, but not as shit as the old IMSA Continentals were. I think the SRO Pirellis are considered better than they used to be and the IMSA Michelins are seen positively. No idea on anything else like the Creventic/GT Open Michelins or Super Taikyu Bridgestones.
Looking back at the replays, the gravel here does a pretty good job slowing the cars down, but not trapping the cars every time.
>>158248668They got ass fucked by the BoP so many times they went and made an explicitly anti-BoP car (as light as possible to the detriment of raw power), and it just works. Hats off to that, I'd say.
a championship where hirashitter can be champion, is a joke
>>158249051A note to the N24/NLS that teams have free tyre choice. So for the GT3 class you see like 5 to 6 brands of tyres in use.>>158249072It is more that the gravel is soaked and compacted with water. If it was dry, the cars would be stuck as ususal
>>158248685https://youtu.be/VkHxlAhFhtcHere's someone comparing the Goodyear, the Michelin and the Yokohama. Apparently the Yokohama feels like it's on rails.
>>158249051That's cool, thanks. Tire wars are interesting but I understand the appeal of having a series tire.
so race over, at least 50 podium, fuck toyota
Cam on, do a rain
>Licky sucky?
So whatever happened to the Genesis GT3? Will we not see it next year?
i want the caddy to retain the lead but god damn that fucker's going to pit sometime soon
>>158249313It's never coming. It was a concept car and pissed Ratel off.
>>158249313No real updates since the initial announcement. They are still trying to figure out how to make the money work. It will probably be 2028 or 2029 before we see it race.
>>158249313On a similar note, is the new Mercedes GT3 only racing in 2028?

>cadillac refueling strategy
Did the 51 'Rari have some technical issues? They're finishing last at this rate.
watch them build all this fucking gap, only to eat the gravel trap on the final 10 minutes like the 2024 Ghost of Spa
>>158249513Calado was complaining about no front grip whatsoever, so they likely just fucked up their setup.
>>158249513Bad timing of the FCY
>Ferrari spaghetti tiktaks
makes sense waiting until the last moment for the last pit stop, if you make your last pitstop and there is a fcy after you wont burn all the fuel, you would would have lost time by putting it in and by being heavierthe cars that waited for their last pit are 8% fuel lighter
GOD DAMN
alpine mechanic
Noob hereNo NSX?
the stream is Fucking dying
ass on my screen>>158249703you missed the ass on your screen
>>158249717Yes thats why I posted. I missed the mechanics ass.
>>158249679>>158249687>>158249717That was startling.
>>158249693Honda has abandoned it, it's only run in the Italian GT championship as far as I'm aware
>>158249738what is it about alpine and fat asses?
>>158249693their new machines should be on JGTC/SuperGT, where it used to be a Civic now replaced by the Prelude
kubica? more like kubican't
>>158249738That's not an alpine ass, that's an offical ass. An ass as good as the official IMSA ones.

>>158250014Yes, with less than 100m to go
well, at least molinabro podium, sad for juncabro
Oh, good. The Mustang died, too. This race did not go well for me, but it was still better than Qatar.
imagine if he just floored it and ran over all those people
That's a great crowd, especially for the first race of the series at that track.
>>158250112Mandrilia stole their F1 race, so they have to cope somehow
always a good time watching vrooms with you brotherssee you around the next ones
>>158250138I'd say they came out ahead.
>>158250138
>>158250178Cheers, fren.
That manthey Porsche might be one of my favorite liveries of the year. Just looks great and glad it won just cause of that.
>>158250666I have been admiring it all weekend, too. It won so hard it's like it was in another class. It was alone on the track in almost every shot.
