The on board looks horrendously quick!
Best piece of motorsport related news and footage of the year. Top marks to Porsche and Timo Bernhard.

They should do Pikes Peak. It would destroy that Volkswagen.

Sebring is on this weekend with the WEC, Imsa double header.
WEC starts at 7am Saturday and IMSA starts at 6am Sunday (I think)
Today Alonso broke the lap record (from 2009) by 3 seconds leaving us in no doubt as to the fastest sports car series.

Well to be fair IMSA don't run LMP1 let alone LMP1-H.

If was an entertaining race.
Dry, snow, rain, dry, hail, rain, dry, rain..
Bonkers. Loads of great battles, especially in GTE.

WEC isn't looking great for the next few years. Manufacturers leaving and the Hypercar regulations in a mess.
Can't blame the GTE guys leaving when they are planning to drop a road car variant in above them.
IMSA has the right model and FIA should adopt their regulations IMHO, with the exception of the GT3 category.

That's what the rule is technically for, but it's been extended to what we saw in the weekend. That guy almost needs to sit out the race.

I don't think Kayo wil have it as it's covered by Eurosport (on FOXTEL).

Nope & my cycling friends aren't happy. As Eurosport has all the road cycling coverage & they can't get it on Kayo.
With the best shows from FOX SPORTS, ESPN and beIN SPORTS there’s always something new to watch with Kayo.
