I'm more excited about this race on a great circuit that is Road America than the LMS at the Hungaroring.

Gas Mileage and Drayson are going to kill their chances around here. They are going to put Paul in the car to start and even if he doesn't spin he was 3-5 seconds a lap slower in practice. The first fuel stop for the LMP1's comes in about 45 mins, the LMP2 cars will (all but the Mazda) will be able to run close to an hour. Especially if both Muscle Milk and Highcroft start with the warm up laps saving fuel and likely get a early caution they might be able to do this race in two stops period and double stint the tires.
That will put the clearly faster cars at a disadvantage in track position. Only a late caution will save them.
