I don't think Calvin has grasped the concept of Pro-Am.

Calling someone 'the Pro-Am driver' doesn't make sense. You're either the Pro or the Am.

Maybe it's easier for 'dummies' to understand than using WEC-like bronze-silver-gold-platinum rating system in speech.

Pandemonium has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
From watching this weekend the 6 hours of SPA and now some TUSCAR you can really tell the amazing background at SPA with the woods and all and the beautifull circuit. AND THEN THIS !!! It really makes some contrast this ugly ugly circuit.

Irrelevant comparison, grow up...

Both are great classic road courses (although Spa's modifications on/off track over recent years have actually made it rather worse), may (sportscar)racing long continue on both!

Crazy strategy in GTD---Lizards and AJR trying to stretch a tank of fuel for an hour and a quarter, gambling on a caution, while Miller, AF Corse, and Turner all charging--but the Ferrari has old tires and isn't making up much ground.

Paul Miller Audi looking like it has a chance if things stay green. The end of this race could be a nail-biter.

Yep. Spa is in Belgium and Laguna is in California. Different layout, different topography, different climate. Apples and oranges as they say.

Yeah but he's referring to the amateur drivers as 'Pro-Am' drivers. Which is fundamentally wrong.

IMSA could actually leave that car over there and show the world how big their balls are.. but they won't

Edit: WOW, they will - it's a miracle!!! What's going on in race control???

Hmm looks like they just did.

Not consistent with calls we've seen during the season so far. But they've let the racing take place on the track.

Credits to Ostella as well for moving that suspension damaged car off track in a safe position - very mature after just throwing away his own race. Well done!

Definitely a breakout race for Sean Rayhall. That's one good thing about the split class in that these stories don't get lost in the other battles.

Interesting to see DHH already complaining (or flagging up)on Twitter his driver ranking. Obviously he's very quick for an Am guy - but with so little top-line experience I think it's perfectly fine for him to have a breakout year and then progress up the ranks next year.

Congrats to Starworks. Martini livery was worth a few tenths there.

Awesome finish in GTD. Feel for Pumpelly. Out in sight of the finish. He can console himself with a Le Mans drive next month.

Flying Lizards gamble... and miss! Great strategy from Turner, great to see Cameron get a win here. And a good, solid run up the field from Starworks too.

Wow, ignorance raising its' ugly voice....
Spa is indeed a beautiful course, but calling Laguna Seca ugly means you've never been there. seeing the pacific ocean from the top of the hill is a beautiful thing...

Kudos to IMSA on their level-headed race control today. They left a broken car off track without a needless FCY.
