Next generation R8 GT3 also sports a huge diffuser. Gonna be interesting to see if it'll be homologated this time around.

Hope you enjoy it!
Great! Thanks a lot!

it should be logic to allow it in GT+ and ban it in GT... but anyway it seems that the GTE/GT3 merge won't never happen.

In the meanwhile, Parente crashed his mp4 during practice...

Does ART own a spare car? The current car looks done to me. I don't think we will see this chassis in the race.

this year team ART is something like an official team for mclaren in BES... even if the car won't be repairable, I'm sure that another mp4-12c will be delivered in time for race (or even better for qualifying).

#38 aston looks ridiculously strong in pro-am. in pro, not so sure. Audi looks the strongest. I just whish Mercedes would bring back the Götz/Buhk/Schneider line-up. that was the true A-Team imo, none of the other pairings come close to this.

will be interesting to see which one of the ART McLarens is stronger. I've become a bit of an Estre fanboy on one hand and am starting to be more critical of Parente. Not sure if Von Ryan makes it past more than a podium finish, even if the car holds up.

true, there were some races where it stands to reason that the mclaren would've held up mechanically, but I'm beginning to think maybe the McLaren is a bit too difficult to drive in the long run compared to other cars which leads to drivers makeing mistakes.

And of course i'm very interested to see what Bentley does.

I really hope Nismo does a live feed for the race weekend, the series official stream is usually geo-blocked.

As far as i understand the translated Endurance Info article ART will/will try have the car repaired in time for warm up with other Mclaren teams offering parts.

Do you know if that will be the full 24 hours or just a handfull of hours? Not that I'm planning to stay awake for it as Le Mans killed me but just incase I happen to be awake at 4am in the morning

Is Ratel's annual SRO Press Conference / State of the Union today or tomorrow? Since I cannot get interested about the race anymore, it's become the highlight for me as there is usually something interesting stored in there.

Spa 24H never had a full 24H coverage, night hours are not broadcasted, also because during the night in the spa circuit there is a mega live dj set and simply nobody cares about the race anymore until the dawn

They're rebuilding the car, expect it to be at the back of the grid for the race.

This is good news. Any idea how much chassis damage was done? Looks like a very high speed impact (as you'd expect around Spa).
