I just don't like the open wheel concept of "blocking" when someone is robustly defending/holding their line.

Peugeot at Le Mans was a completely different scenario with a lapped car.

Anyway, seems the coverage will be exactly the same as Long Beach in terms of commercials. 5-6-minute chunks of racing.

So the P2s have to overdrive to the point of making mistakes to keep up with the DPs...
On a track that if anything should favour P2s over DPs?

What a series we're witnessing.

It's a really difficult place to pass. Very easy for a good driver to place the car effectively, especially if you're in a DP and have the horsepower down the straights.

Hoping this goes FCY-free so the P2s can stop and not change tires.

It was rather boring. A couple FCYs but not much racing in LMPC. On the last lap in GTD Pumpelly ran out of gas out of the corkscrew and Turner got the win.

...and? If he's blocking you into the dirt, I'd rather lift and regroup for a second attempt than drive through the dirt and ruin their race.

Easily this, once you're in the hole and they come over it's a little late to life

Is it just me or does Ricky Taylor seem absolutely terrified every time he's on camera?

And I think the only reason he was alongside Westy so much was because he'd gone too deep.

Albeit #90 has just been pinged. Not sure if IMSA will clarify why.
