99 goes off track in turn 7 and gets going again.

# 6 Penske having it's rear wing changed during it's stop.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Penske just had a very un-Penske like pit stop.

I find it ironic we have to give up coverage of the 12 hours of Sebring so we can watch a rain delay of a Nascar practice. I know, market size and all, but talk about a waste of time! Hope I can get FSGo working...

I really want CJ Wilson to do well with his new car. In a quick interview with Marshall Pruett (on the racer magazine's YT) he mentioned prospects after this and it's LMP2 because you can get into Le Mans and compete for overall wins (hopefully). We'll see about that but I really hope he gets an LMP2 DPi in a year or two. And by 2020 we have no idea what racing will look like in WEC and IMSA so by then anything could be possible.

#3 back in the garage. Day possibly done.

 

[DesertPenguin]

So the #4 will win the race?

 

[Dylan]

#10 pushing water. Possible overheating issues. And ten almost gets turned by the 41 Audi coming out of the pits.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

No action on the 10 and 44 incident.

 

[Dylan]

#3 back in the garage. Day possibly done.

Nope. Back on track.

 

[Organ-Donor]

Nope. Back on track.

How many laps back are they now?

And man the RLL BMW M8 sound like the Audi LMP1's, all you hear is a swissshh when they go by, so quiet.

 

[GTRacer22]

How many laps back are they now?

Too many.

 

[Organ-Donor]

Too many.

 

[GTRacer22]

All we can do is hope for a miracle with the #4.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Any idea how the #46 NSX got it's front left eye bashed in?

 

[Dylan]

How many laps back are they now?

16 laps down to the Ferrari.

 

[GTRacer22]

Any idea how the #46 NSX got it's front left eye bashed in?

Contact with #52 in pits. Improper release.

 

[Dylan]

Any idea how the #46 NSX got it's front left eye bashed in?

Pulled out of its pit while a p2 car was coming into its. Contact was made.

I wish we had a helicopter view the entire race. This is the best way to see gaps actually ebb and flow

Edit: That sucks for the #36. Stupid mistake

 

[DesertPenguin]

A whole drive through for #55 just for braking into the back of another car? If neither car is damaged can't it just be a time penalty?

Time penalties require the car to still be running at the end.

 

[DesertPenguin]

And they can't do a slowdown on track like in video games. I wonder why they think that makes sense.

 

[Organ-Donor]

All we can do is hope for a miracle with the #4.

Hey they had only 1 car in LeMans few years ago when Jan wrecked in practice and they ended up winning.

 

[Eh Team]

Time penalties require the car to still be running at the end.

Hey you. You stop that right now, Mazda will finish this race dammit.

Edit: And as I say that the brakes on the 77 are shot. Crap.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Easy-up blew onto the track. Another yellow finally?

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Someone's EZ-Up just blew on to the track.

 

[GTRacer22]

That's a new one. Who needs water bottles to throw when you can get a tent? NASCAR needs to step up their game.

In fairness I think NASCAR has a gazebo beat:

Completely forgot about the infamous Tropicana orange.

 

[Dylan]

Huh... interesting...
