#01 Cadillac is trying to impersonate a cop car out there! Tandy in the #6 963 is gaining on the leader.
The #01 Cadillac takes the win in the 2024 Petit Le Mans! What an amazing finish for this partnership.
The #23 Aston Vantage GTE can only manage 3rd-in-class, meaning that AO Racing snatches this years GTD Pro title from the jaws of defeat!
And Rexy is ahead by a four-point deficit, especially considering IMSA's points system which would have left the folks at AO Racing scratching their heads and biting their nails.The #01 Cadillac takes the win in the 2024 Petit Le Mans! What an amazing finish for this partnership.

I didn't watch the race I was out of town. But Lamborghini is pulling out of Hypercar in WEC next year? Why would they do that?Some of the interviews and comments made me sad:
- BMW won't build gtp cars for customers, because "the gt3 machinery is already too complicated"...
- Lamborghini entering a second sc63 next year, but (probably) pulling the existing car out for the next wec season
About the race:
- the accident with the ford mustang and the leading acura was terrifying and heartbreaking (And I'm not even a fan of acura gtp ), great that both drivers were not physically injured
- some of the lambo gt3 cars were performing very well, the gtd pro car with Pepper onboard and the two in the top 6 in the gtd class
- bad luck for the iron dames, but at least they finished the race
- one of the proton mustangs set a new record by not finishing a single race this season
- the battles in lmp2 made me realize how much I miss them in the wec
Overall the race was very entertaining (no hours long fcy or rad flags) and I'm excited for the next season
Fully committing to a full season of IMSA I believe.I didn't watch the race I was out of town. But Lamborghini is pulling out of Hypercar in WEC next year? Why would they do that?
For the longer races only.Fully committing to a full season of IMSA I believe.

They ran the longer races in IMSA this year. But if they pull out of WEC that means no LeMans. It just doesn't make sense.For the longer races only.
No official statements yet from any side.But Lamborghini is pulling out of Hypercar in WEC next year? Why would they do that?
If I'm not mistaken, Audi's Customer Support ends after this year so the F1 IS their only Motorsport program. They already stopped factory racing GT3 for several years now.No official statements yet from any side.
My guess: it' has something to do with the parent companies (audi & vw) and the aco requiring factory teams to run two cars. audi is struggling with their motorsport program (f1 & gt3) and vw has a crisis (in the eu) and considers closing down plants & laying off up to 30k employees in germany.
Sounds like it is the two car requirement that they are concerned about.No official statements yet from any side.
