Which app are you using , HBO ?

Amazon Prime on Apple TV

Edit: FP3 is not in 4K. Incidentally it says “TNT Sports 3 Live” in the top corner, whereas Qualifying didn’t. It just said TNT sports. Will check Hyperpole later

So Genesis does improve again ? Wow !
BMW looks like a serious threat.

FP3 results
Alpine finally broke the 350 km/h wall : 350,7 km/h

20 minutes before Hyperpole.

That's what happens when you're too eager to pop the champagne. #15 takes the Pole Position from the #38 Cadillac after a deleted lap.
 
Is it worth using the FIA WEC+ app? It seems to have changed since I last used it, now have to download a completely new app.

So qualifying was not in 4k, but now FP4 is! Very bizarre.

Absolutely, yes. It is a new app so you may need to set up a new account.

It works perfectly well for me, and has unbroken, ad-free coverage of every session. It also has live timing as well, though I haven't tried using both at the same time.

I paid £45 for the whole season, so it's also still a very fair price.

My lovely sister picked these up for me yesterday, as well as printing out a Spotters Guide for me 😍

I think WEC should make a deal with IMSA to do Daytona 24 hours as the American round. February would push Le Mans further into the middle of the season.

No more AWD. All will be RWD hybrids. Hopefully the rules convergence & related cost benefits will encourage the manufacturers to run in IMSA as well.



Strong driver lineup for Ford


Ford has signed Matt Campbell, Nick Yelloly and Tom Blomqvist for its entry into the Hypercar class of the World Endurance Championship in 2027.

Potential new Genesis GT3 - just a concept for now

I do like AWD (I had an A3 Quattro in my youth!) - I think the Toyota concept is really clever. I wonder if that was a compromise to appease the IMSA stakeholders
 
That Matt Campbell switch to Ford makes me think someone wants him in a Mustang GT3 at Bathurst 12H and maybe the 1000. There are no conflicts on the calendar for February and October 2027.

That was my first thought too. I’d love to see him reunite with the Grove’s, especially now that they’re solid contenders.
