2018 24 Hour Le Manns
 
1 Attachment(s)
I didn't see the race (forgot it was THIS PAST W/E:o), but I saw a quote of Gavin's (one of the drivers of the #63 Chevrolet C7R) promising to do better* in 2019 than the mediocre showing in the (just finished) 2018 Le Manns. (Wonder what he meant? Does anyone besides me see that ELEPHANT in the room?)

Read 'em and weep....

Rank TTL Laps
17 92 Porsche 911 RSR GTE Pro 344

20 67 Ford GT GTE Pro 343
21 63 Chevrolet Corvette C7R GTE Pro 342

Corvette #64 = DNF (ended after 259 laps)

I think the current rules favored the Porsches and Fords this year. They'll probably make a change and it will swing the other way. They're trying to keep all manufacturers happy. If one is winning too much, others might decide the cost (and shame?) isn't worth it. I would have liked seeing the yellow Corvettes up front, but there were some pretty good races all through the field. I enjoyed watching Sebastien Bourdais chase down Porsches, and the old liveries (Pink Pig and Rothmans) were pretty cool.
