For all those complaining about this track being on the calender, it's just another part of the challenge in winning a title. A championship wouldn't be of this level if it was all on the same track. Variety is king.

I am still confused about the ruling here for the final positions, particularly in GTLM. Technically all of those cars passed under local yellow, which is a stop-and-hold, or a time penalty tacked on to the end of the race. The acceptable solution, and one that would have typically been put in place during a blocked track situation should have been to go back and freeze the final order where the cars entered the local yellow.

As of right now the results as they finished are final. Garcia in the 3 car was said to have been involved in the incident, thereby legitimizing passing the 4 car under a local yellow. IMSA officials said they could not throw a full-course caution at the time of the accident because the overall leader had already taken the checkered flag.

This track is tough with that last hairpin and nowhere for cars to go if it's blocked but I blame the screwed up race on the bad drivers in the field that decide to dive bomb the cars in front of them there and the officials for inconsistent rulings. They need clear rules about what happens if the track is blocked too. I guess it's just a free for all right there if the yellow flags are waving.
@seanmcmanus73667 жыл бұрын
Dethmeister I agree. That was crazy they didn't go full course caution and freeze the field - all but last 30 minutes was extremely disappointing. I think they should just go back to PRO only race no GTD. It's was too much. Granted it was DPI and GTLM on lap one. But Ed isn't exactly pro driver ... but if it wasn't for GTD would could have had clean finish
@Dethmeister7 жыл бұрын
Yeah but a GTLM Porsche did it too at 58:36 , just like last year. Also a GTLM BMW that was out of contention almost did the same thing to the race leading DPi's at that hairpin at 01:45:44 . Then at 01:51:55 when the 3 GTD cars wrecked at the hairpin, the track is actually being blocked by a DPi that has plenty of room to go but is just stopped for no reason. That cost the leading Corvette a win.
