Perfect timing for the afternoon shift here in the UK! No one will be getting a peep out of me today, thanks IMSA!

[@mathewhosier9739]

Both, lmp1 cars don't race anymore and gt500, super formula and formula 2 aren't as fast, DPI prototypes have less horsepower, are heavier and have less downforce

[@EikeSky]

@@mathewhosier9739 I think you might've replied to the wrong comment my dude. Pretty sure you're correct, but I have NO idea what you're replying to, sorry.

Love the coverage by the whole IMSA broadcast team....John, Shea, Jeremy, etc etc...all do such a great job and are really fun to listen to....the knowledge they pass on to viewers is awesome! keep up the great work!

We love this IMSA Sportscar Championship. We'll miss you DPis but hello GTP

[@stephenlatimer1428]

thx IMSA. well done to both Porsches n also the DPI winner.

[@jeremysinaz3580]

Love this track, thanx IMSA for another excellent upload.

Los Acura ganaron esta carrera desde el principio con una diferencia de 25 seg, increíble. Abrazos y gracias IMSA.

[@adamb3129]

Great race at Laguna Seca as always! I know a lot of this is out of your control, but will commercials continue on Peacock? So far we had no ads on there but for this race there were so many that myself and others stopped watching the NBC broadcast entirely. As a fan of IMSA some more details would be nice so that there are no more surprises in the future.

[@imsaofficial]

@Adam B I would recommend email [e-mail]. We were aware that some viewers were receiving commercials, others had a black screen display for commercial breaks and it just wasn't consistent. The matter is being addressed with NBC but I would defer to the above email for more information. Thanks!

[@adamb3129]

@@imsaofficial Thanks! Hopefully it’s being worked on.

[@mathewhosier9739]

That's all NBC, IMSA has no control over that

[@theflagstand]

I know that by commenting here my message may not get to the people who it concerns. But I'd love if the commentators/pit reporters wouldn't discuss the results or events of the support races, at least if they're like the Michelin Pilot Challenge or the prototype challenge, races that get posted here later. It's frustrating when you can't watch those races before the main event and then Hindhaugh or somebody else spoils the result and ruins the fun. Thanks for the uploads anyway.

I'm watching this just a few days after a quite boring Le Mans 2022... (Except for the Corvette Racing disaster that is!) What a great show IMSA proves to be each and every time, compared to any WEC event this year... Awesome stuff, great comments by John Hindhaugh too! Grtz from Belgium 😉

[@hayabusa27]

Would love to see the Lamborghini race, it was epic!

[@imsaofficial]

They are both now available.

[@BeauAlbert]

Don't get me wrong, great Broadcast, race, series, blah blah blah, but can we get more Dog content like we had in the first minute of this video? 😂

[@jacklb4152]

Wheres the michelin pilot challenge 120 replay? Was one of the highlights of the weekend.

[@imsaofficial]

It's now available. Michelin Pilot Challenge races will always be posted the day following the TV broadcast. Thanks!

Finally 😭

[@RSIM1X]

IMSA What is the Deal Fam? why do you keep copyrighting my GRAN TURISMO gameplay??? is Laguna Seca Yours? Is Michelin Raceway YOURS? I really don't get it

[@AT-cn2gu]

wonder why they changed it to spring race from a late summer race previously

[@imsaofficial]

This is actually the traditional date for the race at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. The race had been pushed previously to late summer due to COVID-19/restrictions in California.

Someone tell Hindhaugh to stop talking over Jeremy Shaw.

[@robertlindsay6622]

Just missed an important pass in LMP 2! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK TV DIRECTOR! !

[@adamb3129]

In multi class racing you’re never going to capture every single pass.

[@SamosirSimbolon]

👍👍👍

[@donholl]

"SPOILER" BELOW! . . . . . Based on the way they ran away from much of the reasonably-bunched GT-Pro pack - I'm guessing Stuttgart bitched and moaned until they finally got the kind of BoP they want. Hopefully, Campbell/Jaminet have way more results like Long Beach than Monterey lying ahead...

[@tedzehnder961]

What I don`t get is why Corvette racing is so slow?

[@mathewhosier9739]

That's what happens when you try to de tune a faster car to compete in a slower class, it's a gte car competing in a gt3 class, IMSA obviously doesn't want Corvette to dominate so they go too far on the bop, it wouldn't be that way if Chevrolet would allow customer teams but the suits at Chevrolet are being ignorant, and this is why Chevrolet isn't taken seriously in the racing world

[@mathewhosier9739]

As an American sports car fan this is very frustrating

[@adamb3129]

@@mathewhosier9739 That’s not at all what’s happening with Corvette. IMSA is still trying to find a balance that’s good. Corvette had really good pace at Sebring and Long Beach. Obviously IMSA aren’t going to put the BoP that one car always wins. The people at Chevrolet aren’t doing anything wrong. Customer teams have nothing to do with BoP so I don’t understand how that is at all relevant, and they will have customer cars in 2024. No one is going to buy a customer C8.R even if it were available. GM is taken very seriously in the racing world.

[@merlingt1]

“Balance of Outcomes”

[@Lancr-jq2or]

@@adamb3129 Exactly. They didn't have a GT3 car so instead of building one they used the GTE car with diffetent aero and specs. People just comment crap and don't think and do a little research and common sense. The other teams are doing better because they already had gt3 cars.

[@cardo9495]

Where are the Lamborghinis Super Trofeos? :(

IMSA races are uploaded to KZbin and IMSA.com after their TV broadcast. Thanks!

[@mathewhosier9739]

Im normally a huge supporter of IMSA but you can tell they do their own BOP separate from the FIA, and they clearly got it wrong for this race, we almost had a bunch of individual races going on between each individual make, the oreca Acura dpi's had a clear advantage over the dallara Cadillacs, and Porsche had a clear advantage in gt3, the only reason lmp2 was balanced and competitive was because every lmp2 team uses an oreca

[@narwhalyt7231]

It’s kinda hard, the Acuras usually have an advantage on these fast, flowing tracks with short straights because of their aero and the lighter V6 engine. While there is a bop, the individual cars still maintain their specific advantages, which is what I kinda like about sports car racing.

[@mathewhosier9739]

@@narwhalyt7231 it's what I don't like about sports car and f1, you never know who are the best drivers because there's always an artificial advantage with one car or another, racing skill should be the biggest factor and it's just not here

[@narwhalyt7231]

@@mathewhosier9739 I always watch NASCAR and Indycar for the drivers. Sports Cars I’ve always seen as a battle between the manufacturers, not so much the drivers. F1 used to be the same way but now the rules let the cars be so expensive that it’s had to become a driver’s game.

[@adamb3129]

The FIA/ACO get their BoP wrong all the time as well. Some cars have certain strengths and at those tracks they will always have an advantage. Acura was faster here and will be quicker at Mid Ohio. Cadillac was quicker at Sebring and Long Beach. Porsche have always done well here. Also I would hope IMSA use their own BoP because there are no DPis in WEC.

[@12th.jahlil]

Then watch spec series championships like indycar or porsche cup@@mathewhosier9739

[@lonnieball3002]

THE COMMENTARY WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE FROM THE BEGINNING.

[@imsaofficial]

@Lonnie Ball Apologies but we can hear race commentary from green flag to checkered. Keep in mind, IMSA Radio are remote and if there are initial connection issues when the live feed comes up, we cannot delay the proceedings. So yes, there were some beauty shots shown prior to the race where there was no commentary. THANKS FOR YOUR FEEDBACK!

[@USAF-SF]

IMSA is going the way of NASCAR and creating a terrible product with the GT Daytona class, might as well not even have a designated PRO class, because the speed differential is practically non-existent. Bring back the old IMSA classes and the product will be more interesting, NASCAR sucks horribly and you can tell by the lack of seats filled at their races, and with better promotion and better class distinction IMSA could actually HAVE some seats filled. Time to wake up IMSA if you want to maintain interest in this series...

[@shaadydog1]

Lol they keep ending to every euro trash complaint… ffs a few years back when they totally took Ferrari out of contention Porche had a bigger inlet than the Vettes did and yet the Porche was faster in practice everywhere. That was the year Ferrari could barely pass GTD Lexus . Remember them allowing BMW a non homologated car about 10-12 years ago? Audi sponsered the ALMS and got away with murder for Diesel rules… it’s been a joke of a sport since they went to the NA v10 formula.
