I really love the fact that IMSA makes it possible for us to watch the race live on YT, something the WEC can learn from.

[@watchnocatch171]

They do, just not live.

[@JSS...]

@@watchnocatch171 I know

[@THELaChode]

This is only new for this year and not available for the US. They still have a ways to go, but it’s a step in the right direction. The US options are littered with advertisements, making it hard to watch at times.

Thank you to IMSA for making this available to watch both live and catch up on YT. You have a new fan here in the UK! Great racing, venues and cars as well as on track team (camera crew in pit lane risking injury for crazy good shots!)

Last 15 minutes was absolutely nail biting, and really good coverage, glad I am watching IMSA alongside WEC this year.

Shay Adam is amazing in the pitlsne. Never misses a single thing and is quickfire with everything happening around her.

[@Obsidion311]

I love watching the racing, but I really wish you guys would turn up the mix on the car/engine sounds. The WEC channel has a great balance with the audio mix and it makes it a much more immersive watching experience.

[@danielgreensides8463]

Thanks IMSA for posting this on KZbin! You guys rock!

So much better this year not having to wait for the races to make their way onto YT a few weeks after the event, kept inadvertently catching the results b4 getting to watch the races last year, not so this year, THANKS IMSA!

I like to compliment companies when they do do something good and streaming these races to KZbin is a very good thing. I can never watch them as they come out but for the thousands of others this is good keep doing it we love it.

[@BrianK04]

Just so IMSA is aware, people subscribed to this youtube channel don't get a new video notification when this is enabled to be viewed in United States on Thursday. It appears to us as a 3 day old video with no notification it was posted.

Having grown up at this facility, IMSA was, and still is one of my favorite events to grace the track. Another victory for ROGER PENSKI.

Finally an IMSA race without a yellow every 30 minutes !!! And see, no need to gather the field artificially to get a thrilling race. Great battles, overtakes, strategy. And errors are paid cash. The best wins, not the luckiest.

Advantage of live streams who are live is, you can watch the race the day after the race, if you cant watch it like me, because i have to go to work very early (living in switzerland)

Weird how there wasn't a camera on any of the people being interviewed at the end of the race. Also strange how leaderboards never show the manufacturer. Very annoying.

[@insideracer]

How did the #6 not get a penalty for overtaking under SC? IMSA is handing out so many stupid penalties for the slightest mistakes, especially when GTD am drivers to small mistakes, but overtaking under SC seems to be allowed now? That's actually insane...

[@martinohnenamen6147]

The scoring tree with classes color coded but reflecting the race order on the road much better than the tree split according to classes. Especially for the GTD the one split according to classes is rather confusing.

[@Poseiden2]

Great race, as ever. Not sure about some of the directing of the lead battle (I can understand when there's another lead battle, but not when it switches to a GTD running on its own)!

[@pikestance8851]

I do not see why IMSA goes out of its way to be as confusing as possible. The graphics do not tell you the make of the cars, which will make it infinitely easy to follow if they did. Instead, there is a graphic that tells you what class despite it being color-coded. LOL. Plus, GTP, GTD Pro, GTD,... really. Just call what they are, Pro. Prototype, anything really. More importantly, put the make in graphic.

[@maxberg9383]

Let’s gooooo #6

[@henkvandervliet8746]

Never understand why they called it gtd and it are gt3 cars...

[@SnakezF1]

The d stands for Daytona

[@joaquingonzalez834]

GTD was the lowest class when the IMSA SportsCar Championship was declared (which used GT3 cars and others like the porsche 911 north america), alongside GTLM (LM GTE cars) now GTLM doesn't exist, while GTD used solely GT3 cars from 2016, and in 2022 GTD Pro replaced GTLM

The crowd seems very scarce. Shame. Especially comparing to Spa last weekend (88 000 people). Laguna Seca looks like a race in Covid times - no spectators

[@abcjelly]

@EclipseTurboGST as some1 from europe, i think americans prefer oval racing & street racing than road course racing.

[@ItsNevrand.]

​@@abcjelly Thats really sad to hear if true, especially since the US has some amazing tracks like Road America, Laguna Seca, The Glen, and Road Atlanta just to name a few.

[@CJ-gh4eh]

I was there, it was not. People just don't like the grand stands at Laguna. People go up the hills! Massive crowd. The pitwalk was crazy!

[@tolldoll1007]

​@@abcjelly False.

[@Renvah]

Those IMSA rules are absurd. 20 minutes of Safety Car that reshuffles the field and breaks the flow of the race for a simple debris on the track that could've been solved by one quick lap of FCY.

The abuse of track limits on turn 5 is ridiculous. Laguna Seca should dig out some of that pavement and bring the gravel closer to the curb.

[@itsjeffreyab]

Formula 1 should have a race here instead of Vegas.

[@colind1062]

That would be amazing. But it would require a massive investment to make it an fia grade 1 circuit

[@smrg28]

Classic strategic race for Penske No.6. They took track position by short replenishment at 1st FCY, and flying 2nd stint with lighter tank (Of course bit of luck of not deploying FCY).

[@fredlacroix6865]

rexy did it

[@nothanks3590]

people think BOP is trying to make all the cars in a class equal. it isnt. BOP gets cars within plus or minus % of the median. so certain cars/teams are allowed to be +5% better than median and other cars are intentionally put at -5%. so that means the favored cars/teams have a +10% performance advantage over the unfavored cars/teams. not quite WWE level of fixing but IMSA is in no way a legitimate competition.
