What a door slammer from start to finish. IMSA is currently the best series alongside WEC for competitive racing. LMP2s doing silly things. The race leader wrecking out. And those final battles with hawksworth going full elbows out and that last battle between deletraz and bourdais. Absolutely smashing.
Been watching from the UK on and off for a while here in the UK. You do very good reporting so I've subscribed. Thanks.
Thanks Paul! Glad you're enjoying it!
Glad to be subbed to this channel
Glad you’re enjoying it!!!
Enjoying the longer in depth reports ty. This is the type of coverage I wanted as a kid in the 70s and 80s. Where you were lucky to find anything about sports car racing on TV or newspaper. Other than auto week, Even car mags had very little.
Sebring was so much fun!
Also, GO WTR!
It was a fun race from start to finish. That Caddical crash was scary to watch. Will you ever cover the 12 hours series? Nice video. Keep up the good work.
Covering more series is all a question of how much time I have, right now I dedicate all of that time to focus on IMSA but would love to cover some WEC, GTWC and 24hr series if time ever allows!
Thanks for the shout out for our car. (Sean creech motorsport)
That was a fun race, even more fun to be your livestream chat talking all things racing, hope we get more of that in the future!
I will be doing it whenever I'm available to in the future! It was a fun time!
I’m just glad WTR managed their first win in the GTP class. Especially after the disappointments of last year
Banger of a race with an unfortunate finish, ut was a blast eatching this with you and some of the other viewers Stu! Cant wait for tue next round🔥🔥🦖💚
Thanks for hanging out, it was a ton of fun and I’ll definitely be doing them whenever I am available!!
And that's how fast half of the racing hours for the 2024 IMSA Season are over again. Time flies when times are good...
Man, I hadn't thought of that! Still so much good racing to come though!
We got an IMSA 2025 schedule before GTA6
Talking about questionable driving towards the end, bourdais’ shenanigans with constantly rubbing up against the 40 were most certainly something worth mentioning.
Great video, mate!
Personally finally seeing Acura win was such a great moment! (Obvious bias)
That Deletraz signing was an absolute moment of genius, how no one had any eyes on him (as far as we know) is crazy to me
Ohhhh I think Wayne Taylor had a very close eye on him and after his performances last year in their car it was a no brainer that he needed to be full time!
@@offintheesses Yeah that for sure! I more-so meant finding and hiring him in 2022 for the 2023 MEC rounds!
@@LOstere oh yeah he did a great job in scouting him for that MEC seat a couple of years ago! He now looks like one of those drivers you build a team around!
I was one of the 3% that did not think it was a good race. The safety car frequency and the overly aggressive driving standards are the reasons.
You know whats the weirdest take with Sebring? That if they took away the bumps, it would be boring. I find that shocking, because there are mods and old games from before laser scanning was possible, and it still drew big entries in sim-races. Resurfacing would absolutely make it "not sebring", but i genuinely believe the races would be just as close and entertaining.
I had a lot of fun watching the race, but I do agree with the driving standards. Sometimes watching imsa/wec I feel like Im watching an iracing lobby. Thats hyperbole but yeah.
9:16: Ryan Dalziel is from Scotland and his last name has an odd pronunciation. It is DAY-el.
Before I recorded this I watched an interview of his to make sure I was going to say his name right. Clearly it didn’t work as here we are again with me butchering his name. I’m going to say it right one of these days
Yeah, we are getting more and more International teams and drivers, and that means the mentality all attack all the time, and never give track position no matter how many laps you are down. The lest few hours were really good, but overall it was a crash-fest for sure. In his carrier, Sébastien Bourdais has done far worse than anything the 40 car did at the end of the race. He is a great guy off the track, and he's mellowed out more over the years. Action Express and Ferrari crash, I don't think the Ferrari was checking his mirrors, but Action Express didn't give any room or flash the lights or something else. Kegg's crash was inexcusable, the 6 car was a faster car, and faster cars are told not to mess up slower cars' races. And, yes I was annoyed by Rexy punting the Chevy, but that was GTD on GTD action.
Interesting in highlighting the poor driving standards you omitted Hawksworth dive bombing the Corvette and almost taking their nose off and then running the Ferrari off track wide in T1 all with 20mins to go.
If I highlighted all the instances of it this would be an hour long video.
@@offintheesses LOL, true.
@offintheesses AWA #13 carvette is for sale 👀
The 13 is safe but unfortunately the 17 looks like it is no more :(
@@offintheesses maybe rable rock racing might buy it since they was thinking about joining GTD but there with Austen marten
@@dannyjohnson1287 Yeah they were actually rumoured as one of the teams looking for a Corvette to race in GTD with!
@@offintheesses if there at CTMP you might be able to ask them if the carvette still for sale hopefully we get an update on it soon
@@dannyjohnson1287 the team isn't the one selling the car, Anthony owns it and is the one selling so so the team may not even know!
I feel like the masses believe the #31 is the "dominant car", but when I go back and think about the races including last year. Which races did the #31 truly dominate?
Wasn't their only race win gifted to them by the WTR and Penske crash at Sebring last year? I'd say it was more consistent than dominant.
I don't get why the 31 was pushing so hard with so much time left in this race?
