Ferrari looked favorites on the long run pace. Also, feeling a little bad for Cadillac as they have a good one lap pace car but horrendous on race pace. Expected a little more from Peugeot and Alpine.
Race over, congrats Ferrari #83, beautiful practically flawless race, 3 wins in a row for Ferrari.
Do not come here and tell me this was a BoP win:
* Porsche #6 had the exact same top speed as Ferrari #83, 345.6kph
* Only 1 SC that came out after Ferrari got a rain of penalties, and if I'm not mistaken the only penalty handed after after the SC was a 5s penalty for #50.
* Ferrari #50 couldn't pass the Porsche #6 on track.
* Toyota #8 broke down or they would have been right there as well with Porsche and Ferrari
9 cars finished on the leading lap, would have been 10 without the #8 issues, only 1 SC and not a 6 hour long one like last year. As predicted, the extra pitstops due to Stint Energy lost the race for #50 and #51 that had no new tires at the end while Porsche spent the last 2 hours of the race on a newer tire than #50 and #51. #83 took a much easier approach to the race that allowed them to pit one time less, also Ferrari #50 lost a set of tires due to puncture after only half a stint.
This was a good race overall, Ferrari certainly dominated but the BoP didn't have that much to do with it.
At least Porsche won in LMGT3. But good job to the #6 team, that last to 2nd was not easy and that DSQ did cost them. But it is what it is. Great job to them!
