I guess it's not exactly a surprise given the Andretti-Cadillac F1 project, but Wayne Taylor Andretti will be dumping Honda/Acura and running a 2-car Cadillac team next year in IMSA. Sounds like the 2-car Cadillac WEC program will go to someone like United Auto Sports.

And supposedly Meyer Shank will pick back up with Acura . Silly season :D

The future of endurance sports car racing at Spa today. The Alpine Alpenglow hydrogen ICE powered car. These will be eligible to compete for the overall win at Le Mans in 2027. Demo runs on track tomorrow. Thank god we won't have to suffer the indignity of archaic battery EVs!

30th anniversary of Ayrton Senna's fatal crash. Pfaff Motorsport is running a tribute livery on their GT3 McLaren this weekend at Laguna Seca.

Also, it's Porsche-Porsche-Cadillac-Porsche-Porsche-Ferrari-Ferrari at Spa right now. 5+ hours to go. Pole sitting Ferrari was DQ'd due to being underweight.

Porsche 6 & 7 in practice. Half way thru

2 hour red flag in Spa! Instead of letting time run out, they've added 1:50 or so to the clock. Unfortunately, Motortrend coverage has ended with Porsche 1-2.

A good day to be Porsche at Spa. Porsche 1-2 in Hypercar. Porsche 1-2 in LMGT3.

Hertz Team Jota for the win ...

And at Laguna Seca, a day that started with Porsche 4 & 5 on the GTP grid and in GTD 6, ended up with Porsche 1 & 3 in GTP and first in GTD. Great drives. Great strategy

^^^ A weekend sweep! Hopefully, a prelude to Le Mans.

Yay Rexy!

I was surprised to read this morning that Jota's win at Spa was the first WEC victory by a privately owned Porsche since 1989 and the Joest 962C with Bob Wollek and Frank Jelenski!

Porsche 1-2 in qualifying for Detroit. First time this year Cadillac hasn't been on pole. Race at 3.

The Good news: Diffey is going to start calling NASCAR races for NBC this month! :D

The Bad news: not sure if this is 'instead of' or 'in addition to' IMSA and Indycar :rolleyes:

Well, a good race for Porsche in one class.

Otherwise it was a clown show.
