Jeez - the guy made a mistake in the heat of a long race with the so-so vis you get in a P2 car, and upon return to the pits he immediately ran to the corvette team to apologize to each-and-every-member in person. No excuses. In this day and age of "it's never my fault" I applaud that and it's almost more memorable than a corvette victory that may or may not have happened... Honestly I'm more shocked that the Corvette lost that battle, I'd have expected the tiny P2 car to bounce off it.. Anyway I'll throw the first stone after I run the 24hrs of Le Mans myself (I hear Perrodo was given a free 992 build slot by Porsche - just kidding!!!)

Next year should be awesome, with the amazing new hypercars (the BMW and Peugeot in particular look fantastic) - I may go in person to see that one...New era... The current prototypes with zero competition for toyota was getting boring (not their fault, though).
