Battery/hybrid/torque sensor failures are the most frustrating of all failures. They're spec components and the manufacturers and teams have no control over their performance. Could IMSA follow the WRC and dump the stupid hybrid systems completely? Unlikely. |
I sure hope battery/hybrid failures aren't the main story after the race . That would be a shame as Daytona is a great venue/event .
