Gloves are off at the is last MX5 race of the year. Live now IMSAtv.

 

[Hotrod]

Only at Petit Le Mans weekend do these championships come down to last lap MX5
craziness . A penalty on a different car changed the championship points
in parc ferme. Just crazy !

 

[Kiante]

Wow, looks like WTR is going to be on the backfoot again this year.

Ricky slid those tires pretty far.

Very fortunate to have saved that thing at all.

With Blomqvist securing pole for MSR, it’s a straight-up fight as to who finishes higher between the 10 and 60 and winning the championship tomorrow. It was possible for WTR to have a one-spot buffer if they were to earn more qualifying points today.

 

[Kiante]

Almost that time for this amazing event.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Clear skies, hopefully the off-course areas aren't too soggy.

Ferrari demonstrated they're dry.

Ellow. GTD throw the #10 a bone.

Ricky did a great job right there.

Now they will reset, this race is really on now.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Impressive stint by Hartley so far.

 

[Kiante]

Ben Keating in the barrier in T1.

Wow.

 

[Doc Austin]

So far (2"15 in) the Ganassi cars seem to have the edge. Tight now Helio is setting the Shank car up for a pass, so while early, we could see the championship turn .... or they could crash each other.

I don't think anyone has been hanging it out except for Taylor trying to avoid being lapped. It's still a little early to get racy, but it's been fairly racy anyway.

 

[Kiante]

What was Duval thinking there? He could have easily passed Telitz from T5 onwards.

Greedy.

Endurance Cup leaders up until that point.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Bozi is miffed, rightfully so. This car is junked.

 

[Doc Austin]

That thing is demolished.

NBC didn't show Keating's crash. What happened?

Now I have to wait for the last hours because I don't have peacock. I may have to check out the xfinity race.

 

[Hotrod]

4 hours to go ! Goodness, still a lot to play out.

 

[AuzGrams]

Peacock is the worst.

 

[Kiante]

Is JPM attached to any manufacturers at this point?

 

[Kiante]

Calado might get penalized for that move...

I don’t think so, just LMP2.

Calado might get penalized for that move...

Close one, racing incident imo.


These Turner and Paul Miller BMWs have been inseparable in GTD damn near the whole season.

 

[Kiante]

Vasser-Sullivan race suits glow in the dark?

The easter eggs within that team never cease to surprise.

 

[Kiante]

Van Der Zande is a madman.

How did he get away with that?

 

[FLRacingFan]

Super ballsy stuff from Renger, damn.

 

[AuzGrams]

Night time is the right time.

 

[Kiante]

Argy bargy between the 9 and that looked like the 1 Paul Miller BMW.

 

[Kiante]

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW..

 

[FLRacingFan]

Wtf Earl

 

[Kiante]

Wtf Earl

Idk, Earl left Renger space.

 

[Kiante]

This race is f*cking incredible.

I love IMSA.

 

[Kiante]

Derani is faster than both Acuras.

 

[AuzGrams]

This is actually pretty good stuff for something against college football.

 

[Kiante]

GTD PRO WOW.

VS better give Hawksworth extra for that. That man was getting pushed off and keeps it on the track, holy crap.

 

[FLRacingFan]

what the **** is even happening in GTD Pro

 

[FLRacingFan]

Hawksworth survived all that to hold onto the lead somehow, sheesh.

 

[Kiante]

Wow, wow, wow...

I feel for WTR here.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Omg!

 

[FLRacingFan]

Balls to the wall multi-class racing.

Damn, incredible what this race and championship comes down to each year.
