    I hope that Roman De Angelis gets a ride in that incredible Aston GTP. I’ve been following his career from the beginning. He’s so incredibly talented ( like so many of the IMSA drivers ) but I believe that he’s a perfect fit for the Aston Martin program. Lamborghini leaving the WEC can only be a positive for IMSA. It sure would be awesome to have one or even two Lamborghini teams full time in IMSA. The 2025 season is gonna be insane. Peace !

    Lamborghini is completely backing out of WEC, including the GT3 entries, but as far as im aware Lamborghini will stil be a part of IMSA including both the GTP and GT3 entries, looking at their performance this year they clearly performed much better in IMSA, so maybe they want to put 100% focus into IMSA to increase their chances for success, who knows, theres a lot more politics and corruption within the FIA vs IMSA, manufacturers like Ferrari and Toyota could be paying the FIA for more favorable BoP

    • @freyala024
      @freyala024 12 днів тому

      Lamborghini is pulling out of WEC because the car is compromised in its current state and they can't afford to both give the car the development it needs and run a second entry which is mandated by WEC regulations in 2025. They actually had extremely generous BoP, pretty much running at the minimum weight and max power allowed by the regs all year, they just couldn't take advantage of it because as I said, the car is compromised (they had a big testing accident last year and had to rush the homologation before the car was ready). As for your comment of Ferrari and Toyota ''paying for favorable BoP'', that's complete nonsense, BoP tables are publically available for every round and they both had the worst BoP all year, Toyota in particular was always the heaviest car. Maybe try to actually inform yourself before talking out of your ass 🤡

They do a good job with gtp, i saw the Lamborghini run at sebring, it is a beautiful piece of shit, way off pace ​@freyala024

    • @mathewhosier9739
      @mathewhosier9739 12 днів тому

      Nope, Lamborghini has realized how corrupt and political the FIA and WEC have become, for all we know bigger manufacturers like Ferrari, Porsche and Toyota could be paying the FIA for more favorable BoP, WEC and IMSA have different BoP, which is why we always see the same teams and cars winning WEC races but IMSA has way more competition within their GTP class, the point of BoP is to create more competition on track, not competition between manufacturers to see who can sign the biggest check, why are European based motorsports always so much more political

    • @Yosh1az
      @Yosh1az 12 днів тому

      What exactly are you talking about? Toyota, Ferrari, and Porsche have continuously negative BOP ratings; they are always the heaviest and least powerful throughout the WEC season. The reason those cars outperform their competitors is because they are so good at working their cars to adjust to unfavorable BOP ratings. Even with a good BoP, Lamborghini's SC63 lacks the speed to keep up with its competitors; the car simply sucks.

    Pilot is my favorite racing series - not just in IMSA, but "period". That being said - It needs a few changes, IMO... 1) Officials need to employ GS "BoP" better: the mid-engine Porsches and McLarens (or any other m-e marques that join) either need to have their weight-balance advantages effectively nullified through it, or be excluded. 2) The staggered start grids for GS and TCR were a much-needed change, but - while it stopped the first-lap mayhem between the fastest TCR/slowest GS drivers that often happened prior - it's still insufficient on several circuits. Global rules may prohibit it, but I'd like to see the TCRs lose some hp, so that even the least-talented (I'm talking about you - Ted Giovanis and Frank DePew) GS drivers won't be caught for many laps, barring an "off" by them. If nothing else, the staggered starts need to be even more so.

    @williamford9564 24 дні тому

    I don't understand the connection between a car that is going to produce only electric cars with IMSA. With the electric car market collapsing in the US and Europe, there is little chance that the electric car market will be anywhere near where some of the companies are hyping it will be when this company plans to come to the US. I think it is highly likely that at some point they pull out of IMSA and possibly cancel its US ambitions before the so called intended launch date. And read the papers. The Volkswagen Group has announced that it intending to close German plants FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY. The market is tanking and projects like this will be easy to cut and cancel if things do not improve.

    Personally, I would have Laguna Seca as a Michelin Endurance Cup race. That race would be 4 hours. Montreal in my opinion would be a 2 hour and 40 minute race. And when it comes to Road America, I would like to see IMSA bring back the Road America 500 but I don’t see that happening
