  • Endurance Chat S8E9 - The Hypercar Era has arrived! 2023 6 Hours of Spa Francorchamps Review

    In the return of Cookie and Flood's intimate hour (and a half), Austin and Michael chat all things Spa Francorchamps off the back of possibly the best WEC event since 2016. We talk Tyre Warmers, Eau Rouge, multiclass traffic, LMP2 liveries, GT drivers, and gush at just about everything that Spa presented the 72,000 fans that were at the circuit, before catching up on some sportscar news, and taking a quick peek at the 2023 Le Mans entry list. Hope you enjoy!
