Introduction IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach No GTD Pro at Long Beach this year, GTP and GTD only Qualifying Vasser Sullivan front row lockout for GTD 31 AXR Cadillac on pole for GTP after an eventful session → Pipo Derani with the bin it and win it strategy (locked up and got into the tire barriers but still managed to get pole position) Argy Bargy between Bourdais and Rockenfeller Race Good race or no? #12 Vasser Sullivan Lexus gets a penalty for moving out of line before the start Good battle between Porsche, BMW, and Cadillac, BMW continuing their streak on bungled strategy calls (0-3 now) → Ended up leaving Yelloly out too long after everyone else pitted, and then a yellow came out #25 BMW and #6 Porsche trade blows First race where the Mustang GT3s did not have bodywork issues (Insert confetti noise) Race starts out calm, then delves into chaos later: #70 Inception McLaren gets into the wall, then collects the #120 Porsche GTD with it WTR Acura crashes going into turn 1 again (this time it’s the 40!) Felipe Nasr and Connor De Phillippi go at → De Phillippi gets into the back of the #7 Porsche (just a little love tap!) Chaos at the hairpin → #6 Porsche Penske gets spun after contact from a Lambo GTD (Lambo was later penalized for the contact, maybe not necessary), this leads to everyone checking up and causing an extremely silly traffic jam situation #25 gets more damage from the incident → front end damage and rear damage, gets repaired but then ends up in the tire barriers later, officially taking the car out of contention # 01 Cadillac brake checks the #31 01 Cadillac wins in GTP (the strategy of taking no tires worked out for them) #89 Vasser Sullivan wins in GTD IndyCar Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach Pre-Race stuff F2 Champion Theo Pourchaire fills in for David Malukas at Arrow McLaren → Recovery for Malukas taking longer than expected as there are still pins in his arm Qualifying Arrow McLaren disaster class unfortunately → none made it to the final round of qualifying Felix Rosenqvist on pole Race Good race or no? McLaren’s troubles continue Pato gets into the back of Rossi → claims that he got shoved by Blomqvist and that the incident was not his fault (turned out to not be true, and he received a penalty for avoidable contact Rasmussen gets into the wall and collects Harvey with him Penalty for Lundgaard of RLL → unsafe release, caused contact with Kirkwood on pitlane Contact between Newgarden and Herta → racing incident or not? Scott Dixon clinches the win Theo Pourchaire does good for his debut (finished p15 or p16 and earned the “biggest mover” award) Formula Drift at Long Beach First event of the FD US calendar Some driver shuffles Ben Hobson replacing Chelsea Denofa Adam LZ left the Ford RTR program Travis Reeder not running this year Andy Hateley, Derek Madison, and Rudy Hansen up from ProSpec Hiroya Minowa joined FD US (he’s only 14!!!) → won in FD JP last year James Deane barbequed his Mustang in practice New qualifying format Versus single car runs, Top 32 is now seeded by battles Idea is for for fans trackside to get more action Hiroya Minowa qualified P1, Adam LZ P2 OZ1 really catching out a lot of drivers Rain came down part way through Top 32 and didn’t stop Caught out the likes of Ryan Tuerck and Deane Deane v Hurst slugfest in Top 16 → went OMT Both had INC lead runs but fabulous chase runs, forcing the OMT James Deane would win in a Cinderella story after the practice fire Simon Olsen would take P2 and Odi Bakchis P3

Introduction Quick points on GT races @ Sonoma Raceway GT races at Sonoma seem to go well despite prior issues with the circuit being repaved and testing/practice sessions being canceled due to the circuit needing to be fixed Westin Workman scores podium in TGR Cup Samantha Tan and Neil Verhagan get P2 in GT Challenge America GT World Challenge Europe @ Circuit Paul Ricard Good race or no? → Good race in my opinion Notable moments from the race Mustang GT3 has rear bodywork issues again Aston Martin catches fire #32 BMW DNF after collision with Ferrari and getting a puncture, puncture caused the bodywork to get shredded up (Charles Weerts at the scene of the crime AGAIN) #98 BMW bungles strategy → Did not get enough fuel in the car the first time around and ended up having to pit again Nürburgring Langstrecken Series (NLS) Interesting faces participating in this series this weekend Glickenhaus Kamui Kobayashi Jimmy Broadbent and Steve Brown (won in their class in Race 2) Race 1 Falken Motorsports clutches the overall win Race 2 ABT Motorsports played themselves and fumbled the win in race 2 → Pepper was told to let the clock run out because they were not going to make it on fuel, however he ended up slowing down too much and which resulted in Vanthoor from Manthey snatching the win Other Sports Car News Drama at the Nurburgring Explanation of the drama → Owners of the Nurburgring wanted to run their own series as opposed to NLS running it (caused a split between the two, similar to the CART IRL split) NES (Nurburgring Endurance series) vs NLS NES double header season opener races canceled (week of 3/19) Drama in GTD IMSA (3/25/24) AWA withdraws the #17 Corvette (in a rage quit kind of fashion) Initially started as an IG post (with a lot of attitude) then later announced on Twitter that they were withdrawing the car Continuing the season with one car Statement from AWA on Twitter → “Anthony Mantella has elected to step away from the GTD program at this moment in time. The #13 car will continue to proceed as planned and will be present at the upcoming round in Long Beach.” The Dacia Logan returns to the Nurburgring 24H this year Sebastian Vettel Tests Porsche Penske 963 Will we see him in the 963 at a race soon? → No plans from Porsche to draft him for the 2024 LeMans entry list Qatar 1812 km Post Hoc penalties 02 Cadillac gets DQ’d due to modification of a homologated part (the rough year for GM continues) Vista AF Corse Ferrari (54 Ferrari LMGT3) fined €60,000 ($64,800 USD) for sneaking extra engineers on the grid (team tried to disguise them as sales/marketing staff and claimed they didn’t touch the car) As a result Toyota and BMWgot points (BMW are DQ/Penalty merchants) WEC requiring a minimum of 2 entries for the Hypercar class starting next season Good decision or not? (FIA/ACO shooting themselves in the foot imo and creating a solution to a problem that does not exist) Rule that forbids Hypercar manufacturers from running more than two factory cars is still in place (LeMans is the only race exempt from that rule) Would spell trouble for customer and privateer teams like Isotta Fraschini
