I imagine there will be plenty of arm waving and finger wagging with ACO and the stewards right now.

Even though that finish was a new level of cruel, that's exactly why I love motorsport. And specifically this race. It's difficult to think of any other sporting event that could come close to creating a moment like that as far as I'm concerned.

And now I've got a team to root for next year :flag:

I have a feeling Toyota might pull the plug out of Le Mans now. Spending hundreds of millions year after year and with the only result of huge dissappointment.

they will build a car, withdraw, and claim that car would have been the best thing ever.

With the way WEC is doing well and generally raising profile I don't think the decision is anymore solely based on previous year's result. You could make the same case for winning: finally win > marketing job done > quit but that's probably not how it works. You build the image by continous presence/winning.

won't happen for any full time NASCAR driver. They already scheduled against it when they took out their June off weekend in Cup :(

(was kinda of hoping to see Allmendinger or one of the drivers who are normally paired with a top IMSA team go over to run)

alot of the NASCAR drivers aren't happy with the change either, as their schedule is already extreme
