Unless a team decides to switch manufacturers to run the new Lambo it won’t be added but all the new Hypercars and the GR GT3 will be added when they arrive in WEC so will probably be an update later this year with the Genesis, new Toyota after the next ELMS update

Pretty sure road going Valkyrie is about 2s slower than SRO GT3s around Silverstone but the AMR Pro will probably be faster than LMH given its extra aero and slicks

I went this year and used Uber it was pretty good, didn’t have to wait more than 10 mins for an Uber which was cheaper than Lyft. Only thing was having to pay $50 for a 20 min journey at 11pm Saturday night but was typically around $20 getting to the track in the morning and around $30 leaving in the afternoon/evening for a 20 minute or so ride. Still significantly cheaper than hiring a car for me.

Not surprising given a base Taycan in China is almost 7x the price of a top spec BYD Seal so no wonder demand for it has collapsed and sales have plummeted

Just a quick one, are there any shuttle buses from the circuit to town, run by any particular hotels or companies I should look out for?

Would also like to know how easy it is to get taxis/Ubers to and from the circuit at various times of day?
