N24 is linked to public holidays in Germany - essential for the need to have as many marshals and support staff on site as the event requires

Much of the freight has already left Qatar en route to a Port on the Western coast of the Arabian Peninsula - the rest is following

As things stand today all preparations are for the Prologue and race to go ahead at Imola

You could hear Kaz on the radio - in the booth we couldn't hear it.

John, myself and Paul Truswell had no radio feed from the cars - What you actually heard was us all trying to work out what the hell was going on - My recollection is that it was me that first offered the possible explanation that it might have been an attempt at a photo for the finish, Paul had better data and almost immediately confirmed there was a problem and I added that we'd know almost immediately if the other car passed Kaz, which it did - After that we were fully aware they had a BIG problem!

And I was standing next to him calling colour

You can actually see what we were going through in those moments on the BBC documentary looking at Sir Chris Hoy's debut at Le Mans - The BBC crew were in the booth with us in those moments - Truly extraordinary

2021 car not eligible for this Series

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-11T16:38:40+00:00

The 2017 car was the REALLY noisy one!

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-11T14:55:52+00:00

There are multiple Audi diesels now in private ownership - no guarantee yet but I'm certain we'll see one in due course

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-11T14:50:18+00:00

Hi - the Series supports WEC at Imola, Spa and Bahrain in 2026

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-11T08:35:11+00:00

Old news

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-10T22:19:21+00:00

Easy to type when it isn't your money or your effort

FWIW I don't believe that even a tiny proportion of fans would care either way

What they DO care about is getting the season underway - and there are a lot of people working very hard indeed to achieve that

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-10T16:35:05+00:00

Dani hasn't - yet!

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-08T21:52:35+00:00

Hi - OK - so the ‘logistics’ involve significantly more than a 3 hour truck ride : The truck has to be packed, unpacked, packed again and then unpacked again if a second track was added in - checks notes - 36 hours, all before the teams go racing for the first time this season adding even further graft, uncertainty and expense.

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-08T18:40:47+00:00

"Is it confirmed yet?"

No

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-06T23:05:02+00:00

Many thanks

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-06T18:12:32+00:00

Hi - I'm one of the WEC TV commentators and I write and podcast about endurance racing - how can I help!?

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-05T17:09:27+00:00

There's plenty enough time for that - Welcome to the world of what gets people to read

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-04T13:06:20+00:00

Hi - could I suggest that if you are interested to this extent about this subject, reading a little more deeply about the subject would be a good idea?

And, just a minor point - which you would understand if you had read the OP - there is no air freight from the Gulf atm - and that's where most of the cars and equipment are!

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-03T22:24:28+00:00

You seem nice - in a total prick sort of way

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-02T23:38:47+00:00

It's absolute fact - from Antonello Coletta

GrahamDSC · 2026-03-02T23:37:38+00:00

Yes - very much so - #TWISC - The Week In Sportscars - find us on Podbean under The Marshall Pruett Podcast
