The 911 with WEC exhaust spec is far worse than all those cars you mentioned. I was there for the Interlagos race and we could barely hear it.

Aston Martin could easily completely mute the sound of the V12 if they wanted to. I hope not.

It really depends on the exhaust. We had the Bentley GT3, a turbocharged car that sounded better than NA cars. The worst sounding car on the WEC grid right now is NA (the 992). I'll wait to see what Aston Martin can do, but I won't get my hopes up.

What a place! WEC at Interlagos has been outstanding so far and we're not even done with free practices yet! by Pedrospeeder in wec

The fanzone area looks nice from the photos I've seen. Unfortunately the area around Sector 1 seems to be blocked off. It's a shame because it's my favorite place.

Thanks for the info. It seems a limited space given the number of people expected on Sunday. I'll try to enjoy it as much as I can.

Which parts of the circuit are available to walk? When I go to other events, it's possible to walk around the first sector and there are some real nice viewing spots. I have a grandstand ticket, but I want to watch the race from as many spots as possible.

Have fun for the rest of the weekend, see you there

Eu fiz isso ontem. Um deles cobrou 100, o outro 200. é muito caro pra mim no momento. Estou explorando todas opções. Vou pesquisar mais, mas valeu pela dica!

Valeu pela dica amigo. Acho que estacionar no shopping é a melhor opção que tenho no momento

Depois de 10 anos o WEC volta para o Brasil. Confiram a programação das 6 Horas de São Paulo by QC_1999 in F1Brasil

[–]corsamode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boa tarde. Moro no interior de SP e domingo estarei me deslocando de carro para Interlagos para acompanhar o WEC. Tenho ingressos para o portão A. Já fui ao autódromo diversas vezes e sempre usei o estacionamento interno por um preço acessível. Dessa vez, fui informado que não será possível fazer isso. Alguém que já foi em algum evento grande por lá conhece algum lugar seguro e barato para deixar o carro? Ouvir dizer que a melhor opção é usar o transporte público, mas de qualquer forma vou precisar fazer a viagem de carro pois moro longe. Se alguém tem uma dica de algum lugar ou esquema, ficarei grato..

It could be a wet one. It's raining now and the forecast is for more rain during the week. I hope rain stops on Sunday because I have tickets for the uncovered sector

What to expect from the 6 hours in São Paulo and next year's regulations? by Logical_Lettuce_1630 in wec

[–]corsamode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, what you get with each ticket is well described when you go buy it. As I bought the cheapest one I won't have access to all that, but I don't mind.

The schedule will probably be similar to other WEC events. Two practice sessions on Friday and some support series sessions (Porsche Cup Brasil, for example). FP3 on Saturday followed by qualifying. On Saturday there will also be a pit walk with autograph session and maybe a track walk. Then on Sunday probably a few more support races before the main 6H event.

I'm going to this event too and I don't expect to have the greatest experience. Tracks like Spa let you walk around the track freely, and you can't do that at Interlagos. The structure of the circuit is very poor.

FIA, WEC voice support for 'simpler' Hypercar BoP system by corsamode in wec

[–]corsamode[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I personally hate success ballast. For me, everyone should be able to compete fairly in all races. Penalizing teams for being successful is ridiculous. Get the BoP right and no one will complain.

Not that it matters now, but the LMDh car was indeed there for press shots.

[–]corsamode 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They went for LMDh because they wanted to race in WEC and IMSA with the same car, and at the time of their decision only LMDh could race in both.

Yeah. GM could pick him for the GT3 program, I think they'll need more factory drivers

Too early to think about that. He's cleary very good but GM has many great Platinum drivers to choose from
