Michael Waltrip just said he would rather win the Daytona 500. That guy's an idiot.

Exactly how does that make him an idiot?

Really??? I didn't heard that, but coming to think of it, I'm glad I didn't heard it. Making a favour for the NASCAR driver stereotype...

I don't remember hearing it myself but if he did, I doubt he was serious.
On another topic, I read some time ago that Toyota is exclusively supplying engines to Lola Customers (or was it something else?), wonder if that may be a indicator of them slowly putting together a factory effort. Either way, its great to see Toyota and Nissan back in Sportscar racing one way or another.

It is an opinion of the person, but I assume that Rossy was meaning to his (Ross) eyes, he puts more value on winning Le Mans 24 outright over the Daytona 500 as Le Mans is longer, tougher and so difficult to win with all the variabilities and reliabilities required to win and go the distance.

So if I'm staying up until 8am tomorrow when the race ends locally, what's a good time to stop drinking? I don't want to be a morning drinker.

Try with any of the links, most are Eurosport 👍.
Anthony Davidson says on Twitter he's going for a nap. Race is going ok but he isn't happy with the car's balance.
Hadn't noticed yet what everyone was talking about. The Audi headlights are serious candelas!!!

RML have dropped like a stone down the leaderboard...

Latest I ever drank was roughly 6am. Mind you, I was quite far gone. And that was a long long long night, brought on by the World Cup and some ODD and bizzare time zone differences (Was in Shanghai during SA World Cup events).
Say....if you stopped around 4am, that should be ok..... 5am would be pushing it a bit... 6am is practically morning. 7am would put you in the drunkard category. To the end...that's alkie stuff. Mind you, to toast the winner, that's acceptable :-).
EDIT: CHRIST..... Dusk is the most dangerous time to race....almost can't see anything in front of the car, when the camera goes in the cockpit.
