I wonder if we’ll see a Virtual Le Mans again this year then on the original date.

As long as its not cancelled im happy

Ooh starts a day after my b-day :3

 

[McLaren]

Looks like 2 weeks after Road America and 3 weeks before Laguna for the IMSA guys. Seems it gives those teams invited some more flexibility than before where the original June dates were a week after Detroit.

 

[Coquico]

I work both days! 🤬

Same...

Had the June date off as well.

To be honest it's 2022 onwards when the real competition at the front heats up, so not the worst edition of Le Mans to mostly miss.

What's this Alpine A480 look like? Has it been released yet?

Not to my recollection, but it's a blue Rebellion R13.

I guess this means more night racing than normal.
