The GT series of FIA and SRO were traveling at Spa this weekend driving the ALMS at Mid-Ohio and the Grand-Am at Watkins Glen. But more important at the moment is the big picture: what happens in the next few years with the sports car, especially with the GT-racing?
Correction: Ironically, in the Speedweek quote me I mistyped: BMS (ie, the winning team at Spa Porsche) is said to have interest in the GT2 European Championship, not BMW!
To mark the occasion, I would like today before the race analysis (I've also, unfortunately, almost nothing can be seen from the spa) and ALMS preview first discuss the question of where actually steers the sports car racing at the moment. Because of the dispute between the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO), which organized has always been the 24 Hours of Le Mans and in recent years, the corresponding series, and Stéphane Ratels SRO Motorsports Group, the distinguished FIA and national GT series are responsible, will be deepened with the new GT2 series of SRO 2011. On both sides there is a different view of what they look like sports car race, should it come according to a stubborn attitude of self-determined will. further accelerate →
