Toyota is leading with 2 hours to go. Gap is a lap over the eTron Audi. The car count in WEC really isn't that great compare to even ALMS. I think there are 28 cars entered. And I think there are maybe 10 people in the grand stand at Interlago.....
A part of me want to see WEC crash and burn...

Entry list for 2012 PLM is worst in years. It basically will be a longer race consisting of the regular season competitors.

Are you going Dino?
It's a shame to see AF Corse not bringing a pro car. Oh well. The ALMS could have used a more competent team running a 458.
I can't say I have been following this year. Seeing a few protos getting TV time instead of the GT class is unappealing.

No, not going this time. I think this will be the third PLM I've missed since it's debut.
I missed the Risi team this year for sure...even though it was getting nasty on the track between them and Flying Lizard. I don't mind some fender rubbing but in a few races the last 3 year some of the drivers went overboard and it was purely not sportsman like.
There are enough fans curious about the Deltawing that I think the crowd will still be decent.

Rebellion can fight for overall win, thats a change...I think maybe there might be a race in P1...P2 field is healthy too...

For some reason I haven't seen most of the races this year. Shame...
Did Rebellion really fight on top?

Not raced yet, this weekend...

A historic win at Fuji,: A Japanse car, driven by a Japanese driver finished the Fuji 6 Hours about 10 seconds ahead of the Audi-Etron.

A very smart move indeed.
In the live stream the focus where placed several times on the guest and high up Toyota members in the pits. The atmosphere can only have touched them, and i know it's something they will take with them into the board meeting next time!
The TS030 is already more successful than TS020

Wow, sounds like Nakajima didn't crash?
Great moment for Toyota, though, and if they can keep the rhythm I'd be waiting next year's Le Mans impatiently.

Deltawing crash.

driver of the green porsche banned for life? This could have ended very nasty with the bridge so close by.
