Well, you're never going to like the new Le Mans safety car rules if you've got the quickest car! But further down the grid, one encounters other opinions on the increased chances of getting lucky... 💬👇
Toyota Gazoo Racing Europe technical director Pascal Vasselon believes that the revised safety car system could make “Le Mans a bit of a lottery”. whereby the field will be lined up behind a single course vehicle when the race goes green. “It makes Le Mans a bit of a lottery, and that changes the value of the win. It could devalue a Le Mans victory because you can get it by chance somehow.”“A safety car always has a sporting impact.
Porsche Penske Motorsport boss Jonathan Diuguid said: “More cars on the lead lap at the end of a 24-hour race is more exciting than not. That, he argued, “had to be good” given that last year his team’s #22 LMP2 entry lost two laps in a startline incident and was unable to make up for the delay. “Last year, we lost those two laps at the start, and our drivers drove flat out for 24 hours, but we were never going to make up any ground.”
