The #3 Corvette passed Bill Auberlen in the esses, and you could really see the M6 GTLM all over the place, while the #3 C7.R just shot through like an arrow.
Really disappointing.

Are we watching the same race? Im here at Sebring watching from Član and think BMW drivers are doing a respectable job.  |
If you consider being last respectable, ok. The only cars behind the 7th place #25 BMW have been back in the garages for service.
I love going to the races (I went to Daytona this year), but I'm not going to sugar coat it. BMW are off to another rough start. |
The M6 is competitive everywhere around the world except in the US. IMSA hands out BOP under the guise of keeping things competitive. However, it appears their idea of BOP is to give Ford and Chevy a leg up on the competition, but what else would you expect with IMSA being owned by NASCAR??? Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of the M6 as a race car, but I don't think the M6 is the problem here. |
Exactly. The M6 is really not the problem here nor are the drivers. Remember, the M6 qualified p1 and p2 at Sebring last year and I believe they finished p2 with one of the cars in GTLM.
The car is doing well all around the world, even winning the 24hrs of Spa last year in its first year.
I really think IMSA needs to make further BoP adjustments for the M6 as it is just not competitive enough the way things stand currently. I'm curious to see how the M6 performs in Europe this year.
