Episode #496: F1 Rejects Andretti/2024 Rolex 24 Review

Feb 05, 05:53 PM

It's the episode we originally meant to upload last week until... something else came up. Sorry about that!

In this edition of the show, we take care of the other major breaking news story of last week, Andretti's bid of getting on the grid for 2026 being rejected by F1's management wing. Where do they go from there, and will they persue the 2028 Grid instead with FOM leaving that option out there?

And finally, a full review of the 24 Hours of Daytona as Porsche won a heated 23 hour and 58 minute battle with Cadillac's #31 car with Tom Blomqvist gunning for Porsche's Felipe Nasr right at the very end. We talk about that almost race long fight, as well as the other big picks of RJ's #01 Cadillac suffering another failure, as well as the #10 Acura's explosion in the night as well.

We also talk about LMP2 with a Lieger that went horribly wrong (Like, bringing out five cautions wrong), as well as an impressive win for ERA Motorsport and IndyCar's Christian Rasmussen leading the charge, as well as a dominant win in GTD Pro for RISI Competizione and Ferrari!

...And just how did a 24 hour race end 2 minutes early anyway? All that and more on another Motorsport101!
