Anybody making any Sebring predictions?

The Audi R10s are fast, about two seconds faster then the LMP1 lap record and both in front row grid postions, but the RS Spyder qualified 3rd and 4th overall, 2 seconds behind the R10s, beating the old LMP2 lap record by almost two seconds and just beating the old LMP1 lap record - ahead of the Dyson Lola LMP1 cars.

With 12 hours to race this is going to be very intertesting.

Doesn't do any good to turn fast laps if you are stuck in the pits. 0 for 2 in class wins - that's the pits!

Several of the failures were drive shaft or axle related; seems like that was the prevailing failure mode for Porsche powered cars in the Rolex 24, as well.
