Caution with a minute to go in Porsches. Looks like a heavy hit for #52 and driver appears to be winded.

Yikes, from the other side view that car is pretty heavily damaged. Wheel and door both ripped off.

Proper wet now, rain fell heaviest between the two races which ruins the whole fun of the dry/wet phase, but a wet race is a wet race

Sorry, lets do it properly

RAIN

It's RAINING and the track is WET
