F1 to V6 in 2014. Porsche to Le Mans in 2014. Audi leaves for F1 in 2014?

Obviously interesting coincidence (just a day after the confirmation of the F1 engine regs) but 2014 is also the year when a big LMP regulation is supposed to happen. This is why I don't expect new manufacturers before 2014... unless Toyota has been really busy and really underground.

From what I've heard, Porsche have been planning on entering LMP1 racing for quite a while

Why the fuck do you people think a comment on how the race is going to develop is moaning?

For Christ's sake, it's a statement, not a desperate plea to the organizers. He's absolutely right, short straights, lots of corners, and 49 cars on that track means a lot of traffic. Period.

Because that's what he and Bourdais do, moan non-stop about traffic while other drivers get on and deal with it.

Because every time he is interviewed he complains about traffic. And he punted a Corvette and was being a massive pain in the ass to cars lapping him at Le Mans. Fuck Davidson, he deserves anything he gets.

Because it's Anthony Davidson, Racing Driver Extraordinaire(TM), who seems to think that it is his God-given right to be racing a Red Bull or a Ferrari in F1, and that the world of sportscars should be thankful that he is gracing it with his presence.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

This was not a moaning, I'm really looking forward for this race exacly because of traffic and his statement was like reading my mind. He is a PITA but that was NOT a moaning. Anyway, die Davidson!

Our commentators are crediting Bourdais' excellence in traffic as experience from his THREE (four actually but who's counting? :p ) Champcar titles.

Obviously they forget that Champcar only ran 18 cars during his era and he rarely had to lap anyone tbh.

The few times he did have to pass cars he didn't exactly do it too well and pulled faces on podiums as a result of being raced hard...

He DID learn to fuel save like a pro though, the douche...
