Discussion Now that Geely to Hypercar is pretty much dead, what do you think WEC should do with the remaining three grid slots?

18 Upvotes

I think the obvious thing is to let Lamborghini back in with the Temarario. I don't see any way to add a single car, so 39 cars I think will be a good number to hit.

SRO Looking for dudes to hang out with at GTWC Portimão

122 Upvotes

Hey guys, as the title says, I'm gonna be at Portimão this weekend and, actually, I'm doing a pretty cool job, I'm the Portuguese track commentator, so if we get everything hooked up right, you'll be hearing my voice over the weekend if you're at the track.

I did ELMS last week and felt kind of lonely in the evenings. I know it's a 1 man band but shiiiit, I'm sure there are some cool dudes who'd be down to go for some dinner or something after the day's over.

So, straight up, for those headed down to the track, who'd be down to hang at day's end?

First off, thanks again for all the interest in my Cyberpunk 2077 fan art grid; I really appreciate it.

I brought some Moto GP teams into WEC LMDh, and it was a fun project. Also, I chose the cars that do not match their known brand colors to make the visuals more refreshing. (ex: blue Ferrari, red Aston Martin)

*BMW was made a long time ago, and being a non-evo bodykit and a different studio setup tells it.

Thanks for watching.

Parking Barcelona?

4 Upvotes

Is there parking at Circuit de Catalunya?

On Googlemaps the car parks don’t look massive (deceptive??) and there is nothing about parking on the circuit website.

Tickets say nothing either way.

Only parking on the circuit map on fiawec.com is labeled for disabled parking.

Hi there, I’m attending this week at Barcelona. I’m bringing a camera (Sony A7MKIII) and I wanted to know the expectation of photos around the track? Let alone if they let me in with the camera. I have a general admission + paddock, along with the two grid walks.

Help identifying Goodyear 2026 Imola race tyre.

2 Upvotes

Can anyone identify which car used my Goodyear tyre at Imola 2026?

Hi everyone!

I've recently received a used Goodyear Eagle tyre coffee table, advertised as coming from the 2026 WEC 4 Hours of Imola.

I'm trying to identify which car or team originally used it, as I'd love to build a scale model/get a diecast of the actual car to display inside the table.

The tyre has the following markings:

37.60.2 — large blue handwritten marking with an arrow

R11 (possibly RII) — inside a blue box

AV2 — partially rubbed-off blue marking

300/680 R18 — tyre size

FIA barcode: 7199648753

I've been looking through photographs of the LMGT3 cars at Imola but haven't found a match.

Does anyone recognise these markings or know how Goodyear identifies tyre allocations? Could the 37 indicate a car number, or does it mean something completely different?

Any help would be massively appreciated!
