It's worry that even if there is a late Pace Car to catch up, they do not seem fast enough to keep up with Cadillac or Porsche when all three cars are pushing.
Watching a race that is a Porsche commercial when it's meant to be BOP and is not about building the best car is rather depressing. If they built the best car -- fine, but did they? |
Context: Based on top 100 laps in the race by half distance, Acura are about 4 tenths off the quickest car. The slowest Porsche is about 4 tenths slower than the fastest Porsche. 7 tenths covers the entire field.
They led a bit and still have some of their cold tire advantage.
Let's see how it goes.
