During the RLM coverage of the race, Hindy interviewed Roy Carroll, who owns and sponsored the Riley entered GTEPro Ferrari 488, that ended up 5th in class. They spoke about the race, but also about the Hendrick Camaro entry for G56 next year. Carroll is good friends with Hendrick. Richard Childress is doing the engines for the Camaro entry, a friend of Hendricks and Carroll. Also, obviously interested in the money that will flow into this project, ss he owns a Nascar team.

Hendricks was at LeMans for the race.

Jimmy Johnson was mentioned in the RLM interview, but by Hindy in a sort of 'wouldn't it be great' comment, and Carroll agreed.

Carroll is a Ferrari collector-he doesn't know how many he has (!)-abd races Ferrari Challenge in US. Also, obviously, lots of funds.
