F1 Feeder Series....
....More fuel to the recent fire (from the FIA WEC Facepalm feed):
"Fernando Alonso name-checked the 24 Hours of Le Mans yesterday in the Monaco GP drivers' press conference - one of the three biggest and best known races in the world. Today Dario Franchitti, 3 time winner of the Indy 500, says he'd like to try the World Endurance Championship...sport car racing is on the top of everyone's mind!!"
I know it keeps getting commented on a lot by the likes of Radio Le Mans, but endurance/sportscar racing does seem to be becoming a lot more popular amongst the drivers (that said they do seem to be a lot more 'mobile' moving between disciplines in recent years).
[ETA - Possibly should have popped this in the wider sportscar section, sorry!]
