At least with the once-a-year-EoT the pre Le Mans sandbagging in P1 is now back to what it used to be between Audi vs Peugeot, as in "purely trying to make the opposition think less of us". 2012-2013 BoP debacle between Audi and Toyota was annoying

Though I am worried ACO's gonna mess around with refueling restrictors again as they seem to be out of the equation

Stepping away from sandbagging and eot assumptions, here's a good write up on Porsche's rear suspension.

Has anyone read this story?

Claims that Porsche and Toyota might be in the 8MJ class. Says Toyota has found 2 seconds per lap at Aragon.

Also interesting is the fact that Porsche was close to signing Alonso for Le Mans, but Honda rejected at the end..

Yeah, thanks. Conflicting rumors of 6 or 8mj for Porsche. We'll find out very soon.

Is it safe to assume that one must have a Twitter account to view the video?

My gut feeling for the upcoming season is that Toyota will undoubtedly remain strong. Audi was given more than enough incentive last season to have a rethink and their car will prove as much. Porsche is going to have their hands full. I really hope that they have made some major inroads in performance, tire management, reliability, and strategy.

That's not too much to ask for, is it?

I need to find a high-res version so I can enlarge it. This would help me to see whether or not my eyes are deceiving me.

Great shots! She looks good to me. I am somewhat optimistic given their mileage and what they have admitted to focussing on. They aren't exactly standing about in the aero department either. I really wish I could make it to COTA this year. I had a great time last year.

Thanks again for the added eye candy Spyderman.
