You're absolutely right. That's why they had to create a rule that gives a drive through in case the others are too close.
Yup. The Porsche was miles faster in qualify, the Ford could barely follow in the slipstream and conversely, the Porsche easily passed the Ford. But the BOP is correct, absolutely
LMAO, I'm an idiot, I completely misunderstood the humour at first... Then wrote this rant...
where do I say its correct. I inferred that, one drivers perception of what is correct, has been very heavily biased toward the car he's driving. And that car, being several seconds faster through out practice, qualifying and the full 24 hour race of 2016. Where, the only cars in the fight that year, were Ferrari. They killed every entry, just trying to keep up.
Back to my darkened whole....
It didn't get a penalty cause the ruling is clear that it may do that on electric, if you weren't so anti-Toyota or double standardly, you would have already have received that information.
Well I'm not that sure about this, since the commentators still are discussing a penalty for that
....and Toyota just won the race.
There is not enough time anymore for Rebellion, even if Toyota would park there cars.
The curse is over...

That doesn't matter. The rules are the rules, now if you guys all want to disagree with them, that's your call, but it doesn't change them at all.
They still have to take the flag, mind you.
Absolutely. And especially Toyota do know that!
Now the #8 can be penalized for spinning its wheels, they made sure the #7 had more penalties to make sure the right car wins.#7 crew making a lot of mistakes recently
Toyota gets his PR win with Alonso who can't win with Honda, but wins with Toyota, Porsche gets (buys) a double GTE win for his anniversary, everyone happy.
#7 crew making a lot of mistakes recently
Yeah that's exactly why the #1 gets the same penalty.
You guys and your conspiracy theories.

I can’t see the pink pig being pushed by cash...
This is not about the #1 car. It's rather about the #7 crew forgetting to fuel the car, getting a penalty for exceeding fuel flow during the stint and then for exceeding the laps per stint. And all that during 1 hour or so?
Cause penalties are never combined together and have to be served seperately.
Is this the first time some of you see penalties given out in a race or so?
That is true but it does not explain why the #7 crew makes these mistakes, does it?
On board with Toyota is great. That's some good clean racing
911R is a superb looking race car too.

How much has Toyota paid for Alonso's participation?
A Japanese driver has to cross the finish line --- therefore 2 Japanese drivers doing the last stint, only in case one fails, so Alonso can't take this glory. Would be a surprise for me if it isn't written in Alonso's contract, that he has to be in the winning car, if both cars are surviving.
Toyota needs this publicity too.
And let's be clear, Alonso's performance was professional, but not the way to be impressed, isn't it? The race best laps have been done by others
