That is an...... interesting trailer. 

 

So they are basically saying that a man on foot is faster than Formula E cars? Really great marketing xD In all seriousness, the video looks great, but I'm honestly not sure if showing a massive crash from last season and then drivers outrunning their cars is a great way to advertise the series...

24H Daytona was an amazing race again. Incredible battles from the start to the finish in all classes, but the two Porsches battle for the class win in GTD Pro was the icing on the cake... Such intense, hard, borderline racing well into the final lap! Both Vanthoor and Jaminet drove like mad there :D Just fantastic.

Has anyone watched Race of Champions today? Team Norway (Petter and Oliver Solberg) won the ROCNations Cup by beating Team USA (Jimmie Johnson and Colton Herta).

Team Finland (Mika Hakkinen and Emma Kimilainen) and Team Nordic (Tom Kristensen and Johan Kristoffersson) were eliminated in the semi-finals.

Team Germany (Sebastian Vettel and Mick Schumacher), Team GB (David Coulthard and Jamie Chadwick), Team France (Sébastien Loeb and Didier Auriol), and Team Sweden (Mattias Ekström and Timmy Hansen) lost in quarterfinals.

Team Latin America (Helio Castroneves and Benito Guerra) and Team eROC All Stars (Jarno Opmeer and Lucas Blakeley) were eliminated in Round 1, but Blakeley managed to get a win against Vettel xD

I wasn't sure if she was going to get a drive at all, because she was hinting about "news" for ages now. 😅

Was it an open secret? 

Sort of; ot that she would join G-Drive in particular, but that she was in talks with several LMP-2 teams. She even tested with WRT (last season's champions) in the off-season, as well with Prema. 

What's interesting, that Kvyat will be driving for G-Drive in WEC this season :D

Ah okay. Do you think G-Drive is a good choice?

 

I've read about Daniil Kvyat as well. Hope he does well.

They are fine, have been in the sport for quite a while, and therefore have enough experience and proven track record (including WEC class title) in both WEC and ELMS. They are also owned by Gazprom.
