with Bob Varsha and Brian Till leading an eight-member FOX Sports broadcast team.
Varsha’s broadcast team for the iconic endurance race includes Calvin Fish and Tommy Kendall, while Till leads the team of Jamie Howe
and Scott Pruett. Justin Bell and Andrew Marriott report from the pits and legendary driver Sam Posey is writing and voicing the open, as
well as providing pieces throughout the weekend.
No surprise here, Ferraris and Fords way ahead of everyone else after Practice 1 on pace after the recent roundd of BoP. Seems like everyone but the FIA knew Ford was sandbagging. Will be interesting if the other teams can close the gap some with setup and such. Next practice is at night in a couple of hours.
And here's the AM category since there are two Corvettes there.
The next 3 practices are also qualifying, so we'll see how that goes, not sure who will bother with fast laps tonight versus just getting a night setup down...

I'm thinking they rule makers allowed them to be faster to make up for the time in the pits figuring out the bugs
Corvette Racing normally makes sure the drivers are pretty quiet publicly about BoP. Tommy Milner may have missed this week's memo, but as noted, we all know it:
Still 40 minutes left in the first practice/qualifying session, but Ferrari and Ford have 3.5-4 seconds on the others. Huge disparity, and a big miss. Will be 2 separate get-pro races. One for all the cars that start with F and one for the others.
Just remember the Peugeot vs Audi a few years back. The French team was several seconds a lap faster. Remember who won? P1 and P2 if i am not senile with my memory.
Wasn't Toyota much faster the last few years, also?
I love that Ford is back, i just find it hard to root for a 6 cyl car that sounds like a long fart when there are yellow cars that shake the earth going by.
So here's the first qualifying session. The 7 F cars are a quite a bit ahead. What might be more disheartening is not their fastest laps, but how easily they seem to be able to set times faster than the fastest of the other cars. The Fords seem to be running 55's and 56's on the laps they are not even trying to set qualifying times...
