Should be a real 100-minute battle to see who wins the pole for the 24 IMSA race the following weekend
IMHO : Michelin should keep their noses out of forcing track rules as hard enough to keep a car racing hard for 24 hours and not worrying about if tire pressures are too hot or cold
IMSA and Michelin have introduced tire usage requirements for all classes, including negative camber values in GTD Pro and GTD.
The new operational requirements, which outline minimum cold and/or hot pressures and/or stabilized pressures, will be enforced by in-race penalties if teams are found to be running outside the permitted parameters.
Teams will be given a warning/reprimand on the first violation,
followed by a drive-through penalty for the second violation and a stop-and-hold plus ten-second penalty for subsequent violations.
Additionally, a penalty assessed in qualifying may result in qualifying times being disallowed and an un-served penalty or penalty assessed post-race will be added to the car’s race finishing time and may include a lap count penalty.
