What a place and what a race!
I said at the top of the Fox Sports show that "Fans come for the race and stay for the party!" and I stand by that. In fact I resemble that remark!
The Sebring 12 hours is amazing - crazy - intense and fast and furious and that is just the infield. I love this race in my role as one of the pitlane talent for IMSA on the broadcast as it gives me the chance to experience all that makes our sportscar world the hottest ticket in town right now!
Anyway- you know how the race went - top guys won in amazing cars and (almost) everyone went home feeling that the weekend was a success. For sure that was the feeling from the fans who were treated to a superb display of motorsport while enjoying beautiful weather. The fact that most of them were in a coma come Saturday morning race day was besides the point. It was probably THE point of being at Sebring. It's a generational experience, passed down from father to son during which time travel to college levels of bad behaviour are appreciated.
Hopefully you have a chance to check out the video I put together from my unique viewpoint in pitlane during the race these are just a few photos I took on my way round over the weekend! Enjoy!

One of the coolest moments was getting my Dad and brother Sebastian into the show from behind pitman!
If you haven't watched already - this was a maybe world first perspective of our life in the pitlane. It was night time at Sebring and I take you for a walk!
