ALMS Round 5 - My Predictions

Overall: Audi. In its first two races it took pole and the victory. In its third race it is an all Audi front row. The big boys are back.

LMP1: Audi, Audi, Dyson. Expect Autocon to score some more points too. Dyson is starting third and qualified less than a second down from the Audis.

LMP2: Porsche, Porsche, Intersport. The Porsches are starting fourth and fifth, but with the faster accelerating second Dyson right behind and beside them, and Intersport sitting on the tailpipe of the second Porsche, the start could be a big shakeup in this class.



GT1: I am going to call Aston 007 if their tyre troubles don't continue. I think the Corvette #4 could take second followed by the 009. But if Aston losses grip again, I call the #3 for victory.


GT2: The start is crucial. Risi took pole, but accelerates slower than the Porsches. Petersen/White Lightning put their Porsche next to the Ferrari, while Flying Lizard starts right behind it and Panoz starts next to the Lizard. Surrounded by cars quicker to get up than it, the Risi will be on the defensive from the begining. I say they will get their first victory here, followed by Flying Lizard and Panoz.
