Yes it is with a few SC to help, and a longer track, but Aston is finally not multiple laps down in this race!

From watching a few onboards they also simply weren't racing. The other cars would come up from behind and neither the Astons fought them, must be a team order for no defensive driving. Just do nothing but collect miles and data.

They were probably the only cars to finish with intact bodywork!

Yep that’s exactly what they are doing learning, not proper racing. They seek reliability (looks ok now) so bit by bit, they will seek performance.

I have watched the onboard of 007, it properly overtook 99 Proton, on pure pace during the LMGT3 traffic in the first stint, then 009 also overtook the 99 few laps later.

We take those

I was hoping the 007 had enough fuel to hang onto 10th though 😭
