It may not have been top spot, but RLLracing says getting both BMW M Hybrid V8 LMDh cars to the finish at the Daytona 24 was 'almost like a win'. Full story ⬇️
Rahal called the opening race of the 2023 IMSA SportsCar Championship “a good start for us” despite the two BMW M Team RLL entries in the GTP class suffering significant delays on the way to sixth and ninth positions.
“We had a very ambitious programme because we started from a clean sheet of paper 18 months ago,” Leschiutta told Autosport.“We had our challenges during testing, so this was our first 24-hour test - we can be very happy. Leschiutta explained that the entire spec hybrid system — the Williams Advanced Engineering battery, the Bosch MGU and the Xtrac gearbox — were replaced during the stop.
