WEC out for the season with a win for @JotaSport and Caddy.

It was brisk out trackside but I’m always amazed by the access sportscar racing affords fans.

Until next year @FIAWEC

*WEC Finale* over 6 hours in Monza

- Fp1/2/3 have all been mostly wet, but Hyperpole for both classes was mostly dry. It looks dry for race day.

- 50 Ferrari on Pole, ahead of Genesis and Caddy. 0.2 covering the top 3.

- 6/7 stops in fully dry conditions for hypercars

- Monza offers big ‘lift-coast options’ for drivers who can make a huge difference to fuel mileage.

- 2 Compounds of tyres available: Medium and Soft; expect teams to lean on the Soft.

- 10/12 degree temps expected; strategy will trend towards holding on to warm tyres

- You are allowed to change ‘half sets’, so expect this as a strategy to retain temperature.

- Tyre deg is very low, as ever in Monza, There are no tyre warmers allowed; they are talking about 5/6 second off the pace outlaps.

- It’s the hardest first corner of the year in my opinion.

- The HY Drivers' Championship, and GT3 Drivers and Teams, are up for grabs.

- Hypercar manufacturers’ championship has already been won by Toyota.

⁃ On air with TNT/Eurosport at 10:30CET, 9:30UK see you there!

On my way to the temple of speed to present the @FIAWEC finale with my friends @tntsports

See you on race day 🫡

We have a 20 year old F1 World Champion - that is something quite incredible.

But the warmth of the guy, his natural empathy for the people he works with and around, is something truly spectacular. Alongside tremendous talent.

Kimi will have the team, paddock and fanbase celebrate with him. immense.

By the guidelines, PIA is at fault there...

But you get the feel that they could have made it through with a bit more give-and-take all round.
