Good stuff, I'll watch with interest. I wish top drivers would try other disciplines more often, watching him have a crack at Indy was the highlght of the season for me.
Absolutely. I had never watched a 500 race before with interest, but I watched the entire race with Alonso's participation.I'm sure his involvement in other race series will only endear him to many other viewers around the world.

Toyota are the last remaining manufacturer team, and the last remaining LMP1H team, but there are (or will be next year) several privateer teams running non-hybrid LMP1 cars.
This could be a huge factor in why Alonso wanted to try this year.At least "unlike Indy" the engine will not be a Honda.
McLaren sure are pulling out all the stops to keep Alonso.
Just lets hope Le Man is not the only chance for victory for Alonso in 2018.

Isn't LMP1 basically dead?
Actually I think lmp1 could be really interesting next year with several new lmp1teams including a 2 car effort from Manor. Yes Toyota re the only manufacturer entry but it doesn’t mean they will dominateELUSIVEJIM said:
