The FIA World Endurance Championship is headed for their first of the remaining two flyaway races in 2023. Fuji in Japan, and Fuji Speedway is the venue for the 6 Hours of Fuji this weekend. Toyota, at their home turf. They own the track at Fuji Speedway. Their cars have been successful at home now for a number of years. I wonder what the competition in Hypercar from marques like Porsche, Ferrari, Peugeot, and Cadillac will have to say about that. Here are the latest pre-race headlines.
Sports car racing, is my passion and I have been dedicated to it for well over two decades. A great quote from Steve McQueen in his 1971 movie, when he starred as Gulf Porsche driver Michael Delaney, comes to mind. "Racing is life. Anything that happens before or after, is just waiting." - Steve McQueen From the movie, "Le Mans" - 1971
