How this is so much more exciting than F1. Fantastic commentators, fantastic circuit, fantastic cars, fantastic fans. Well done Corvette let's hope the trend continues and the beautiful C8 Corvette gets its first Championship. Regards from England.

because the cars can run nose to tail and actually race... here’s hoping the 2021 rules actually fix that, cause it’s sad when all the feeder series (gp2/3 etc) can do that and consistently produce better racing.

You wanna stay in tune to these broadcasts for sure just make sure you hit the subscribe button to the right of screen just underneath title of broadcast. Not assuming you’re unknowing of anything or callin you any names or nuthin like. Just remember that I don’t know what you might or might not know man. Hope I helped you out.

What an excellent race even though we got soaked. Glad they didn't red flag it all the way to the end. Thank you IMSA!

I love IMSA

Duuude, this race was the shit!!! One of the best races I've ever seen, exciting battles from the beggining to the end. The battle between P1s was insane, Castroneves battlong both Mazdas was so intense. Dry and wet. Glad they didn't interrupt the race and let them race those last laps in soaking wet weather. Me and my dad have gone crazy watching it here in Brazil. No F1 race has gone any close to this

Probably my favourite American circuit. Long straights, fast corners, great loop to race at. And the rain was such a nice addition. As an European, I don't watch all races of IMSA SportsCar, but I always try to remember the Road America weekend.

Amazing, I love how the race can just turn from a normal race with some good overtakes into that

From one of your Aussie fans, thanks once again for a timely upload of the last race IMSA Official. Very much appreciated. I've said it before and will again. There are some Aussie racing series sites that could learn a lot from you guys about how to treat your fans.

I have been going to Road America since the early 1970s and your broadcasts allow me to see more of the experience than being at the track. Thank you for allowing us to see this. I have always been a Corvette fan since John Greenwood drove his Batmobile Corvette there in the seventies. Thanks again for allowing people like me to see this racing without putting my life at risk due to the Covid Pandemic. I work in healthcare with direct patient contact and have been living the life of a hermit so I do not put my patients at risk and this has been a breathe of fresh air to watch such an exciting race with such enthusiastic and knowledgeable announcers. The best thing is Corvette took first and second place. Wow. To me it was awesome to see the drivers and people at the track wearing masks and I thank them for doing this not just for themselves but for all of the people that are at risk from the Covid-19 virus. Thank you all so very much for caring about others, it means so very much to me and the healthcare providers I work with. Real men and women wear masks. Thanks again. Duane Darling, PT

John, Jeremy, & Shay do about the best goddamn job any human being could ask for. Absolutely friendly, lively, informed, and compelling. If you can run a country, here in the U.S. we are currently hiring.

This race was insane! I'd love to watch it again as a premiere! excellent idea

Thank you for reliving a great race! I cannot watch this race in live because early Monday morning in Japan...

Thank you, IMSA, for uploading the full race for free, particularly with the best commentators in the business. I do have one nitpick, though. Please go back to showing the manufacturers on the scrolling train at the bottom of the screen. It's not a big deal, but I'd still like to see this change. I was super pumped when the Sebring race went back to showing the manufacturers, and I'm a little disappointed that it's reverted to showing the classes. I can already tell what class each car is in by the color of its number background, but I often forget which manufacturer each team is using, particularly for partial-season entries like Compass Racing, Gradient Racing, and Team Hardpoint. This problem only gets worse for endurance races, when there are more one-off entries. Again, not a huge issue, and thanks for the upload.

This was sooo much fun to watch. Thanks a lot IMSA for making my day.

Those vettes look amazing!!

Amazing Race, hope everyone is staying safe out there

Sound was GREAT this time. Previous races you allowed just a bit too much engine noise over the announcers. MUCH thanks for making available.

Missed getting up there this year. First time was 1967

This race is pretty much epic in the wet...

van der sande is RIDICULOUSLY lucky. In a previous race this year, penalties got him a lap behind, but almost immediately 2 yellow saw him get caught up and with plenty of time to spare win the race. This race, the cadillacs sucks, but a SUPER lucky pit stop tire change allowed him to be brought up to the win. The Mazdas deserved to win this race. Stupid rain.

I still dearly miss Mazda (and the RT24-P specifically) from top flight IMSA. Would love to see what they could do in this new RWYB + hybrid age. I'm sure they'd be unstoppable

Shea Adam Is Awesome. Shea Is Always So Well Informed, So Personable & Articulate. I Just Love Her Light & Smiling Voice, It's Always Such A Pleasure To Listen To Shea. She Simply Sounds Lovely.
