Well, welcome everybody to a very special pre-Siebering edition of the Week in SportsCars podcast, part of the Marshall Prooproup podcast collection, supported as ever by the Justice Brothers and Toronto Motorsports.com.

I'm Stephen Kilby, editor of daily sportscar.com.

Joining me is my partner in crime, Graham Goodwin, the editor-in-chief of DFC.

Graham, how are you doing?

I'm doing great, Stephen. Thank you for asking. I always look forward to that moment at these podcasts.

Well, you chose for me to do the intro, so yeah, you're paying the price.

Loads to talk about, Graham. It's a big week for sports car racing.

Seabing Week always is, always an exciting race, always a

packed grid, that's no different this year. Got that plus loads of other news nuggets to talk

about across sports car racing. So let's start, shall we, with Imsa and Seabring. It's a 55 car entry.

Undoubtedly going to be one of the biggest in terms of

viewership of the year.

Where do you want to start? We're talking about this race. I tell you where I don't want to start is I don't want to get obsessive about BOP. Really? No, because it's boring. Yeah, but normally you do. No, no. It's boring. And I think what we want to start talking about here is, is just exactly where the form book lies in the UNCCTP Championship.

And you've got to start talking about where Porsche Penske and motorsport are.

And probably after this podcast airs, we'll find out just which livery those 9-6-3s are actually carrying. And I think we've got an ink as to what it might be, and it's going to look great. But they're coming off the back of yet another win at Daytona, which seems like a million years ago. Yeah, especially with the gap, with the Qatar delay and all this sort of stuff in the middle.

It just, it feels like we haven't been racing for it. It's not true, but it feels like we haven't been racing for ages. I don't think I've been home. It feels like the off season. Don't think I've been home for this long between races in about 10 years. And truth be told, Trudy's, actually, I went in, that she was packing the bag. Yeah. Here's the thing. And your bag.

It's my bag.

It's what you need to do to real Penske. actually I went in that she was packing a bag. Yeah. Here's the thing. And your bag.

It's my bag.

It's what you need to do to reel Penskeen. They've just been so awesome, so operationally efficient. Just give them 20 kilos, Graham. Give them 20 kilos and reduction of power. That's what it is. They write 1,500 words about it. But that's one end of it. On the other end of it is what on earth is going on with Wayne Solar Racing?

Just, just they need to show some. But that's one end of it. And the other end of it is what on earth is going on with Wayne Solar Racing?

Just they need to show some form and they need to show it fast.
