Starts are always hectic, usually at turn 1, but this mornings start to the 6 Hours of Castellet was terrible. Everything looks to be fine, pace car leading out, yellow flags, etc. GREEN-GREEN-GREEN, field jumps but out of sight, the pace car stays on track. It had never entered pit-road causing an accordion effect for the GTE class.
Pause it at 22sec and you can see how Paul Ricard has a hump causing a lot of blinding to what is happening upfront.
In the end, Porsche gets the shit end of the stick, losing 4/5 cars.
