Title: DiResta wins at LeMans
Post by: Monty on September 21, 2020, 12:40:42 PM: I know it is a bit off topic but I was really pleased to see Paul DiResta win LeMans LMP2 and get 5th overall.
I have always felt that Paul could have done better in F1 but didn't have the money to get a seat where he could really show his talent.
