There was an existing confirmed issue with Titanium cages. Supplier had to be replaced, and this was causing delays
it seems like there might be another problem with the Magnesium wheels, yes.

if you have wheels and cage, delays compounded, but even the steel caged WP cars like mine, (and I think Seb?) are now affected.
That might not be why Seb car is being recalled, but seems reasonably likely?

Mine is delayed already by about 4 weeks but due to complete this week - not been told of any change to this yet, but I'm not confident!
Ok for now, but 7 weeks before trip to Spa, and I need it for that...

It's not an easy car to drive As i said Power/assistance is not in favor of safety like GT3 or GT4...

Very easy to carry too much speed into corners with this car, it also looks like he may have downshifted mid apex to try to slow himself. Either way, I bet its a handful on the track.

With 700 HP and a High compression engine, you can't treat the throttle as an ON / OFF Switch. I wouldn't blame the car for that.
You can break traction in the rear instantly on both leading and trailing throttle. Throttle modulation becomes essential with 2 WD High HP Turbos.
I learned that on my '79 Turbo with half the HP. Tough to fight the laws of physics.
