He’s fully committed in a way you don’t see too often from Porsche ring videos. Talk about using all the track and then some! It looks like he’s fighting the front end more than I’d expect. Epic lap though, his every into the main straight is mega!

Committed. That’s a GREAT word.
Remember, this is a street car, so would expect front to give up first pushing that hard, anyway. Really cool!

Awesome - (But I couldn't tell if he had the nannies on or was shifting for himself....)
Amazing time. The GT2 was a full 30-40km/h faster. Is the GT3 packing more rear wing, or is the GT2 just that much more ate up with motor?

I suspect a rematch on like tires and driver would yield a larger gap. GT2 RS ran on MPSC N2 tires while GT3 RS was on latest pine tar sticky MPSC TypeR tire and videos suggest that Estre was charging even harder than Kern's already aggressive pace.

AP's reaction in this video is awesome... @ :54 So much pride, accomplishment, joy, relief, shown in just a two second shot of him.
