Apparently the BMW star marked got hot half way through the M4 lap and gave up time against the Cup2's. Imagine a heavier more powerful car on less capable rubber?

If Tesla end up doing a track package I'm sure they would knock a fair chunk of time off.

Sadly when it comes to outright performance, ICE is dead, long live the King.
