    A 10% change shouldn't be that much of a problem.

    For a brief moment, I thought I had clicked on the Indy Car forum.

    It's a bit of a misleading title. "Switching to ethanol" infers a move to 100% ethanol.

    Increasing the blend is, ok a change, but not drastic.

    My question is.... does this mean ALMS has a different fuel spec to the ACO regs for Lemans? Or was it always different?

    Yeah, it's more like 'ALMS Series switches to E10'.
