Apologies for the audio quality with the footage of my face on frame. I was using a different setup for that footage then I usually do for regular videos. This was a trial run for me!
I hope you all enjoyed the video, and are looking forward to Le Mans this year, it’s sure to be a blast!
we're happy your channel is doing well! You'd need a longer lens camera, and forego the bluescreen. put a nice bookshelf. Plants, books, models, stuff like that :D
Different than with an A
And without wining 😂
@@user-ti2wv4cx9u I suspected that is due to youtube changing its content monetization policy, which will de-moneitizes videos with majority of repetitive visual content, and showing the face could provide "content integrity" to convince youtube (and its dodgy commercial provider) monetizing the video/channel, which is quite ridiculous but sort of the response to remove any profitability of content farm/low quality fake news channel
Imagine if there's 24 hyper cars at the 2024 24 hours of le Mans.
I have to admit that someone at the ACO is kicking themselves for not letting that happen first thing, but smooth to sneak that one in if someone drops out.
Vanwall!!
There is a Reserve Porsche #73 on standby but we'll see
There is a lot of 24s here lol
The hypercar category has absolutely blown up. Fantastic. So many former Formula One drivers now.
And Indy Car Drivers too are flocking
Too bad the Garage 56 Nascar Camaro is a one-off... I'd love to see them in Le Man's again... mainly to keep everyone awake during the night... LOL
That's what I miss from past 24 hours: The sound of a OHV V8 reminding the French countryside who had to come save them.
The car was on display at the Rolex, I wish I could've seen it in action.
@@larrypelrine1799lmao
@@larrypelrine1799 You Americans really have a weird hard-on for that one time you were useful 80 years ago. But again, you lost all wars you participated in since, so I guess you don't have much else to brag about.
@@larrypelrine1799 There will still be enough N/A V8 thunder rumbling with the 3 Cadillacs in Hypercar and the 3 Ford Mustangs and also the 2 Lexus RC F in LMGT3!
Rossi could become the first racer to win both the French motorcycle grand prix at the short Bugatti circuit AND the 24 hours of Le Mans at the long circuit de la sarthe (at least in his class), as both Mike Hailwood and John Surtees failed to do so.
...Oh yes. And Johnny Cecotto also couldn't...
He looks to frail in all of the pictures I have seen of him, in one video some time ago I thought he was near death.
I am not so sure about but I will say this much, he is a competitor... he will be in a lot of rear-view mirrors like he was at Bathurst.
Sylvan Guintoli won 24 hours of Lemans on motorcycle and will be making his debut in LMP 2 in Lemans.
Surely porsche has to bring it home they have too many 963s wow
Reminds me of late 80's group c where all privateers had 962's fighting against the sauber mercedes and jaguars
i was thinking the same haha
True lol
Quantity doesn’t mean Quality but Porsche is improving quickly
I mean yeah there's 6 Porsches but there's 17 other cars. Regardless we all know it hinges entirely on quality of BoP, if they fail on the BoP front what a waste of time it will have all been
Another little fact: LMP2 will be split into two sub classes "P2" and "P2 Pro-Am"
Difference being is that P2 you need to have one silver driver while P2 Pro-Am you need to have one bronze driver in the lineup.
As per usual, I will indeed be rooting for the #311 Whelen Engineering Action Express Cadillac at Le Mans this year. Impressive fields in all classes. This is going to be another fabulous Le Mans 24 Hours.
I have to admit that they have ALOT to fight for this time. Last year was basically a recovery drive from the first 30 minutes onward. They have alot to make up from that.
@@DuvJones They do. I am a huge fan of the team and I realize that they will have a massive challenge, compared to some of the performances they are capable of in IMSA. Le Mans is a different story altogether.
I must admit, it will be a very tough situation at Le Mans for Action Express since the team is so much more of a staple on the IMSA grid. They will be in the second tier of the Hypercar teams, no doubt when it comes to Le Mans. I will be studying the whole field very closely when the race comes around. I still see teams such as Toyota, Ferrari, and the factory Porsche's being the most likely to battle for victory. Then, I believe some of the other teams such as the three Cadillac (including Action Express), Lamborghini, Alpine, Peugeot, they may be in a second tier of teams that will be competitive, surely, but might not be close enough to the top contenders.
@cliffordbruber2791 ill be Getty if Derani is in the seat and crashes like the idiot he is. The fact that he is almost involved in a wreck in T1 of Petite every year should tell you about who he really is.
Great work as always. This year looks to be stacked. Can’t wait to see how TF Sports does with those Corvette Z06 GT3.R.
Long live Oreca cup!
As always, I'll be rooting for Isotta Fraschini! 💪
wish priority would be given to Hypercars then GT3 THEN LMP2, i think almost anyone would rather see another hypercar in exchange for a random LMP2
The things is though, LMP2 is used to develop drivers and teams to race at the top tier
@@mbukukanyau LMP2 doesn't even exist in the rest of the Calendar anymore. As it stands there's a million Formula, GT and Prototype series that exist to develop drivers. The pinnacle of Sportscar Endurance racing should be the goal of every driver's career, not the place where they kick around and learn. Le Mans should be the battleground for the 60 fastest cars/teams the world has to offer.
Next year lmp2 Will be dead
@@d1a2n3n4y6 THE FIA have temporarily closed the lmp2 class because there is such an outrageous amount of cars and entries for the full season that the tracks can’t handle everyone. But they have stated that when given opportunity to the lmp2 class will be brought back in as normal
Honestly I’m astonished and fricking hyped as ever for this season and especially the 24 hour. Last year was insane already. This year is just as crazy Ferrari looking to defend its top class win. Cadillac taking another swing. Porsche getting as many cars as possible on the grid. Frascini making waves. BMW is present now. Toyota trying to take back the gold themselves. Hell even Lamborghini has entered the top class. And they only ever raced in gt3/gte before
This is gonna be a fantastic race season. And oh. Remember the lmp2 class had some of the most epic racing in the series last year. Especially during Le Mans since the inter.europole winner had his foot ran over and broken 6 hours before he claimed the victory for his class. Bro drove a race car with a broken foot to victory. And they were initially the under dogs for the class too. Insane stuff
I like having the LMP2 cars - more categories creates more drama on track. 3 classes is a good mix IMO - though I wouldn't say no to 24 Hypercars either. If only they could squeeze more pit garages in to accommodate a larger field of cars
Cool thing about IDEC sport is that they will be running a Matra livery as a throwback, so that car has to be a cool looking livery for sure!!
That’s awesome!
This will be a great season mark my words thank you for producing this amazing video Jonah! 🤙🏽
Nice video. Good work with green-screen you managed to nearly eliminate the halo effect. So hyped for the race. Might go to Europe around the same time for a wedding hopefully even drop by for the race.
Thanks as always FJ. So much to look out for in this race, can’t wait to get over there! I have 3 picks, the Andre Lotterer and Matt Campbell Porsches and the Nicholas Lapierre Alpine.
Awesome breakdown

Entry list reveal + face reveal? Two for one!
Also super excited for this years running! Thanks again for the excellent coverage, glad to have discovered your channel in the lead up to the recent Daytona 24 🙌
Thank you for the support!! Glad you enjoyed the video, and happy that you’re here!
Expect Proton Competition to drop their P2 or one of their GT entries to add a second Hypercar
If they do, hopefully it's the LMP2 car, that class needs to be scrapped.
It’ll be the P2 cos there is zero chance they drop one of the Mustangs when they’re full season and factory backed
This year will be incredible to see Le Mans, it will surely leave us images that we will remember for decades! It is incredible how a good regulation can make a category re-emerge with such force. They have more Hypercars than the F1 grid. Added to that next year we will have a V12 Aston Martin. And maybe we will see other Hypercars, like another Ferrari, Porsche. This is a dream .
Awesome Entry list for Lemans, Cant wait
Nice hat Jonah!
What a 24hr race it will be 😁
Nice entry list
Also AF corsa will have a lot of members there, with 6 cars to run, holly molly
Excellent list and coverage. Is there a garage 56 entry this year?
Thank you! Unfortunately not this year for a Garage 56 project.
Can't wait!
Epiiiiic field!! Even better than the 2 best editions i remember : 1991 and 1999!!
It's gonna be amazing!
Do you know if Lemans will be air on Motor Trend Network in America this year?
Wow! This is going to be a great year of racing.
Indeed!
Im excited for the complete season that begins this week with the tests and next weekend with the first race off the season :), and im very hyped for the 24h Le Mans for sure, that would be amazing ❤, there would be great fights and drama like every year but that is what we all Love i thing. ❤👍
I’m pulling for the #6 Porsche 963 / Andre Lotterer car. Love the Cadillacs as well. I was there in 2017, 2019, 2023… and I leave shortly for the 2024 race. I, too, would love to see 24 HyoerCars for 2024!
The hypercar field is sooo packed for this year I can't wait.
I will definitly be rooting for BMW in Hypercar and LMGT3 but also Alpine because of Mick
Hello Jonah and I wanted to ask you a question ¿you will upload a video of your impressions of le mans ultimate ?
Hopefully yes! I plan to upgrade my PC to play Le Mans Ultimate and when I do, I hopefully will do a video here on TH-cam about it and I’ll for sure be streaming live on Twitch. That channel will mainly be for Le Mans Ultimate! The twitch link is in the videos description.😀
@@FormulaJonahNot to mention a possible championship involving the game 😉
Game is trash
@@FormulaJonah when is garage 59 coming back to le mans
@@noahacton8448 One of the few who think that.
Man the hole hypercar class was a fcking brilliant idea. I’m so excited
If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure the second proton competition 963 was confirmed for Le Mans
Love the proton Porsche livery. Cool callback to group c
Dreaming of a Ford and Mazda Hypercar return one day - if the category goes from strength to strength, who knows! Always had a soft spot for Nissan too
It will be my first time going to Le Mans 24. I hope 1-2 Ferrari in HY class 😅
Well now we gotta see what Garage 56 will bring to the table if they do
the reserve list is because the grid is full? and if there are more competitors is dangerous?
Can’t wait for Aston to join hypercar and we need merc McLaren and Audi in Hypercar eventually
such a shame not to see audi and mercedes at least in gt3
As they aren't running in WEC, they aren't allowed to run at Le Mans
just like in ama supercross, we are eating good this year man what a time
I really hope we got another unusual entry on Garage 56 this year
no garage 56 special car?
What is the chance someone will drop ? And did it happen recently?
Where can I watch this races on a canadian TV
You think they forced out Vanwall for more manufactors cars to enter?
hope the Grello will do well
3cadillac👑wooow
No Pratt & Miller Corvette this year??
I really like what Ferrari did with the C8 for the 296. 😅
I would like to see the Mustang Sampling race at LeMans, tbh I don't like LMP2 and I would remove 1 LMP2 and add that 963
They should add a rebuild garage 56 f1 car
Im more interested in the Mustang lmgt3 this year!
They is a rumor, if no one else drops off, Proton will drop one of the GT3 entries for HY entry.
someone give one ferrari seat to juan pablo montoya, its the only race left for the triple crown
LMH枠23台はやばい
The livery of the mclaren is I believed based on the F1 livery
YOOOOO FORMULA JON FACE REVEAL
European Le Mans should open a Hyper Car Non Hybrid class since WEC has far too many Hybrid cars.
Since Glickenhaus pulled out of WEC, same with Vanwall Racing not being able to race this year.
Like it or not but bear with me.
Give Privateers A Chance. Please.
I doubt Glickenhaus or Vanwall would want to race in ELMS though. They want to do the big races, not do a 4h race in Paul Ricard or Aragon.
Why a non-hybrid class? Them being non-hybrid wasn't the issue, it were the car designs, lack of funding and testing that caused them to fail. Glickenhaus couldn't even fund a full season, let alone make upgrades to the car and Vanwalls design was flawed and the engine aswell but a hybrid would not have fixed it, and if anything would have caused them to be even worse.
The hybrid systems don't add any extra power, they are just a different way of producing the power. A non-hybrid LMH car and a LMDh car are basically the same, the only advantage the LMDh car has is the hybrid power gives instant torque but then also has more weight.
Cam Matt Campbell win Daytona24, Sebring12 and Le Mans24?
I certainly hope so. You obviously recognise his qualities. He's just won the Bathurst 12 hour with Laurens Vanthoor and Ayhancan Guven in a Manthey Porsche. Have you seen him in the last 20 minutes of the 2019 Bathurst 12? Also in a Porsche.
I don't see why not, he'll certainly strengthen that #5 massively
They should also have a classic event with cars from the earliest days of Le Mans , probably sorted into decades , doing demonstration laps , with a little friendly competition , before the actual event ; it would be great to see 1920s Bentleys , Mercedes , Bugattis , Alfas running together ; then Silver Arrows from the late 1930s , and again from the 1950s cars such as the 300SLR , D-Types , Ferraris , Maseratis etc all doing runs in the lead up to the actual race .
Uh, yeah, Le Mans Classic is a thing, actually.
Porsche motto : "The more cars we have in the race; higher the chance of winning the race we have :D"
honestly im surprised at absents of the 911's only two when back in the early days there alot of them.
They are just not that competitive, and Corvette Racing just dominates the class. This being a development year for the new Chevrolet, it's an opportunity for other teams to shine, after this year, Chevrolet is going to be back in full force.
@@mbukukanyauI see Ferrari 296 as a great car to battle Corvette
Porsche has been losing teams in GT3 for a couple of years now and it has accelerated since last year. As he said, Iron Dames/Iron Lynx and GR, plus Proton Competition are in different makes this year. The cars are just not competitive.
@fqeagles21 The Ferraris are fast. Very fast, so is Mercedes and Aston , with Ford, we shall see. That Mustang is going to need a lot of BOP assistance to compete in this class, just like Lexus.
@@mbukukanyau Could be
I would actually really like some sort of limit of how many of 1 type of hypercar can be on track. not as low as 2 but like, the fact there might be 7 porsches this year, and potentially more next year... can we cap it? it would actually be a good thing if teams who wanted in the class had to either make their own car or partner with another manufacturer to join because that means more variety and thats always a good thing. also really dont like the idea of porsche getting credit for wins when by just completely swamping the grid like what ended up being the case for a while in the 70s/80s. 6 of one car is enough while theyres teams running 1, ya know?
I get your point but I think the FIA just want as many Hypercars on the track as possible and don't care which ones they are but I do agree more variety would be best hopefully more privateers join in the coming seasons and use various cars
well the other manufacturers could incentivize privateer entries, but they just dont. Porsche shouldnt be knocked for doing something that any of the other manufacturers could. Im sure teams would be lining up to run Toyotas or Ferraris if they were given the chance.
Well it's not really their fault no other manufacturer is really providing customer cars.
Also how are teams supposed to make their own car / partner up? Teams like Proton or JOTA might have the money to run a car, developing and testing a car from ground up requires a really big team and costs so much more money than the current model. Partnering up won't work either. How are they supposed to do that? E-Mail Audi if they want to build a car for them? If a manufacturer wanted to join they would do it with a factory effort, not some privateer team. If those were the only options we wouldn't have any privateers at all.
I don't really see the issue with this either to be honest. Currently we have many cars, quite a lot of different brands, space for many highly talented drivers that might not have had a drive without these privateer efforts and they aren't taking up space of any other teams either. It only has positives.
The reason HyperCar is successful is because the FIA listened to the manufacturers in setting the rules. NOT LISTENING is why Sports cars series in the past had so many down periods with manufacturers pulling out. Allowing the makers to sell cars to privateers helps support research and development and also direct expenses of running the factory team. I think the game plan of all of the manufacturers ( except for maybe Toyota) is to eventually provide customer cars. It just hasn't happened yet as they need to get the factory teams in a competitive position as well as create more car building capacity. Even Porsche was delayed last year as it did not deliver any customer cars until after LeMans.
1st :) Hello Jonah
Hello!
I vote for Porsche, but I hope the newcomer Lamborghini does well too !
23 hypercars????
wec is amazing...
All thumbs up for Toyota and Peugeot.
I hope be 24 hyper cars
Me too!
best is the top class in wec le mans gold era in the race 2024
Six 963's 😶
Too bad the blue monster won't return to keep people up at night
Rossi acquitted himself pretty well at the 12 Hours of Bathurst. He can potentially do a good job at Le Mans.
i live for the american mispronunciations
other than that love the video good work
Le Mans organisers missing a trick, why not put in 24 Hypers in 2024 for 24 Hour race❓😓 There is a 24th car right there. Weird.
Nyck debris makes his return
So Team Hendricks isnt going to race at Le Mans this year?
Nope
There’s to many LMP2 cars. There should be more spots for LMGT3 and the top class. One make series don’t bring the excitement and passion.
That was a great run down, and not a bowl of alphabet soup with class gobbledygook. Le Mans is classic racing not made near unintelligible by too many classes.
Shocked that Pratt and Miller said no to the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
MUSTANG💪💪💪
Wow no Mercedes at LeMans
Why they allow so much Porsche? :/ can't wait to go at Imola soon!
Only team that has customer cars available
There is never too much Porsche
@@joshuabracero8581 Ferrari #83 is a customer entry, technically.
@falinestixiaolong9691 "technically" yeah but we all know it really isn't
The organisers have completely ruined the last great endurance race,with the Americanisation of the slow zone/safety car/unlapping yourself nonsense. Its no longer about the endurance of the car,the skill of the drivers and pit crew. Now you can bin it in the gravel if you like, make mistakes and have technical failures,but as long as you have safety cars and get back on the lead lap,you can win. The inconsistency was glaring in relation to Ferrari last year and the ridiculous unlapping rules cost the iron dames a class win.
Porsche needs to bring up 963 to the performance level of 919; otherwise, they'll go nowhere (again)!
why cant we get rid of lmp2
No.
Why should we ?
@@kaiizo974 its stupid. and disgusting to look at.
@@kaiizo974 they are pretty much uesless, its not like the old days of LMP2/675 when there were multiple manufactures competeing in it and they pretty much had their own race.
Fair enough, wouldn't mind seeing a whole series full of LM2 tho' @@cool3865
What the fuck is up with that background music?
What is the problem with the music?
12:47 (101)
101st year since they started racing but it wasn't run in 1936 due to workers strikes and between 1940-1948 due to WW2 and subsequently the track being rebuilt so it is the 92nd running
Toyota has never won LeMans against factory teams. Only against privateer teams.
Same can be said for Audi back in the early LMP1 days.
@@pmayo7894 Audi has won LeMans several times against factory teams. This is not in dispute.
As of yet, Toyota has not won against any factory team.
Can they? Maybe.
I’d wager they would trade all of their WEC championships for LeMans wins.
@@christopherlamitie3506 - "Audi has won LeMans several times against factory teams" - other factory teams... which aren't exactly good to begin with.
No RLL BMW for Hypercar, also no Mercedes AMG SLS GT3 or Audi R8 GT3
Wtf are you on about? Why would RLL, bmws IMSA TEAM NOT WEC, enter Le Mans? Just cus AX did so last year? Thats Cadillac not BMW.
Also the FIA/ACO were clear to say that manufacturers who were already competing in Hypercar would be favoured when it comes to who would compete in LMGT3.
Audi Customer GT racing is dead and Mercedes isnt really that important to the FIA and ACO as much as Ford or McLaren, who I assume were granted a spot cus Zak Brown co owns United Autosports and McLaren have stated the intention to build an LMDh
I would hope there arent any amg sls u know considering those arent in production anynore
@bernardoberner4484 why did Action Express enter last year and the Porsche Penkse with the 3rd entry? The WEC/FIA doesn't control the 24hrs of Le Mans it's the ACO, go look it up, and look at the LMP2 class is in the Le Man even 2024 though LMP2 is not in the WEC season this year. Yes, if the ACO wants to, they can invite RRL BMW GTP car at Le Man this year.
@@bernardoberner4i don't think that's the case for RLL, they could but they seemingly don't want to
just like porsche could easily field 2 extra 911 rsr cars in gte pro for the 2018 and 2019 editions, ran by a different team (manthey racing in europe and core autosport in north america)
@@joaquingonzalez834 what do you mean? I didnt say anything, I just said that this guys comment makes no sense, cus theres been literally NOTHING said about an RLL entry for Le Mans
I don’t think manufacturers should bring more than 2 cars tbh 2 each is right
A third car at Le Mans has become some sort of tradition already. Not every motorsport should be like F1. If anything, no motorsport other than F1 should be like F1.
unlike f1, gt3 is a customer team race, in other words, there is no factory team running the car, instead they give it to other teams (often privateers or factory-backed)
btw this is not about WEC, which enforces that same rule, but le mans this year and other gt series in general
Don't show me the face cam😂 just get on with the news
