The commentators speculated the scream was more out of frustration or anguish at the realisation of making a critical mistake and being unable to salvage the situation as the car was driven by a silver driver (driving at Lemans for the first time) who made the mistake of getting off the dry racing line to let the charging Hypercars through but in doing so, got onto the wet part and lost control. A more seasoned GT driver may have held the racing line and forced the Hypercars to wait but it was a tough lesson for the driver to learn. Tried to do the right thing from being overtaken but at the wrong place and time and cost the team a chance at a podium.
Welcome! I found it late as well, about 10 years ago in my forties. Check out WEC Full Access, it'll be out in about a week. They do them for every race, the one for last year's Le Mans is a must-watch, easily as crazy as this race. 🙂
To be honest, in the past 30 years, you wouldnt have missed much. Group C era in the early 90s was quite good. After that it was boring. Now, those new Hypercars and GT3 rules, are the best thing that could have happen to this event. I tried to get tickets for this year, but no chance. 😞 Despite very long safety car phases, this was the best race I have ever seen. So much drama, so much competition. Just wow.
Le Mans had always been interesting to see on site, but for TV public, for many years, it had been boring. Only one or two manufacturers really competed for the overall victory (and, when they were two, one was clearly ahead). Hypercar rules changed it. It's like the '60s again.
@@Gentleman...Driver He missed 1998 and 1999 though. Best years since Group C in my opinion. 2023 and 2024 were ok but the rules are made for the show, with lots of safety cars bunching everybody up, and of course that bloody BoP. It all tastes a bit fake to me. Back then the races were great without these rules and all car makers giving everything they got to win, not relying on some BoP to get close to the front. Cars were also a lot less reliable back then, anything could happen at any time. I think I watched 18 or 19 hours these 2 years.

This is a super well done video to digest the race! I hope you can make an extended highlights of 30 to 60 minutes showing entire battles since this felt like crash highlights at times 😂
They will, it'll be out in about 10 days. Check out WEC Full Access, they do them for every race and most of it is behind the scenes footage. It's amazing.
This is just a get out the highlights video on race day production. In a week or two the All Access video will be a 45 minute production with a lot more content.
What a thrilling and awesome race! Le Mans 24h delivered again. I watched the entire 24h and it was totally worth it with Ferrari making it two wins in a row. Totally deserved victory after battling through such difficult conditions and it was just wonderful to see the emotions of the Ferrari drivers when Nielsen crossed the finish line. FORZA FERRARI!!! 🏆👏
I think the biggest winners were the Jota Sport #12. Building an entire new car in under 40 hours, getting very little shakedown running, to still finish the race in the top 10 and on the lead lap. Incredible stuff.
7:27 "Conntact between the number 51 car and number number eight in very wet conditions early in the afternoon would result in a penalty for 51" That's not really a fair representation of the incident. This was the critical moment of the whole race. You might also put it like this: With 2 hours remaining the top 4 cars were separated by less than 30 seconds - Ferrari, Toyota, Ferrari, Toyota. The third place Ferrari took out the second place Toyota leaving the lead Ferrari to eventually take the win.
3:37 this is a joke, right?😂 Vanthoor just came out the pit on cold tyres and was being lapped by Robert, ignored blue flags, tried to push him onto the gt car, cut the chicane just to stay in front and keep blocking him, and finally it was him who caused the crash, you can see him turning slightly left just before contact. That' what you call "fast and clean?" lmaooo
Im surprised Ford didn't at least get a mention for getting to podium on the first year of the program in gt3 . In fact its Ferrari's first year in their new gt3 car and they were nowhere to be seen. Good job ford.
@@gabrielegabriele8099Lol that was a year ago. Qatar: 5th & 7th Imola: 4th & 12th Spa: 6th & 13th Le Mans: 6th & dead last DNF They haven't finished on the lead lap once this year. Blame the drivers if you want, fact is there's more competition and the 296 hasn't delivered.
@@ragereset2795 And those results what are supposed to demonstrate, if not what I told ? Exactly this, in the two teams 2 drivers out of 3 are poor. 296 GT3 wins in this year's 24 Daytona and some races in ADAC and GT world competitions. Then, it is maybe true that 296 is perhaps not at the peak of performances in terms of development. Ferrari does not put much focus on it, most likely due to resources routed mainly in the LMH project. Chances are that the development is not followed by the factory but by AF corse which has difficult in translating knowledge from the 488 GT3 world. I find hard to believe that the 296 is a flop, sharing nearly the same base engine with the 499P and having the availability of a careful planned aerodynamics. Then, I would like to NOT say that 296 seems to be severely impacted by BoP, I don't want to start another flame discussion. That does not means that without BoP the 296 will win everywhere, of course, but maybe we could see an increase of performances.
Shit happens, look at Corvette. Also that M4 has been bullying the supercars considering its basically a saloon car. 3rd in the Championship by 30 points over 4th and just 2 points behind 1st and 2nd which are both Porsche's tied on 75 points. Porsche leading both Hypercars and the GT3 class.
@@gabrielegabriele8099 So you're saying Ferrari don't bother to nurture the 296 program? I sort of agree, but that's not a defence of them. I agree the 296 isn't fully developed, and we'll definitely see it improve. But the fact remains it just got beat at Le Mans by a couple of Mustangs. The fact it won NBR24 a year ago makes it worse; the Mustang don't even exist a year ago.
@@MMAli-rq8kdYes, that’s why they were forced to pit the #50 just to close the passenger door that was never going to break off. Clear favoritism for Ferrari…
@@BlueSkyCrystals That's a rule for safety reasons, if your driver can't manage to close the door you have to pit and fix it, it's applied to anyone not just ferrari🤦♂
@@BlueSkyCrystals Favorism is letting someone get away with breaking the rules like not getting a penalty for an unsafe release, or giving them a small penalty for an error that caused their opponent to lose their chance at winning the race.
The 50 got first. Not the 51. But the no.8 Toyota had realistic chances to catch up with the no 50. more so than the no.7 that eventually took 2nd place.
Ferrari winning the Le Mans 24h back to back. That's absolutely fantastic achievement while racing against tough opponents. Fighting till the end and never giving up. Great job Ferrari! Let's go for it again next year!
5 second penalty for ferrari 51 was rediculous for taking out what would possibly have been the race winning toyota 8 car. Same for the many unsafe release penalties.
The craziest thing is that 329,000 people bought tickets at roughly $1500 - $2500 each which translates to roughly $500,000,000 dollars and drivers make fuck all 😂😂
That's shit tbh. Same in all sports though. If you're not someone everyone knows and wants you get nothing compared to your competition. And obviously the event holders make a bomb. That's tickets. But what about all the other things you buy and pay for when you're there. And at Le Man. Money is there to be spent and made though. So no one can be mad at any of it. Hope everyone had a good time
8:21 - No the Ferrari broke the line first (the line is before where you think it is) and then eased off as he was down to 2% total energy #50 did not have another full speed lap in it. If this wasn’t 🏁 he’d have to box for fuel 🙀
This video is riculous! I watched tge whole race on French TV, and was a huge amount of sensational wheel to wheel racing for the lead, throughout the race. Yet, here, in a supposed 'Race highlights', all we get are crashes and pit clips. Very, VERY poor coverage compared with previous WEC race videos.
This highlight is a joke: 1. They mainly focused on hypercars, no LMP2 or LMGT3 2. They mainly focused on crashes, no overtake, no duel Overall, it's too short for a 24h race
That's because this is only a thrown-together-on-no-sleep teaser. Full Access and Race Review will be an hour each. I agree the P2s got shafted, they always do and it's annoying. I think it's because the class is doomed to be quietly removed over the next few years. Can't complain about GT3 though; they're so new that nobody's really figured them out yet. It makes them almost impossible to BoP accurately, l kept an eye on them in timing and there wasn't much close racing. Next year will be miles better.
@ragereset2795 Nope, the 12 Hours of Sebring, or the Sebring 12 Hours, the same thing. I don't think Bathurst does a bad job at having a 12 hour race. But Sebring really made the role it's own and anything else just doesn't feel quite right.
guys I'm sorry, but you really gotta improve your game with these It was such an amazing race, but the terrible tv direction just made it annoying and these highlights are just not enough for how much happened I know people say it all the time, but you have to get on F1s level with the online quality of content
LMAO another F1 refugee who thinks this is the complete post-race package. 🤦🏻♂️ Full Access makes an absolute mockery of anything F1 does to cover their boring, predictable soap opera of a sport. 😅
F1 is a dead horse, WEC is just better in everything else Cars (all of them in all different shapes and sizes, even applies to the GT3's) Driver lineups (most of them are ex-F1, whereas Stroll has always had a seat since 2017 without showing any sort of merit) tracks (most of the tracks that both series race on are the same (only exceptions being Fuji and Le Mans) but its more interesting in WEC than in F1)

How entitled are you? This was made handful of hours after the race ended and you expect it to be comprehensive? Editing takes a while, be patient ffs.
Tenth for a chassis that's new this year and has never been to Le Mans before against is an incredible result. Well, unless you're a 9yo boy. Maybe you are.
Honestly kinda happy that Toytota and Ferrari seemed happier with each other this time around, possibly because there was less "direct" competition. Both teams should be proud :)
Would like to see a more detailed highlight for each category, specially the LMGT3. Watched 14 hours of this year race, and it was emotional until the very end. Congratulations to Ferrari for the win in Hypercar, although I was cheering for Toyota I must admit. And in the LMGT3, a big cheers to Iron Dames for finishing at P5, I watched some good hours on their onboard camera on TH-cam! Great edition from this year's 24 hours of Le Mans! 😎
Fantastic Race (I'm personally pleased with Nielsen🇩🇰, who got the Ferrari 50 to the checkered flag 1st👏) If you want more, then watch Steve McQueen in THE unforgettable Le Mans movie😊
I wouldn't seek sensible comments on something like that in a TH-cam comments section, most of them are people bursting into tears because the Full Access video wasn't released while the drivers were still on the podium. Phenomenal result for Lambo and Iron Lynx, the first four classified Le Mans finishes for that marque, all in a single race. The SC63 should improve quickly, as it races in IMSA endurance events as well as WEC. 👌🏼
@@truantrayDo you appreciate LeMans at all? You constantly whine about the biggest element of LeMans itself: attrition. To win LeMans, you must first finish LeMans. That's a feat in of itself and why they'll come back next year to try to win. Stick to sprint races until then.
@@F1STUDIOSTo be fair this year hasn't been terrible but they BOTTLED Canada along with any chance of a championship fight as Leclerc entered the weekend just a wins worth of points behind verstappen and ended up 56 points behind so that sucks :/
It's sad what they do to the team that stayed with them during the sport's darkest times. But hey its ferrari they got history and shit we can't penalize them!
meno male che hai anche il nome italiano, sembri di quelli esterofili fino al midollo, chiamandoti Marco non credo che tu sia austriaco o francese o giapponese !!!!!
It wasn't an unsafe release, I swear, so many of you want these cars to be in bubblewrap and the penalties be under a complete microscope. The Ferrari was not in the fast lane, slowed down, and let the LMP2 past. Now, if the Ferrari passed the LMP2, then you could argue for unsafe release.

Mick Schumacher選手の大ファンで応援していました💪
AlpineTEAMはトラブルで完走出来なかったですが、また次のraceを楽しみにしています‼️
そしてLe Mans 24hour raceに携わったTEAM、Driver、Stuff、マーシャル、official、全ての方々へ、本当に24時間お疲れ様でした❕️そしてありがとうございました🌠🌠🌠
最後にMickへ💛
I love always Mick Schumacher🤟
I managed to tune into 16 hours of it and man I had a blast
'managed'? did you fell asleep or was it the wife? ;-) didn't you feel weird when it was over?
@@conflictica1983 Lolx a bit of both but it was fathersday weekend so I wasn’t bothered too much 😂. When I did have to leave the tv i just put in my headphones and streamed it on my phone. I was def tired the rest of Saturday. It was my first time watching a Le Mans race so I wanted to enjoy as much as I could.
@@mightymurph550 Le Mans is usually held on Father's Day weekend, haha. It's also my free pass to watch the entire race 😋
We need the full race on TH-cam!
Edit: Thanks for all the helpful replies! I’m new to Le Mans so I don’t know the upload schedule yet.
They will upload it probably next weekend.
More like 3 weeks. But the full race, like the previous ones, will be uploaded very soon.
It is coming. They always post the full race replay a week or two after the event.
It will be. The last decade of full races are on TH-cam for free.
How many hours would that be???
Quelle course extraordinaire entre tous les dramas, les batailles, la pluie… On pouvait pas prédire qui allait gagner la course dans toute les catégories. Une course qui nous aura révélé sont lots de surprises du début à la fin, heureux d'avoir pu y être en personne pour voir cette course plus qu'incroyable. Merci a tous les organisateurs et participants pour cette course qui restera a jamais graver dans ma mémoire. 🔥😍🤩
One of the best races ive ever watched. Watched almost 19 of the 24 hours. Thank you.
Alpine and Engine failures are match made in hell 😂
their one year old WEC team seems better than their F1 shamble-factory already
France 🇫🇷 ☕️
Me and my two kiddos watched the entire race it was awesome.
haha here as well, i fell asleep briefly and watched 21 out of 24 hours, my son could not keep his eyes open around 2 o clock, and woke up around 9am.. pissed of course because he really wanted to see the cars race at night.. i was happy i could tell him he didnt miss alot because of the 5 hour safety car parade in torrential rainfall.
Next year will be bigger as well! 2024 24hrs Le Mans was indeed a banger!
Right? 8 or 9 competitive Hypercar marques instead of 4, plus a pair of NA V12s to listen to. 🎶
I'm proud to say that this was the longest I've ever watch Le Mans broadcast. minus 8 hrs of sleep, I've watched almost 16 hrs of coverage..
Thanks for 24/7 live!🏁
What a race it was! So many teams close to the win
This is a super well done video to digest the race!
I hope you can make an extended highlights of 30 to 60 minutes showing entire battles since this felt like crash highlights at times 😂
They will, it'll be out in about 10 days. Check out WEC Full Access, they do them for every race and most of it is behind the scenes footage. It's amazing.
This is just a get out the highlights video on race day production. In a week or two the All Access video will be a 45 minute production with a lot more content.
Make it 1440 minutes!
@@MarcKloos Please don't! I can't be awake for 27 hours straight again until next year. 😄
@@ragereset2795 Thanks! That sounds awesome 😁
watch about 14 hours of it this was amazing
I haven't seen a race this good since Larry Wilson and Michael Delaney held off Erich Stahler.
😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏F A N T A S T I C O
J'ai seulement regardé 10 heures mais les 10 heures valais le coup autant que le dénouement de la saison a Bahreïn!!!Quel course incroyable!!!
I was there (well, still) and it was magical. Who cares about the rain, it was so fun
Wow lucky 🎉🎉
*cries in Australian*
@andreshermans2068 I was still at the track, near parc ferme and I was going through every single video I could find
What a thrilling and awesome race! Le Mans 24h delivered again. I watched the entire 24h and it was totally worth it with Ferrari making it two wins in a row. Totally deserved victory after battling through such difficult conditions and it was just wonderful to see the emotions of the Ferrari drivers when Nielsen crossed the finish line. FORZA FERRARI!!! 🏆👏
I think the biggest winners were the Jota Sport #12. Building an entire new car in under 40 hours, getting very little shakedown running, to still finish the race in the top 10 and on the lead lap. Incredible stuff.
1 first place or nothing
Really hope they run the factory Caddy next year, though l don't envy them the liaison with GM executives if they do..
@@davidluna2163 Get a life
7:27 "Conntact between the number 51 car and number number eight in very wet
conditions early in the afternoon would result in a penalty for 51"
That's not really a fair representation of the incident. This was the critical moment of the whole race. You might also put it like this:
With 2 hours remaining the top 4 cars were separated by less than 30 seconds - Ferrari, Toyota, Ferrari, Toyota. The third place Ferrari took out the second place Toyota leaving the lead Ferrari to eventually take the win.
back to back Ferrari Le Mans victories? somebody call Ford 😂
I was at Le Mans, and WHAT A RACE !!! It was just incredible, so FORZA FERRARI !!!
i dont think i have seen this many cars drop out before and i watch the 24hrs every year. this year the track ate so many cars.
3:37 this is a joke, right?😂 Vanthoor just came out the pit on cold tyres and was being lapped by Robert, ignored blue flags, tried to push him onto the gt car, cut the chicane just to stay in front and keep blocking him, and finally it was him who caused the crash, you can see him turning slightly left just before contact. That' what you call "fast and clean?" lmaooo
Amazing race.
Epic race, tight and exciting to the end!
FUN FACT!
10 minutes 5 seconds is actually the same amount of time that this race wasn't under a perpetual safety car.
Honestly, it was a boring race with a huge segment just driving around to waste time.
@@truantray Fortunately I was able to sleep and miss absolutely nothing!
Wonderful Coletta. After the Wind in F1 with Schumacher he has won 2 Le Mans. Simply great. F1 team should learn from this team
Im surprised Ford didn't at least get a mention for getting to podium on the first year of the program in gt3 . In fact its Ferrari's first year in their new gt3 car and they were nowhere to be seen.
Good job ford.
Right, to win the 24h Nurburgring at the debut it's totally nonsense. WEC 296 GT3s have just poor drivers, except Daniel Serra.
@@gabrielegabriele8099Lol that was a year ago.
Qatar: 5th & 7th
Imola: 4th & 12th
Spa: 6th & 13th
Le Mans: 6th & dead last DNF
They haven't finished on the lead lap once this year. Blame the drivers if you want, fact is there's more competition and the 296 hasn't delivered.
@@ragereset2795 And those results what are supposed to demonstrate, if not what I told ? Exactly this, in the two teams 2 drivers out of 3 are poor.
296 GT3 wins in this year's 24 Daytona and some races in ADAC and GT world competitions. Then, it is maybe true that 296 is perhaps not at the peak of performances in terms of development. Ferrari does not put much focus on it, most likely due to resources routed mainly in the LMH project. Chances are that the development is not followed by the factory but by AF corse which has difficult in translating knowledge from the 488 GT3 world. I find hard to believe that the 296 is a flop, sharing nearly the same base engine with the 499P and having the availability of a careful planned aerodynamics.
Then, I would like to NOT say that 296 seems to be severely impacted by BoP, I don't want to start another flame discussion. That does not means that without BoP the 296 will win everywhere, of course, but maybe we could see an increase of performances.
Shit happens, look at Corvette. Also that M4 has been bullying the supercars considering its basically a saloon car. 3rd in the Championship by 30 points over 4th and just 2 points behind 1st and 2nd which are both Porsche's tied on 75 points. Porsche leading both Hypercars and the GT3 class.
@@gabrielegabriele8099 So you're saying Ferrari don't bother to nurture the 296 program? I sort of agree, but that's not a defence of them.
I agree the 296 isn't fully developed, and we'll definitely see it improve. But the fact remains it just got beat at Le Mans by a couple of Mustangs. The fact it won NBR24 a year ago makes it worse; the Mustang don't even exist a year ago.
Le Mans never disappoints as I love this track and endurance racing 🏁🏁
0:10 is this Zinedine Zidane?😅
I believe it is matey
Thank you for this video, fantastic race 👍❤️
5 second penalty for ruining #8's whole race is the biggest joke of this race !
👶🏻
Ferrari definitely gets special treatment always!
@@MMAli-rq8kdYes, that’s why they were forced to pit the #50 just to close the passenger door that was never going to break off. Clear favoritism for Ferrari…
@@BlueSkyCrystals That's a rule for safety reasons, if your driver can't manage to close the door you have to pit and fix it, it's applied to anyone not just ferrari🤦♂
@@BlueSkyCrystals Favorism is letting someone get away with breaking the rules like not getting a penalty for an unsafe release, or giving them a small penalty for an error that caused their opponent to lose their chance at winning the race.
The Grand Prix of Performance and Endurance, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Congratulations to the crew from Maranello.
07:24 The reason they don't use on-board cameras on 51 is because it's an inconvenient truth. With only a 5-second penalty they got 1st place!🤬🤬🤬
The 50 got first. Not the 51. But the no.8 Toyota had realistic chances to catch up with the no 50. more so than the no.7 that eventually took 2nd place.
Ferrari winning the Le Mans 24h back to back. That's absolutely fantastic achievement while racing against tough opponents. Fighting till the end and never giving up. Great job Ferrari! Let's go for it again next year!
now if they could just find their place in F1 again also.....
5 second penalty for ferrari 51 was rediculous for taking out what would possibly have been the race winning toyota 8 car. Same for the many unsafe release penalties.
Great race though.
The highlights deserves a 24 minutes of Le Mans
The best RACE of motorsport ❤
didn't ask
8:56 „our LMP3 winner“ Porsche 911 new LMP3 confirmed
Excellent job Toyota.
Congrats Ferrari.
Godspeed Gazoo heading for 6th title!!🎉🏁
THX for sharing from Asturias Spain
The craziest thing is that 329,000 people bought tickets at roughly $1500 - $2500 each which translates to roughly $500,000,000 dollars and drivers make fuck all 😂😂
That's shit tbh. Same in all sports though. If you're not someone everyone knows and wants you get nothing compared to your competition. And obviously the event holders make a bomb. That's tickets. But what about all the other things you buy and pay for when you're there. And at Le Man. Money is there to be spent and made though. So no one can be mad at any of it. Hope everyone had a good time
Explains why Toyota won 5 championships in a row.
Went over on the 6th , returned on the 17th had a great time.
Rejoined the ACO at the track to guarantee next years tickets .
8:25 imagine you’re that Gt3 car and you have to finish another lap, lol!
(I think that’s how it works right? )
8:21 - No the Ferrari broke the line first (the line is before where you think it is) and then eased off as he was down to 2% total energy
#50 did not have another full speed lap in it. If this wasn’t 🏁 he’d have to box for fuel 🙀
time was up, the race was over.
Really good highlights. A lot better than most highlights around racing!
These aren't even the proper highlights, they come out in a week. This is like a teaser.
This will fire up Gazoo Racing - bring on 2025.
At least with hydrogen combustion pushed back (yet) another year, Toyota can now build the GR060. 👌🏼
This video is riculous! I watched tge whole race on French TV, and was a huge amount of sensational wheel to wheel racing for the lead, throughout the race. Yet, here, in a supposed 'Race highlights', all we get are crashes and pit clips.
Very, VERY poor coverage compared with previous WEC race videos.
that 4 hr safety car killed the race for me.
Can we please get more coverage of the gt3 and lmp classes it's all we heard for radio broadcasts was the hypercar class
This highlight is a joke:
1. They mainly focused on hypercars, no LMP2 or LMGT3
2. They mainly focused on crashes, no overtake, no duel
Overall, it's too short for a 24h race
It was like that the whole race, GT3 and LMP2 barely got any TV coverage
That's because this is only a thrown-together-on-no-sleep teaser. Full Access and Race Review will be an hour each.
I agree the P2s got shafted, they always do and it's annoying. I think it's because the class is doomed to be quietly removed over the next few years. Can't complain about GT3 though; they're so new that nobody's really figured them out yet. It makes them almost impossible to BoP accurately, l kept an eye on them in timing and there wasn't much close racing. Next year will be miles better.
Really excited for the 24h of spa-Francorchamps
The best race of 2024. By far. Apart from the Daytona 24 Hours, the Sebring 12 Hours, and the Watkins Glen 6 Hour as well as the Bathurst 6 Hours.
Don't forget the Bathurst 12hr!
And 7 hour of Nordschleife!
@TleafarafaelT yes lucky 7.
@ragereset2795 Nope, the 12 Hours of Sebring, or the Sebring 12 Hours, the same thing.
I don't think Bathurst does a bad job at having a 12 hour race.
But Sebring really made the role it's own and anything else just doesn't feel quite right.
@@camerongreenwoodcrampakacgc. Sorry, but that's like saying tacos are better than hot dogs. There is no best.
can't wait for the full videos to come out
10 minute highlight!? surely you could've gotten more out of the race?
It will come.
We got shit to do 10 min is enough kid
Be patient. More will come.
The entire TH-cam is for ADD, so even 10 minutes is too long.
Bro the race just ended. Give them a few days
I feel like this race needs a whole lot more highlights.
guys I'm sorry, but you really gotta improve your game with these
It was such an amazing race, but the terrible tv direction just made it annoying and these highlights are just not enough for how much happened
I know people say it all the time, but you have to get on F1s level with the online quality of content
LMAO another F1 refugee who thinks this is the complete post-race package. 🤦🏻♂️
Full Access makes an absolute mockery of anything F1 does to cover their boring, predictable soap opera of a sport. 😅
F1 is a dead horse, WEC is just better in everything else
Cars (all of them in all different shapes and sizes, even applies to the GT3's)
Driver lineups (most of them are ex-F1, whereas Stroll has always had a seat since 2017 without showing any sort of merit)
tracks (most of the tracks that both series race on are the same (only exceptions being Fuji and Le Mans) but its more interesting in WEC than in F1)
F1 broadcasting is cool but their races are meh.
@ChinoKawaii1021 Oh sorry did you pay to much to watch it? 😢 Why don't YOU make the right kind of video then?
We need 60 min Full Access for this Le Mans 24hr 😍
Might be the best year yet
Nothing tops 2011, yet.
Gotta be between this one and last year.
@@ragereset2795 too many safety cars for too long. Hyper car field looks amazing but contenders are only like 6 cars.
@@nathanz.6769 You can't race at night in pouring rain because water gets thrown up and the headlights turn it white so you can't see. Get angry at Mother Nature if you like but it couldn't be helped. They did wait too long to restart once the sun was up, though.
Everything keeps changing
from decade to decade,
but not the used sight of a 24 hr car,
the mark of real combat
Story of Legends 9:24
It was a phenomenal race full of action twists and overtaking at all hours, and what do you do? Don't show any of this! Only the crashes! What badly done highlights! F There were incredible battles and monstrous overtaking! Show those!
They will. There'll be Full Access and Race Review, an hour each in about a week. You gotta let them get some sleep! 😄
How entitled are you? This was made handful of hours after the race ended and you expect it to be comprehensive? Editing takes a while, be patient ffs.
you guys had an eight min highlights for F1 Monaco and just a 10 min highlight for 24H LeMans??? Daymmm
1:38 ahhhhh classic Kvyat staying true to his word... I mean crashing
the torpedo strikes again
@@skykatkat Well thats racing XD
Tenth for a chassis that's new this year and has never been to Le Mans before against is an incredible result. Well, unless you're a 9yo boy. Maybe you are.
@@ragereset2795 most of the F1 fanbois know Kvyat for crashing, he's better than Perez in a Red Bull for sure
@@ragereset2795 true(well im 13 but idk lol)
Honestly kinda happy that Toytota and Ferrari seemed happier with each other this time around, possibly because there was less "direct" competition. Both teams should be proud :)
I HATE HOW THEY TOTALLY IGNORE GT3 IN COVERAGE EVEN HIGHLIGHTS!!! Wth is going on
That was a great race. Glad to see Ferrari there!
A fantastic performance by Ferrari!
Would like to see a more detailed highlight for each category, specially the LMGT3. Watched 14 hours of this year race, and it was emotional until the very end. Congratulations to Ferrari for the win in Hypercar, although I was cheering for Toyota I must admit. And in the LMGT3, a big cheers to Iron Dames for finishing at P5, I watched some good hours on their onboard camera on TH-cam! Great edition from this year's 24 hours of Le Mans! 😎
eduardo freitas really fought hard for this win and absolutely deserved it
Bro, that's the race director 💀
Fantastic Race (I'm personally pleased with Nielsen🇩🇰, who got the Ferrari 50 to the checkered flag 1st👏)
If you want more, then watch Steve McQueen in THE unforgettable Le Mans movie😊
Shame on: give the ferraris the penalties all other would had become, and toyota would win. Shame shame shame 1:12
Awesome race this year ❤❤❤
The all female crew for dames obviously doesn't include the pit crew.
Even if it did I'm sure you'd find something else to bitch about.
I can't wait the full race release!
Nobody's talking about how both the Lamborghini hypercars completed their debut race in one piece.
I wouldn't seek sensible comments on something like that in a TH-cam comments section, most of them are people bursting into tears because the Full Access video wasn't released while the drivers were still on the podium.
Phenomenal result for Lambo and Iron Lynx, the first four classified Le Mans finishes for that marque, all in a single race. The SC63 should improve quickly, as it races in IMSA endurance events as well as WEC. 👌🏼
They were never a factor in this race, much like Peugeot.
@@truantray It takes no factor to consider appreciating a newbie completing le mans while experienced veterans face with technical difficulties.
@@truantrayDo you appreciate LeMans at all? You constantly whine about the biggest element of LeMans itself: attrition. To win LeMans, you must first finish LeMans. That's a feat in of itself and why they'll come back next year to try to win. Stick to sprint races until then.
Great video. We'll done. Thanks.

What a lovely race this was
Still can‘t believe how they screwed Toyota. Gifted win for Ferrari. Unsafe release…No further action…what a fn joke
👶🏻
It's sad what they do to the team that stayed with them during the sport's darkest times. But hey its ferrari they got history and shit we can't penalize them!
meno male che hai anche il nome italiano, sembri di quelli esterofili fino al midollo, chiamandoti Marco non credo che tu sia austriaco o francese o giapponese !!!!!
Are you the one that has got 10k+ penalties, or maybe are you the one that win at Spa ? When Ferrari wins, all babies around the world start crying.
It wasn't an unsafe release, I swear, so many of you want these cars to be in bubblewrap and the penalties be under a complete microscope. The Ferrari was not in the fast lane, slowed down, and let the LMP2 past. Now, if the Ferrari passed the LMP2, then you could argue for unsafe release.
My first car was a race car a 1982 e528 BMW 5 speed and I think about that car and I miss it madly, in 2002.
Gutted for BMW
Especially the #46... Rossi was great in his stint
@@SPProduction02 yeah as an Omani I feel terrible for Harthy...
Not really a BMW fan. But they were doing pretty good.

Such a horrible, horrible Le Mans for WRT. At least an M4 got on the podium.
