UNBELIEVABLE, TEAM FORD WAS DISQUALIFIED. FOR HAVING TOO MUCH FUEL IN THE TANK! HOW MUCH, IS TOO MUCH? ABOUT (8) OUNCES OF FUEL, OVER THE LIMIT, SO TEAM FORD WAS DISQUALIFIED. UNBELIEVABLE. THAT MUCH CAN BE IN THE THROAT OR THE LINES ONLY.
Engineers and rule makers. Once you create something truly amazing, you get penalized for it. I dont think i can find words to describe my hatred towards that mentality and it doesn't take a genius to figure out what that does to racing and the industry.
@@nickvenzun2058 Let me give you a press release quote: "Five major objectives provided the guidelines for the discussions between the ACO, the FIA and the manufacturers: [...] - Level playing field in terms of performance [...] " If we translate this to athletes, that is the equivalent of cutting away the legs of a long distance runner because he's just better than the rest. Do you think thats fair? Racing was a sport meant to seek limits of human and machine. I understand that sometimes you may want to branch away, laying more emphasis on the human element (formula) for entertainment sake. But, what about the machine?
LOOKING FORWARD TO 2020 CORVETTES!! 2020 WILL HAVE REAR ENGINES, MID ENGINE CORVETTE. GM FINALLY DID IT!! SUPERCAR, ALUMINUM FRAME. 0-60 IN 3 SECONDS DUE TO DUAL CLUTCH GEARBOX. AND BASE PRICE 60K !!!!
I loved the GTE battle this year :)
very well, that's right! Me too.
48:48 F for car no. 49.
Am I daft, or is Zak Brown one of the commentators? he sounds so much like him.
Did Robin Miller help with the radio broadcast of this year's race?
I wonder of Patrick Dempsey raced at Leman
Yes, he has raced the 24h of LeMans 4 times.

AussieKopite He is obviously angry.
nick, rules are rules and if you are over the limit, then its over the limit. it doesnt matter how much or less you are above..
...why does Le Mans need Chicanes...it's like the Autobahn with turns...

The Toyotas are ugly. Where are the Audis? I'll look forward to Goodwood and the next Classic LeMans.
Don Cankook Audi left LMP1 at the end of 2016, due to a diesel programme no longer being viable under the Dieselgate scandal.
I like the look of the Toyota's. Performance is beautiful.

Still they win, and they ain't ugly. Looking forward to their third in a row!
