Relive all the action from The Rolex 24 At Daytona, the first race of the 2021 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season and Round 1 of the IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup.
I am so glad they uploaded this. It is the only way I am able to enjoy the season for the past 3 years because of my work. thank you to all involved with this channel, it is very appreciated 😄
The BMW that was behind the Porsche got on the throttle a tad early, causing it to hit the Porsche and make it spin. Now I understand it. Also. Props to y'all, IMSA. Good job uploading these for those who can't watch it on TV. Cheers, lads.
@@taven2164 Look at the back of the Porsche after the replay. It's broken. So, Maybe somebody at the back of the Porsche is the car who make this collision.
What happened to this live? There was nothing on this channel until yesterday. I watched most of it on NBCSN! I would have preferred to watch here. IMSA radio a lot better than Lee Diffy! I can't stand that guy! I watched the qualifying race here and enjoyed it immensely! I have watched 24 hours at Daytona for many years and have liked how coverage has improved. There was about an hour on NBCSN that was nothing but blank screen. If I didn't already know who won then I would probably watch it here. I hope the racing is covered here this year. I missed a lot of it last year because I didn't know where to watch. Cable doesn't have a very good guide so I can record things and watch later. I don't watch commercials.
@@kennycorrigan3420 Thank you for that information. I watched some short videos of the testing and was hoping it would be live online. I will probably wait until the races are posted this year because I just can't handle the announcers NBCSN uses. Thanks again Kenny, I appreciate it.
@@Maenfy Thanks! I actually watched this channel last year when I found it had the races. I did not actually realize racing was happening until August last year. I had to go back and watch it here. I was a software engineer and really hate to be on a computer! I need to treat it as my entertainment device these days!
If you're in the USA, It's all on NBCSN, if you're international you can watch it on IMSA TV or listen on www.radiolemans.co/ regardless of the location. (RS2 is IMSA Radio)
The black BMW M8 actually etayed behind the Ferrari after that first race start incident which is somewhat surprising. Decent driver on that black M8 I suppose probably realizing that the red M8 was at fault and almost ruined the race for some cars specifically the Ferrari 488 GTE
Cant say im a fan of the p3s being in the field. Too many classes. I know GTLM is waning, which sucks, but still, we don't need 3 prototype classes in 1 series. Jmho.
11:45 Not even 2 minutes into a 24h-race and Hindaugh already manages to call a Porsche a Ferrari. Wasn't sure if I't hang around for the whole race, but you made it easy for me, John. Thanks, bye!
I don't know if you guys at IMSA Radio read this but will you please sort out your sound levels, two years now we have watched this and both times you are inaudible (12 hours to go mark and its hopeless) and as for the timing screens , why can't you talk to the guys who do the graphics and copy WEC, fastest lap times twelve hours in is pointless do intervals for every car, not first to last but to each car in front, that way we can see who is catching up etc. Is it too much to ask?
What a boring broadcast I mean 2 minutes in and the commentary went silent Well at least I didn't have to hear that jordee commentator John hindoff Oh and jonny parmer I turned off it after 3mins
Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback! You always have the option to skip the pre-race beauty shots where the commentators are not yet commentating.
RIDÍCULOS. UM BAITA EGOÍSMO DA PARTE DE VOCÊS. AQUI NO BRASIL NÃO TEMOS COMO ACOMPANHAR, NEM TODOS SABEM A LÍNGUA INGLESA. QUANDO APARECE ALGUÉM PARA COMPARTILHAR O TRABALHO DE VOCÊS, VOCÊS DÃO STRIKE. TOMA MEU DISLIKE
Man I agree! Too many commercials! One thing that's bugging me is how do you watch the IMSA live stream instead of NBC's coverage? I love John Hindaugh's commentary!
I always boot up Gran Turismo whenever there’s a 24 hr race to see how long I can last driving while the race is on. I’ve done all 24 hours once. I’ve not lasted even 16 since. I must’ve killed a ton of my life force when I did that......
what a light weight ...ive played Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for more than 24 hours many many times online killing everybody over and over ...hacked guns with no recoil yaw pitch or roll firing 30,000 rounds per minute dead on target looking like a big laser weapon with damage turned up from 100 max to 90,000 knocking avatars clear off the map as no one ever had a chance ! then I found the movement speed listed on every gun like a AK-47 was 1.0 .guess what happens when you change that number to 5 ? you can run 5 times faster than anyone else in the game so fast you dont even appear on their monitors until you stop ...like dirrectly in front of ssomeone and fire your dead hehehe
Been waiting eagerly for this. Thanks IMSA, lots of other racing series should learn a lesson from your approach to your fans. ( Yes WRC, I'm talking about you)
2nd time going to this race & 2nd year in a row, Last year i went back & fourth to the hotel this year i stayed the full 24hrs and stayed awake, this year was a trip but i was finally able to accomplish this challenge without sleep! Can't wait for next year! Going to Sebring since it's only a 8 mile drive for me! Watching this for the first time thanks for uploading this! 💚
@@billyfitzgerald834 I had no issues with going from the infield at 2am to the Grandstands and to IHOP across the street. I had the same worries too when I first went in 2020
@@zdoginterprise I live in Virginia so its a hike for me but i was down there this summer and did a tour of the track. It was a a really cool experience. Id love to catch the 500 and this race.
In my opinion John Hindhaugh is one of the best commentator who still commentating now, I think if this guy goes to commentator in F1, MotoGP, NASCAR, IndyCar and many others this guy get note 10, is absolute amazing, + Jeremy Shaw are the best combo 1-2 for commentating, also others IMSA commentators are incrdible, congrats🎉🎊👏!
If he's the main mouth, then I hope he goes, anywhere I don't have to listen to him. I was so hoping not to hear his terrible commentating again. He starts off, as usual, showing his prowess by proving he can't tell a Porche from a Ferrari, there, fanboy.
@@46wireboy To be fair that happens to all of them and us. To some extent I agree with your comment but there are far worse...... Mark Cole for instance, who is the Dr Hibbert of motor sport commentary, laughing at the most inappropriate and annoying time possible! PS.

@@imsaofficial great . i am from mosquito lagoon.... DONT PUT IT THERE EITHER 😁😁😁 actually i grew up in daytona and it is so great to be able to watch the races from there when i cannot get back..thanks
Last year right before covid was my 1st it was fkin amazing. We were one round off the ferris wheel with the fireworks at 10 but we still got on tv rutledge was in the car behind us doing a segment. Cooler dude in person than on tv
I always look forward to this race every year it kicks off the American racing season and just 2nd after the 24 hours of Dubai, racing is officially underway
I finally found the racing series that I always wanted to watch. Never knew where the race-car corvettes came from. The GT classes is what nascar should be with American cars.
I echo what John said salute to the pit crews the MARSHALLS they really are the unsung heroes and it's obvious why I think they should all get some little reward honestly anyways big hats off to them thanks guys 👍🏽🙏🏽❤
I appreciate the switch away from showing the classes on the scrolling ribbon at the botton; that information was redundant due to the color-coded number panels. However, I still think there's room for improvement. With multi-class racing, it only takes a few laps for every car outside the DPi class to be listed in terms of laps down, which make that information less useful for keeping track of the battles. It would be better to list each car's gap to its respective class leader or simply show the intervals between every car.
Nothing like adrenaline going through your veins, a mindset for fast car's in the past.😮 You should come to Grand Prix in Melbourne Victoria March each year. Great race .
Just like always the #9,#11 and #4 don’t have to have fresher tires to be just as fast, Jeff and Clint and Mike was talking about a 12 seconds fall off at the first caution and Ryan’s tires was what five better tires, fake racing as always in the Clash.
I am a Corvette fan, but seeing that #79 Porsche go out so early just makes me sad :( When Porsche is running in GTE/GTLM, they've always got an amazing team that makes for great racing. Hell, it's horrid to see any team go out so early in a 24 Hour race. It just takes great racers out of the race :/
I don't know what was in BMW driver mind ? Even if you had a good start, but you know that you still can't overtaking before the start/finish line That's one was a bloody nasty drive
Your broadcasters are terrible! The nonstop stuttering by both makes it so difficult to follow what they’re talking about...do they even know what they’re saying? Shea Adams is twice the reporter of those knuckleheads. She speaks clearly and precise. The other guys need speech lessons.
As For Being A Proud Cadillac Fan & Owner Of A CTS Myself ... It Makes Me Proud Seeing A Cadillac DP Coming To The Finish Line P1 And Getting That Checkered Flag And 🏆 & 💰
The night racing is what got me into endurance racing and my favorite part by far is watching the break discs glowing red hot under heavy breaking.
