Thank you IMSA for providing the Race here on TH-cam. I love IMSA Races. Looking from Germany to support Mike Rockenfeller 🎉

Always enjoy having this to get me through my workday. Thank you IMSA!

[@W123KartSport]

0:58:15 Great bit of quick thinking while driving. Having to empty out a radiator of grass takes a ton of time on the pit speed limit. Why not use the alternate pit lane with no pit speed to do the same thing? Absolutely marvelous!

👍

I know Hindy is dialing in from the UK. Even though he's used to it, having the commentary team in multiple location does mean lot more talking over each other.

[@dannyjohnson1287]

When this was live I wasn't able to watch I always have to wait 4 days just to watch this

[@scramble7673]

Not to sound picky, but the entire track needs a lot of maintenance. Great racing coverage 🙏🏽

[@ruination34]

I was there and it was awesome!!

[@paulcorvus]

Thanks for the race! 👏

[@NBC_NCO]

Perhaps I missed it...
But what was the problem with the #3 Corvette? It's looking like it shut down several times.

[@IWATCHUSLEEP487]

Nooooo I’m so annoyed I missed the live of this when’s the next GT3 race or one with hypercars

Not my favorite IMSA race of this 2024 🥴🤕

[@RBot21]

DTM?

[@victormanuelplaza1227]

Categoría espectacular. Ojalá en mi país Argentina algún día podamos tener este tipo de autos en carreras. Ojalá no vuelvan mas los partidos de izquierda al poder de mi querido país.

[@buckbunner1359]

say what you want, but McLaren is the most reliable manufacture. Reliably makes poor vehicles.

[@Ariespradana13]

Why close livechat record??

[@deyeatdapoopoo7582]

McLaren being an unreliable heap first misfiring and then blowing an engine. Can you believe it? 😂
Good call by Pfaff to switch to the Ferrari 296.

[@markhunt7434]

Pfaff is still with mclaren its inception that's switching

[@AF-CORSE]

WHERES ALL THE LMP1 CARS?😭😢

[@theflagstand]
