Where to even start? The centenary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans was the race of a lifetime. It did not disappoint with an incredibly unpredictable scenario until the final minutes and a fight between Ferrari and Toyota, which will be remembered as one of the most exciting duels to have happened at the world's biggest endurance race.
In collaboration with Motul, the WEC Full Access series is back with a full in-depth episode dedicated to the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans. The best moments of the race complemented with exclusive behind-the-scenes images will put you once again at the heart of the action!
The FIA World Endurance Championship is the world’s premier international sportscar championship, contested over seven rounds across North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East. With multiple cars across three categories (Hypercar, LMP2 and LMGTE Am) all on track at the same time, the WEC is a sports car extravaganza that offers action, overtakes, excitement and entertainment for fans worldwide.

@theabyssaldemon 11 ай бұрын

Same. I remember being so freaking angry when he messed up. And I spotted Tom talking to Rye during the ceremony after the race and didn't think much of it, I honestly thought he was just congratulating him for second, I didn't realize it was so much more. Between the word of Ant and Tom, I've been left with a way different perspective than before. I'm just heartbroken for Ryu and the team, but he did leave it out on the track, took the necessary risks, and did everything he could out of that moment. Tom knew, saw that, and could speak to it. I think it just makes a world of difference when you hear these words of encouragement come out of someone who knows what it takes to beat Le Mans' mouth.

That was a brilliant Le Mans, it livered up to the hype (pardon the pun), but has to be the best closest racing in decades. I watched most of the race from inside the 51 Ferrari cockpit with their live feed, apart from it landing up in the gravel at the first chicane on the Mulsanne in the night, the car never put a foot wrong, it worked like clockwork, even when it failed to restart on two of the pit stops there was no panic, Pier Guidi was calm as anything in the cockpit in the last pit stop, going through the restart procedures. Fabulous.

Yes, I agree with Davidson: Toyota probably gained more supporter this year than in the past. They fought until the last second. And it's not over yet.

I strongly suspect there is data that shows that any video over 45 minutes on KZfaq causes a reaction among viewers to not click and open.

My mom ALWAYS knew I was hype for Le Mans and it was my favorite race of the entire year she'd never watch all of it with me but she'd watch some of it she knew Audi or Toyota would win in years past and she only had to watch 4 hours of the race. 😂 Unfortunately she passed away the week of Christmas so personally Le Mans hit different this year and I wasn't as hyped for it on top of what else has been going on in my personal life. HOWEVER, I still enjoyed the race it was incredible lots of great action throughout I just wish I could've been more invested in it. Next year will be different and I'm looking forward to it. ❤

I see so many people say that WEC is boring and that they need to just run 3 separate races instead of doing all three classes at once. That'd ruin the excitement though. there's never a dull moment in the WEC BECAUSE of the three classes battling jt out at all times, whether it be 6 hours or 24 hours. There might be downtime, but that's typically filled in with balls-to-the-wall laps that showcase just how intense these races are. As Louise Beckett said, there's highs and lows to these races, especially Le Mans. But it's never quite boring if you just look beyond Hypercar.
