Great race.

Close for most of it. The speed of the LMP1 cars was amazing throughout the race!

Great result!

Very impressive win.

Amazing marketing material too, hard to believe a 2L 4-pot turbo achieved that!

Congratulations also to Dempsey-Proton Racing for getting a Porsche onto the podium the the GT-Am class.
And of course to Corvette Racing for the class win in GT-Pro. Not a Porsche but the vette guys approach racing in the right way (IMHO) and I am always happy to see them succeed.

+1

Dempsey-Proton also ensured a 911 continues to win podium positions at Le Mans.


...some of the 991s seemed to catch fire overnight though evil

Must be using the same Con-rod bolt supplier as the production GT3!!! Slightly more relevant than the LMP1 achievements.
3 blow ups not a good day at the office.

A truly fabulous race. I watched about 16 hours. The whole thing in every category was 100% full on sprint. Proper racing.

It is mind blowing that all of the LMP1 cars from Porsche, Audi and Toyota made it to the finish!

For me, it is the best race in the world.
