Le Mans is so cruel. Look at that WRT car. Just like Toyota some years back. Damn, how much that will hurt.

Some great performances there.

Toyota, all the Hypercars, WRT, Hedman et al, Ferrari, Corvette, and the ones I've missed.

At least WRT have their deserved victory.

guess frijns didn't see him to the very end since he was focusing on dodging slower gte to win his class, that was insanely dangerous anyhow... just wave the flag from the wall from next year

Great race. Really missed being there this year. Hopefully things will clear up and we can all get together in person next year.

Another last lap DNF. Gutted for the #41.
Finally, #7 wins Le Mans. Luck is finally on their side. Congrats to Ferrari and AF Corse for sweeping the GTE classes. Hats off to WRT too for their performance, really sad how they got denied a 1-2 like that.

Congrats to all the winners. Well done.


And congrats to all who finished, as it's an achievement in itself.

btw without some unnecessary fcy/slow zones and without the lmp2 carnage in the early night, I think toyota was going to finish the race very close to the 397 laps record.

Yeah, that could have been tragic so easily. Hopefully a wake-up call.

The drivers don't run to their cars anymore for a good reason, this should go the same way.

Would of put a complete downer on the weekend had that bloke been hit and sent up in the air towards the Bugatti circuit, also makes a complete mockery of all the other rules when somebody is stood in the middle of a live race circuit.

No surprise they haven’t shown a replay of it either

Real shame for the #41 but happy to see the #7 crew finally get their victory.

Not as many battles on track as we've seen in other editions but great last hour. And the good news, less than 10 months until the next edition
