Already paid my €9,99 for the live streaming - although I think it's going to be running in the background this year as I've got some new toys to play with.
Radio Le Mans is livestreaming from their booth for the race on this channel. I am one of those who mute my TV and rather listen to these guys during the race, it seems like they are catching up on a lot more than the norwegian commentators do
And what is your job sir? "I am Car Wiper #3." And what does that entail? "I wipe the car, I wipe the car, I wipe the car. Someday I hope to get promoted to Window Wiper #2."
I wish the Hypercar and LMGTE Pro categories had more entries. The real races will be in LMP2 and LMGTE Am. Although I don't understand the difference between "Pro" and "Am", since there are plenty of professional drivers in LMGTE Am...
Anyway, it's still a great race for me, because I discovered it in the Michel Vaillant comic books when I was a kid and it has always fascinated me ever since. Plus, it's the only reason I still have rFactor 2 on my computer. This is one of my favorite tracks for hot lapping.
Driving out the Aston Martin DBR1-300 first time in PC2 in 2020 I recalled this vid in my memory, having watched it years before in a loop. The DBR1-300 of which I've used in 2020 and 2021 as my Le Mans real weekend sim preparation of a 24hr-in-2hrs mixed class Vintage GTC + Vintage Prototype B + Vintage GTA mixed weather + day/night event with great joy, to replace my previous preparation of mixed mod GTR2 and rF1 Le Mans events of additional racing time. If only PC2 had this Jaguar D-type in the rooster (or better: AMS2).
Pretty sure the vid have been available before this YT upload in 2017?
In Canada, I'd suggest paying for a month of Motortrend On Demand is worth the cost of entry to watch Le Mans. There's probably also a free trial for a month. I did that last year.
When Le Mans is over there's actually great content like Clarkson-era Top Gear (all seasons), and new Top Gear, and some Haggerty shows I like such as Head 2 Head and Ignition.
They also have some hard to find live races like V8 Supercars from Australia, lots of GT, Superbikes. Really actually impressive.
Some interesting things to see in the midfield:
- Wishing a great race to Estre, deserved after the Grello's incident at 24h Nurburgring this year;
- Curious to see Simgrid's coach Dave behind the wheel;
- Some F1 veterans gems, specially Kubica and Fisichela;
- Finally after getting more time taming the RSR, Fassbender will make it to LeMans;
It might be a good one!
I find the idea and history of Le Mans more interesting that its current form. I'm kind of stuck in the past before chicanes and 'hyper'cars. Regular cars will do me.
