Anybody else looking forward to the race tomorrow? Normally I’d be following along on r/wec, but, well…
I’m a fan of motorsports. Le Mans is one of those classic races that I’ve been watching for a long time. It’s a new era for the top class with all of the manufacturers coming back. It lost a lot of it’s excitement in recent years. In fact I think there was only Toyota in LMP1 in 2020
Ah, Toyota’s long and cursed effort to take the overall win at Le Mans… I made this after their 2016 effort fell short at the literal last possible moment:
They’re on a roll right now, though – maybe they’ll get a chance to win it with other cars in the class this time!
I dont watch motorsports, and have never cared, but i kinda want to put it on in the background while i donstuff at home this weekend. Its one of those things i kinda wished i watched.
Have you ever looked or read other peoples interests and were like “Man, i kinda wish i was in to that” ?
Partially wet track for the start, this is going to be interesting…
edit: aaaaand one of the Cadillacs went into the barriers on the Mulsanne right on Lap 1. Good on Aitken for getting back to the pits, but that was a boneheaded move.
Three and half hours in, there’s been a heap of attrition already, and Race Control is forecasting more rain imminently. This may end up being one of the messier races in recent memory.
Oh dang, thanks for letting me know! Hype
Will certainly be watching, at intervals, throughout the 24hrs👍🏼
