    To clarify, hybrid car electric motors do not add performance; they only increase fuel efficiency.

    • @FriendlyCroock
      @FriendlyCroock 7 місяців тому

      Yes! GT racing is the best in sports car racing. For me personally is thanks to the variety in cars.
      I don't need LMP racers for variety when I have Aquila CR1 GT3 in Special Saloon Cars Denmark or the KTM X BOW GT2 in SRO GT2 or the Pagani Zonda GR in the ESET Cup Series.
      GT race cars have different shapes from manufacturer to manufacturer. That's my favorite thing about them.
      For most people it's the close wheel to wheel racing because GT cars are solid and made equal with BOP.

    what happens when a GT class covers more distance than an LMP1? also if its about who covered the most distance why do we need a finish line?
    btw awesome video I loved it!

    • @bartsimho1192
      @bartsimho1192 Рік тому +11

      If a GT car covers more distance they finish ahead in the overall standings and the winner of the race is who has the most distance. The Finish Line is as it's pretty much 24 hours + finishing the lap you are on (It also acts as the start line and defines where the pit lane can be)

    • @urbanonwheels
      @urbanonwheels  Рік тому +4

      Yeah Bartsimho explained it well! Thank you bro 🙏

    • @FriendlyCroock
      @FriendlyCroock Рік тому +4

      It used to happen back in the late 90s when the GT1 class became for a short period of time the fastest class at le mans.
      With that being said at that time GT1 cars did look more like prototypes than GT cars.

    As a fan of Le Mans for 7 years, pretty spot on - just to note though, the LMP1 class has been replaced with Hypercar class, and the GTE classes are in the process of being replaced by GT3 (from 2024 onwards) :)

    Excuse my ignorance, but are you pronouncing Le Mans correctly? Or have you used English pronounciation because youre speaking English? Is it pronounce "Le Mans" or Le Mon"?

    • @urbanonwheels
      @urbanonwheels  Рік тому +2

      Hey I actually wasn't even thinking how I pronounce it, it's probably an english version that I heard most often. But I have no idea what the correct pronunciation is 🤷‍♂️ Le Mon sounds legit tho 😆

  • @KAMiKAZOW
    @KAMiKAZOW 11 місяців тому

    LMP1 was already dead for two Le Mans races when the video was recorded. Not a very useful video building up to the 2023 race. Watch Formula Josh or similar UA-camrs for actually informative videos about that topic.
