Gio is a veeeery good driver. Getting a pole on his first try (he did got a penalty but still) and all the praise he got from the Ferrari drivers during his stint as a Sim Driver for the F1 team kinda explains why he is in the car with Pier Guidi and James.
Those who REALLY know how to follow motorsport know that Sauber clearly sabotaged him in his final F1 season. Everytime he was outperforming Kimi (It was frequent) he would get screwed by the team in some kind of way. I am a huge F1 fan but unfortunately no motorsport category is as politically polluted as F1. Sabotages are a thing there and Antonio was just one of the many victims
@@markokozicNo, Mick just wasn’t there mentally with Haas. Made a lot of mistakes and I absolutely understand that the Haas was a shitbag of a car, but he didn’t show what he needed, especially to Gunther. Mick just fucked up imp.
This is such a great way to bring WEC alive, it can be hard to follow without putting in a lot of effort but turning it into a narrative like this with onboard footage really brings you into the action. Would love to see a preview for Le Mans and definitely a post-race recap like this
Coming here to say that I was GLUED to the screen the entire 16 minutes. PLEASE keep doing this format consistently and you WILL get a massive following. Nobody else does this for endurance racing. I haven't followed it personally because it is hard to follow, the races are long, and often I'm busy. Race recaps don't bring the magic like this does. Keep bringing the magic :)
These commentaries of showing a primary team POV with your choice of what to explain what's going on with the cars he's against at each point is fantastic.
The 499P is really a fast car, unfortunatly this alone isn't enough to win a 24h race, and AF Corse showed showed some weaknesses in the management of the race. However, I am happy because the car has a lot of potential.
I got this video on my recommended feed, and subscribed! Great analysis. I was there too, and watching the outlaps of the Ferraris was pure pain. Sad to see Toyota running with the W basically uncontested, but hoping to see a good fight in Le Mans after the BoP (and tyre warmers).
Loving the commentary on your vids. This is what is so hard to find when the races are so long and not always broadcast everywhere. Appreciate your edits and efforts to comment on all the action! Keep it up!
This was an outstanding review of this race. Great editing to tell a story of Ferrari being Ferrari. I’ve never watched this race series, but now I’m interested. Of course, Spa helps. Giovinazzi had his hands full with those tires. F1 is going to have a tough time adopting tires without blankets, based on how these cars struggled.
This is not only very a informative and well narrated analysis, but is also really good to get people into this kind of racing. A lot of sportscar racing centered channels, while great, seem to be stuck in Group C/GT1 nostalgia. Glad to see someone is telling the stories that are happening now, doing justice to these cars that will eventually become iconic and getting people to know the drivers behind the wheel. Nice job!
Absolutely loving your retrospective commentary on these races. Even if I watched the race already, you provide a great summary from a particular car's perspective thats impossible to appreciate live - please never stop!
I watched all your iracing gr86 track guide videos last season, and i really appreciate the video where you analyzed your own race at tsukuba. Really happy to see more analysis videos like this. These videos have been a great way for me to get into endurance racing!
Really good commentary, this was better than half the highlights i've seen! Nice to see an American taking an interest in the best racing that only takes part in Europe!
First time watching endurance racing and your commentary made me wanna watch more! That was exciting! Was watching some F1 races and your video popped in the suggestions, glad I clicked. No I want to get into understanding endurance racing.
Great work man i would watch any race you would make comments on. GT3 GT4 WEC keep it up. I watched the other videos until the end as well you are good at what you do
Peak racing content! Thank you so much for getting us up to speed on what's happening! Your commentary is very insightful and the passion is clearly felt
I was at the race ... Two things ... I'm a massive F1 fan, but WEC offers an excellent fan experience. Pit walk, access to every grandstand, etc. The different categories on track. It's awesome. It's so much fun. I can't recommend attending one of these races enough. And trust me, the level of professionalism (I know one of the drivers) is top-notch (not just drivers but also the teams, etc). Secondly, I agree with the request of a few teams in regards to the tire warmers. The pace difference when a car exits the pitlane is a little too steep and dangerous. I wanted to go to Le Mans for one of the training sessions, but can't make it ... However, I SOOOOO look forward to the race. I haven't looked forward to it like this in ... many many years. Lastly, this channel is awesome and you have a bright future ahead of you, as part of the sport.
Thank you for your video! I'm F1 fan and I didn't familiar with WEC, so It is so useful to enjoy this year of 24H Lemans. Thanks for your great video again. And keep it up!
First time seeing one of your videos and channel and just want to say that the commentary is excellent and exciting. It makes for a really fun recap for someone that missed the race. Definitely looking forward to the next one!
video popped up on my recommended and this is awesome content. Its hard to follow WEC due to the lack of coverage but you did an awesome job. Keep up the solid content, excited for tmrw with Ferrari on pole
Thankyou for this awesome content. It turns ae endurance race which is tricky to find the time to watch completely for some, into a digestible story line, while really putting how interesting that race was. Perfect on boards, especially the wet tyre pitsop footage. Now i can check into LeMans knowing that the Pug has tyres that are too small and a concept that isnt quite working (reminds me of Nissan), and that Toyota is still in their untouchable era.
I agree with one of the other commenters who pointed out the incredible level of engagement you bring to the spectator's experience. I have been binge watching your videos and I believe there is no comparison with the usual way of watching a race. I think you could take any previously broadcast race and have the same affect, if you could get your hands on the in-car video... Just thinking of the great hill vs Shumaker F1 races or any of the hundreds of old rivalries... I don't know how you get all the in-car video now or if it is just what was broadcast or what but you should think about that... If you haven't already, that is... oh I'm gonna feel dumb if this is something you have already done... Lol
I still think the front of Ferrari relies a bit too much on raw tire grip to turn. Could've use a bit more rear to rotate, or else front overheats and understeers
I was there watching the race from the side of the track as track marshal at the entry of pif paf on the right and those LmH cars are incredible to see can't wait to see le mans
I’ve always been a huge fan of Gio. It’s unfortunate that Italian Jesus didnt extend his contract from Alfa or get picked up by scuderia ferrari but now I know, he was needed here in Spa
@@ludvig7473 I liked him cuz he was consistent and didn’t crash as much. Didn’t get many points but he and Kimi had a great run together with that backfield alfa. He’s gonna accomplish more things in motor sports. Mark my words.
Amazing video, looking forward to your coverage of LeMans and finding out who the big winners will be! Might I ask where did you obtain this footage? I've never seen onboard footage like this that spanned the whole race, without any TV graphics and commentary.
Giovinazzi impressing the hell outta me, was unsure how i felt after his Formula E stint but im really loving what im seeing
Gio is a veeeery good driver. Getting a pole on his first try (he did got a penalty but still) and all the praise he got from the Ferrari drivers during his stint as a Sim Driver for the F1 team kinda explains why he is in the car with Pier Guidi and James.
I imagine he didn’t have the passion for formula E like he did in f1 and as he does for Wec
Those who REALLY know how to follow motorsport know that Sauber clearly sabotaged him in his final F1 season. Everytime he was outperforming Kimi (It was frequent) he would get screwed by the team in some kind of way. I am a huge F1 fan but unfortunately no motorsport category is as politically polluted as F1. Sabotages are a thing there and Antonio was just one of the many victims
@@giuseppemaggio5894 im 100% with you on all of your points my good sir. Question if you please, do you think that Mick had a similar situation in F1?
@@markokozicNo, Mick just wasn’t there mentally with Haas. Made a lot of mistakes and I absolutely understand that the Haas was a shitbag of a car, but he didn’t show what he needed, especially to Gunther. Mick just fucked up imp.

They Did It
Le Mans Champions
Fast-forward to today yes car number 51 truly hold their nerve and got them the lemans win

I second this. I watched the Kevin Estre vid and came straight here. These are good!
YES EXACTLY!!!
Ferrari at Le Mans is like old days, fantastic Ferrari.
This aged well
Writing was on the wall..Ferrari were quick and destained for Lemans glory great Vid!!
Forza Ferrari 💪
These commentaries of showing a primary team POV with your choice of what to explain what's going on with the cars he's against at each point is fantastic.
really glad to hear you are enjoying them! it was a fantastic year of endurance racing!
Loving these videos! I don't have time fo follow the whole WEC but these are such nice summary stories from the races.
Exactly mate
The 499P is really a fast car, unfortunatly this alone isn't enough to win a 24h race, and AF Corse showed showed some weaknesses in the management of the race.
However, I am happy because the car has a lot of potential.
AF Corse are absolute winners in endurance racing, just a different class with a super potent car.
wel well well i would say they managed everything perfectly
well
N they ended up winning
good news, they won
Your content really stands out I enjoy every second of it .... Great work 👏
Thanks, I really appreciate it!
I got this video on my recommended feed, and subscribed! Great analysis. I was there too, and watching the outlaps of the Ferraris was pure pain. Sad to see Toyota running with the W basically uncontested, but hoping to see a good fight in Le Mans after the BoP (and tyre warmers).
Tire warmers should definitely bring ferrari into the fight. Le Mans will be epic. I think Porsche and Cadillac will put up a strong fight too.
WAITING FOR THIS FANTASTIC job about the victory of Ferrari in Le Mans !
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Best race comments ever. You really help us to understand whats happening. Will follow you from now on.

Brilliant video, thank you for taking the time to make it. FORZA FERRARI!!!!!
Absolutely loving your retrospective commentary on these races. Even if I watched the race already, you provide a great summary from a particular car's perspective thats impossible to appreciate live - please never stop!
That was beautiful man. Thanks a lot, I really enjoyed that, all of it, commentary and all.
I've totally enjoyed this video, it's like highlights that come alive by the Amazing story of the race
This video is one of the reason I became interested in WEC. F1 Ferrari fan here. 😭
Great video once again, tire warmers are back for Le Mans so that will be interesting. I will be watching the race trackside hahaha
ahh, have fun man, thats going to be incredible!
It's stupid for the FIA to ban tire warmers just on safety reasons alone tire warmers should come back.
@@rickjohnson2859 They are coming back for Le Mans only, because of safety reasons
@@rickjohnson2859 But I agree they should ban tire warmers, IMSA have done this for years so why can't WEC
After watching a few of your videos about hypercars and fell in love with them! Great talk!
I watched all your iracing gr86 track guide videos last season, and i really appreciate the video where you analyzed your own race at tsukuba. Really happy to see more analysis videos like this. These videos have been a great way for me to get into endurance racing!
Very nice way to explain the race. Congratulations!
First video of yours I’ve seen and it bangs, definitely using you as my highlights channel from now on
Really good commentary, this was better than half the highlights i've seen! Nice to see an American taking an interest in the best racing that only takes part in Europe!
What a beautiful video… nice way to tell a comeback
Great blow-by-blow account of a gutsy performance.
Just found your channel through the grello porsche video. Your content is amazing !
Same here! Love the commentary!
thanks! glad you're enjoying!
First time watching endurance racing and your commentary made me wanna watch more! That was exciting! Was watching some F1 races and your video popped in the suggestions, glad I clicked. No I want to get into understanding endurance racing.
Love the circuit and your presentation.
Thanks for the summary. I don't watch WEC cos the races are long but you Summarised that race brilliantly. Thanks
Great work man i would watch any race you would make comments on. GT3 GT4 WEC keep it up. I watched the other videos until the end as well you are good at what you do
Peak racing content! Thank you so much for getting us up to speed on what's happening! Your commentary is very insightful and the passion is clearly felt
Really good narration of the whole race.
Great work here - thanks Slick!
Please, don't stop with this series, just perfect
not allowing tired warmers wasn't a good decision. awesome narration by the way!
Great, knowledgeable commentary! I really enjoyed that.
Glad you enjoyed!

Awesome narration! you’re onto something special with this format. It’s great to see a race through the onboard perspectives of a single team.
Thanks !!! Lemans does the trick !!
This awesome commentary bro! You're painting a better picture of the race at the front than the official highlights.
Thank you for your video! I'm F1 fan and I didn't familiar with WEC, so It is so useful to enjoy this year of 24H Lemans. Thanks for your great video again. And keep it up!
keep on the great work man. can't wait for this year's le mans and your narration of it
so hyped for LM!

thanks and really glad you enjoyed! I’ve definitely considered it and would love to. it’s just really hard to get the footage
Excellent video, thanks
I still think the front of Ferrari relies a bit too much on raw tire grip to turn. Could've use a bit more rear to rotate, or else front overheats and understeers
And front downforce or front under suction.
Thank you so much for bringing this incredibly detailed analysis and telling the story of this race. Really helps to put it all in context 📖
In a strange way Ferrari is the underdog of this season's WEC. The old boxer has come out of retirement to fight again
always a good day when a new video is posted.
That video was fire, superb comentating
this video popped into my recommended feed. best recommendation ever, loved the vid. subbed
GRANDE GARA, GRANDE LABORO!!!!
#FORZAFERRARI
Thanks man! great narration
Peugeot = "per-zhow" not "poo-zhow" 😂
It's really hard to follow WED in Australia, videos like yours make it exciting!
Love your narration ❤
Absolutely sensational recap of a great race. Looking forward to more of these.
We are waiting patiently for Le Mans recap
Amazing content. Really impressive how you find the exciting narratives in these races. Keep it coming.
Thanks mark!
Great videos great videos! keep up the very very good work
Great video and commentary! Thank you and keep up the good work! Looking forward to your future videos.
Really great job with this video🏎️🏁 I am so hyped for le mans🎉🏁
Ty so much for you content!!! Love it!!!!
What a fantastic video !
Excellent commentary
Thank you!
I was there watching the race from the side of the track as track marshal at the entry of pif paf on the right and those LmH cars are incredible to see can't wait to see le mans
Ah, thanks for marshaling!
Excellent race, excellent commentary and excellent voice. Congrats!
Keep covering Ferrari!
Just discovered you, instant subscribe. You bring so much sense to endurance races... often hard to follow since they are super long.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Really cool video dude! Time to go watch your whole back catalogue...
I love those Videos. It gave me literally goosebumbs :D
Please carry on^^ What you show is why I love Motorsports
This was a great race breakdown!
Toyota really doesn’t mess about when it comes to racing in the prototype era.
That wingless Poo-Joe looks badass
Great commentary
No tire warmers. Music to my ears.
loved your commentary
I’ve always been a huge fan of Gio. It’s unfortunate that Italian Jesus didnt extend his contract from Alfa or get picked up by scuderia ferrari but now I know, he was needed here in Spa
Picked up by Ferrari??? Are you joking? He was one of the worse drivers on the grid, he wouldve been lucky to stay in Alfa
Hahaha! Jokes on you. He’s a Champion 😝
@@DaleDriven doesnt change the fact that he failed in both F1 and FE. Driver talent in Le Mans isnt even close to F1 level
@@ludvig7473 I liked him cuz he was consistent and didn’t crash as much. Didn’t get many points but he and Kimi had a great run together with that backfield alfa. He’s gonna accomplish more things in motor sports. Mark my words.
You’re about to blow up man. Love your content!
Amazing race for those Ferrari, i hope to see some sort of comeback even at le mans... hype i over9000
so much hype! haha
absolutely loving this channel. only found recently. keep it up man
Thanks for the support, really appreciate it!

ferrari and toyota gazoo racing stream the full races on their youtube channels
Excellent video, thanks a lot!
Perfect 👌🏽
Good videos - it was recommended to me by YT and they are quite well done.
damn the thumbnail alone, they look like those japanese Tamiya's modle car race tracks
Great run for Ferrari some really hairum scarum moves there.😎
Great vedio. Better than WEC channel.
Very kind, thank you!
