      A good F1 race is much more exciting to watch than 24hrs, but a win in 24hrs is so much more rewarding, Im not a big fan of Porsche, but seeing them taken the win, and when the camera pointed to the garage, you truly feel happy for them even its not ur favorite team.

    I just loved how that Porsche 2 hunted down that first place, like a madman.
    Specially with Timo behind the wheel, you could feel the actual tension in my living room.
    The Pro class race was nerve wrecking as well,
    The Aston followed the Corvette around the last 30 min like if the Corvette had a magnet mounted in the rear.
    Felt kinda hollow they lost because of a puncture and locked break......
    When they had been driving that well.
    It really was an exciting last few hours,
    Unfortunately, I missed it all, but I was able to see the last 3 hours anyway,
    So im thankful for that.

      Jaikar Chatha What's funny is the Aston Martin couldn't even keep up with the Ford Gt if they hadn't forced Ford to lower it's turbo boost pressure and carry more weight. They also wouldn't have won without the help of junk on the race track causing the Corvette to have a flat on the last lap.

    • @jpm74
      @jpm74 7 років тому +2

      The Ford is really a cheater prototype car. It's not a homologated road car. Kind of goes against the entire spirit of the GT class. But since Aston and the rest of the manufacturers are better sportsmen than I would be, they gave Ford a waiver which is a huge competitive allowance.
      Ford is also a hundred billion dollar company with hundreds of thousands of employees and an R&D budget the equivalent to many countries' GNP. Aston has 1,500 employees and sells 3,000 hand built cars a year. So yeah...Ford's non-homologated cheater prototype should be faster.
      And if we just let the Fords of the racing world have their way in the GT class, it would be boring as hell...not be competitive...and become a monopoly.
      Ford knew the rules of the GT class when they started the program. If they want to compete in an unregulated class, they should race in LMP1.
      And btw, the Aston's pole time this year was faster than the Ford's pole time last year.

      Got to feel for Kobayashi too. Best in the qualy with record, he looked in his element and good for fighting for the win or podium least. Then the problem after safety car. These cars are not as reliable anymore, with all this push for modern tech.

    • @GeriatricFan1963
      @GeriatricFan1963 7 років тому +7

      True, but their problem happened early on and Toyota weren't denied on the final lap like they were last year. The #1 was taking it as easy as they could up front and the car still failed them.

      Eh, I think it's more complicated than that. If they stopped pushing for modern tech, I.E. Hybrid systems they'd barely be any faster than the LMP2's. If you stand still then you get beaten. However maybe you have a point as the rules for 2018 seem ridiculously complicated.

      Captain0711 Well, there was this situation with a driver, who looked like a track marshall. Kobayashi started but if he would not have stopped aß told by his team, there might be a crash with safety car. But the pitstop mode was disabled. He started again driving out of the pit, but without the ekectroengine. That caused the damage, because it was a situation that normally doesn't exist.

      HTM That's truly bad luck for Toyota. When I read that today I was feeling very bad because nobody deserves that something like this happens.

      Cycgnr Last year, they blew everyone away, so they decided to force them to lower their BHP and add weight to the car and it made it easier for the Aston Martin, Porsche 911 RSR, Corvette' and so on to beat them. Pretty pathetic if you ask me. Now that it's been proven that they can be beaten by handcuffing them, maybe they will allow them to have a little more horsepower and lighten the load to make it fair, but I doubt that they will do it.

    • @jaikarchatha1967

    • @mobregonjr
      @mobregonjr 7 років тому +3

      Cycgnr the LM GTE PRO cars are my favorite but I'm starting to feel like the series is ruined thanks to their attempt to level the playing field. The ford GT was dominating so much they decided to take away horsepower by lowering the boost and if that wasnt enough they added weight to the car. They basically tied the gt down just to give the other teams a shot. Its the reward the ford gt got for being so dominant.

    • @WarInHD

      Well they cut it's balls off pretty much because it was kicking everyone's ass so they wanted to make it "equal" which I think is shit... I thought the race was about who can make the fastest and most reliable car and to show off the car companies, not to make all the cars have the same performance and see who's the best driver. That's why we have Nascar

      Andy Harris C1 and C2 were equal in performance though. All the factory teams but Peugeot competed in C2, and C2 was the category that had won the previous 9 years. The simple difference between them was engines, not performance, they were equal categories.

Knowing you have 1/4 of the way in, have a long straight uphill in front of you plus another 6.7 miles and 4 long straights all 1 mile in length and you can't shift gears, just sitting there looking at the dash and the hill on the radio, saying "okay, how long do we have to go in this race?" Better yet - 4:11 - Porsche #2 says "See ya" and "I hope whatever bit you doesn't touch me, buckaroo" and "catch you in about 55 minutes" to Lotterer in Porsche #1.

      The Aston was faster, even on older tyres, so it would have been close. But the Corvette threw it all away by locking up at the 2nd Mulsanne chicane and going over the gravel.
      The Aston driver himself said, "... he had a big lock-up down the Mulsanne, into the second chicane, and then after that he was braking a lot earlier in some places."
      "Then at the final corner I could see his left-front tyre seem to start delaminating, and the key then was to be patient, wait until the exit, and get him there."

    • @LManonymous

      and the aston martin couple should have won, and they did. You can't just take 23 hours in the lead and win at le mans, you have to believe that you will only win if you deserve it.
