    Some important info about the 1955 Le Mans race, the Jaguar that caused the crash was driven by Mike Hawthorn (1958 F1 champion) who had a tendency of doing dangerous things on and off track (which ends in tragedy for him in the end), the teammate Pierre Levegh showed the hand-signal to behind him was none other than "El Maestro" Juan Manuel Fangio who always maintained, that last moment signal from Levegh saved his life otherwise he wouldn't have slowed down on the straight. Fangio was also teamed with the great Sir Stirling Moss in that race. John Fitch, Levegh's teammate was greatly affected by his passing, and devoted his time to improving safety in motorsport, road infrastructure, and automobiles.
    And an interesting fact about Pierre Levegh, he almost won the 1952 Le Mans single handedly driving a Talbot when he drove the whole race by himself, ending in the final hour when he suffered engine failure while he was leading by 4 laps.

      @WEC_Connoiseur Рік тому

      RIP Pierre Levegh tho. The devastation Fitch felt led Alfred Neubauer to withdraw Mercedes after Moss took the lead iirc
      Good thing he didn't let his ego get the best of him and humbled after.

    A strange thought I've had over the last 24 hours, prior to even watching this video. Imagine building a car, that changes everything. One car that is so influential that it inspires and draws others in. Be it from Hollywood, a race team, or even just a one-off builder like Magnus Walker and others. That's the dream right there as a car enthusiast. The ultimate goal. Build something you love, and for the love of building it, while accidentally changing perspective on things.

    I've always am a Porsche fan as I was a kid,who got to see the 917's in all their iterations my dad was a car nut and would take me to the Glen,Daytona, and Sebring, the years where 68, 69,70 and 71.
    But the red beast that I saw in a couple of sport mags that covered racing in Europe just blew a eight year old's mind, I thought how could a chunky clunky car be so competitive without knowing I became a Mercedes racing fan since the fall 71. Keep doing this format its great!!!!!!

    I stumbled onto your channel by chance. On that note, by chance, can you do an episode on the journey Hyundai has taken since the early 80's. I don't mean just the drastic change in quality and reputation, but also what led to milestones like the Tiburon, Genesis Coupé, "Taos" V8 engine, their recent "Theta" engine issues and subsequent redemption and their lastest "N" brand. In the opinion of many, Hyundai has become a forerunner in performance EVs along with I.C.E. vehicles like the Elantra N. I suppose having designers and engineers from the likes of Audi, Volkswagen, and BMW, to name a few, has really helped. Id love to see something outlining that interesting story a bit more in depth.
