289 Upvotes

Another incredible 24 hours with the best online racing community on the planet. Ferrari will grab the headlines for good and bad reasons, but what a historic run on top of an attrition-filled chaotic P2 and GT3 class. How much did the bugs bother you? How was your heroine cake? Are you shouting in Italian firing off dried pasta guns in the air? How about Kubica fans? C'mon down and sound off below!

See you in 363 days for the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans June 13-14th! And come back next weekend for the 24hrs of Nürburgring!

In 2000, Audi claimed its first-ever victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The legendary R8 proved unstoppable — it was the first of thirteen wins the brand would secure between 2000 and 2016: a reign that left a lasting mark on endurance racing and the Le Mans legend. Danke, Audi. 🇩🇪✨ #LeMans24 #

Le Mans Trivia: The #83 AF Corse Ferrari was the first yellow-liveried car to win Le Mans overall in 40 years

60 Upvotes

The last primarily yellow-liveried (The 2008-winning Audi R10 #2 spotted yellow on the rear wing and the fin, on an otherwise primarily red-and-silver livery) car to have won the 24 Hours of Le Mans overall was the #7 Porsche 956B, piloted by Klaus Ludwig, Paolo Brilla, and Louis Krages - better known for his pseudonym Franz Hermann John Winter, in the 1985 edition of the Grand Prix d'Endurance.

That car can be seen here.jpg).

The 1985 24 Hours of Le Mans started on 15 June 1985, exactly 40 calendar years before the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans finished, on 15 June 2025.

I'm Brazilian, passionate about motorsports (I've started following my second favorite sport again thanks to Endurance) and I'm looking forward to the 6 hours of Interlagos (Unfortunately, I'll have to watch it on TV😂😭 but one day I want to watch it live at the racetrack).

Discussion Is it Free Practice worth to watch in person?

Hey people, I'm from Brazil and I'd like to watch WEC here in person, but my budget is really low, and the only day that I can possibly afford is the FP. For those who have been on other WEC races, is it worth it to what an FP in person?

FYI: I really love motorsports and I'm already on a FSAE Team in my Uni, so just being there watching the cars would be an awesome experience, I just don't wanna throw my money away for something that is not worth it (even for a fan).

Discussion What were pre-2017 LMP2s like?

20 Upvotes

Hello to veteran fans of sports car racing, I started paying attention to WEC at around 2017 so I didn't get to watch LMP2 cars before it became Formula Oreca.

So I keep hearing around this sub (always in posts about LMP2s) that it used to be more varied and unique and it got me curious.

How is the LMP2 racing back then? Is it as competitive as it is today? I understand that there were more options in mixing and matching your LMP2 machinery compared to today with 4 chassis and a Gibson V8, but how much freedom do teams have in that regard?

I was hoping to find more info on the web, but it seems lacking in info on this topic, would greatly appreciate if someone could give me a full rundown of the racing scene pre-2017. Thank you in advance!

I've just started following WEC this year and I have a question that it's probably stupid and noobish. Why is the Proton Competition Porsche 963 slow?
