Anybody else looking forward to the race tomorrow? Normally I’d be following along on r/wec, but, well…
I dont watch motorsports, and have never cared, but i kinda want to put it on in the background while i donstuff at home this weekend. Its one of those things i kinda wished i watched.
Have you ever looked or read other peoples interests and were like “Man, i kinda wish i was in to that” ?
I’m a fan of motorsports. Le Mans is one of those classic races that I’ve been watching for a long time. It’s a new era for the top class with all of the manufacturers coming back. It lost a lot of it’s excitement in recent years. In fact I think there was only Toyota in LMP1 in 2020
Ah, Toyota’s long and cursed effort to take the overall win at Le Mans… I made this after their 2016 effort fell short at the literal last possible moment:
They’re on a roll right now, though – maybe they’ll get a chance to win it with other cars in the class this time!
Partially wet track for the start, this is going to be interesting…
edit: aaaaand one of the Cadillacs went into the barriers on the Mulsanne right on Lap 1. Good on Aitken for getting back to the pits, but that was a boneheaded move.
Three and half hours in, there’s been a heap of attrition already, and Race Control is forecasting more rain imminently. This may end up being one of the messier races in recent memory.
