Toyota's efforts to win on merit instead of by default continue to be cursed for no readily-apparent reason...

Really good race overall, and portends well for the future of LMH/LMdH as a category. A different manufacturer on each step of the podium, even Peugeot was legitimately leading for a while, and the Caddies were in the hunt the whole way through, in spite of the being in the more restricted LMdH ruleset. Porsche still seems to have some teething problems to work through.

Looking forward to next year, with BMW, Alpine, and Lamborghini in the Hypercar category, and more accessible GT3 cars for GT!

Yeah, it really feels like we're about to enter a new golden age of WEC!

I managed to watch 19 hours and have no regrets. Was a fantastic race throughout. Shame that Toyota binned it near the end but the rari fully deserved that win

I was nice to see Ferrari do something well for a change.

Yeah, though watching Leclerc watch Porsche go off at Arnage and seal the win for Ferrari was a little sad

Is there a link? I'd love to watch that

Really ready good race in the early parts. I'm a bit unhappy that Porsche didn't win (or even keep a car on the lead lap) but it's been a great first le mans for the reinvigorated HyperCar class. And I've finally seen someone other than Toyota win me mans!
