2014 24 Hours of Le Mans

It's only their first year back so it's not disastrous, just disappointing that the 2 teams that took the fight to Audi both had terminal problems.

Next year will be absolutely incredible. Porsche will know more about their car so I'm betting on them!

 

I would like to see cars like Mclaren P1 in LeMans like in old good days

Don 't discount Nissan next year in P1.

 

ooooh, good point.

 

With as many Cayannes and Panameras as Porsche is selling, they should be flush with cash to keep the program going. I hope they're in this for the long haul.

they wnat to win or just beat TOYOTA?

 

+1

Makes you wish for a GT "open" class of sorts. Man, think of racing versions of the P1, 918, and LaFerrari going full bore for 24 hours.

yes, they need new class but no way for Ferrari with V12 but they can borrow engine V8 from 458 replacment

 

LMP2 has quite the battle going.

 

Obviously with the expenditure if funds they would want to win - every team that races wants to win. Glad to see Gimmi in the 51 to the finish, Ferrari to P1 he'd be the best to transfer from GT. Ferrari already has a hybrid.

 

I'm happy that aston no. 95 is still on the lead

 

Mclaren P1 is the closest what we could see in Le Mans

 

All Dane team, AM could not be a better tribute to honor Allan.

 

Key to being 1st in LMP2 is coffee and flapjacks!! Love it

 

Embarrassing debut for Porsche LMP1

 

that would be pretty slick to see

 

#14 back out to show a finish bravo Porsche. NO way is it to be shamed for any of there big three ever one had some very complex issues, badly wrecked cars and teams that don't give up. Congrats to Leena. Nice round of applause from Audi to Porsche coming back in track.

 

I disagree. It's their first year back and they had very quick cars. Reliability wasn't up to snuff, but I say job well done. This isn't exactly an easy race to finish, especially when you're pushing as hard as they had to in order to keep up with the big boys. They'll be back and much stronger I believe.

congratulations to AUDI and Aston Martin

 

Jota Zytek and the AF Corse team also. Well done to all and impressive across the board.

 

congrats to Audi and all the class winners.

particularly big congrats to the #95 Aston for their win after last year's tragic race.

 

+1 Great race this year.

 

Audi just keeps winning! Amazing!

 

#2 he is crying (many people crying)

 

If you have never been, put it on a to do list. We've been several times and yes people do cry. The music at the beginning when they come around Porsche Curve to spending night at the circuit to the finish, it is absolutely amazing!
