One of the greatest fights I've seen in a WEC race - had me on the edge of my chair for the final ten minutes. Kamui is an absolute machine!

Man, when I saw Kevin decreased the 9sec gap to less than a second in 10 minutes, I thought he could've got ahead of Kamui. Both drivers were very exciting to see for the final 10 minutes. Both are legend drivers.

@@Koyomimatic broo, chill, i think you misunderstood it, I'm new to WEC and I actually like Estre. What I meant to ask was who is the equivalent of Estre on the F1 grid. Since I'm a long time F1 fan and new to WEC, I don't actually know most of the drivers here, so I wanted a broader view on how skilled Estre actually is
So cool to see the Toyota vs Porsche battle back since the LMP1 era

what a battle! a total of 0 overtakes on eachother! awesome...!
KK reminds me of a boxer who has no wasted movement.
Commentator not even hiding he wanted Kobayashi to make a mistake for a Porsche win. This is FIA’s official broadcast??
congratulations TOYOTA🎉
Might want to put a few bucks on Porsche for Le Mans
Rumor has it that after this race both Kobayashi and his benefactor, Keyser Söze, disappeared, never to be seen again.

I love passionate commentators but if that's not for you guys fair ig?
Toyota has declared once they arrrived on the track that they painted their car black because in Japanese culture that represents the "hate of loosing" refering to the defeat in Le mans 2023 by Ferrari. I am an italian Tifoso, and I was in Imola, once we have all understoodthat ferrari would not take the chaquered flag, we all starting support Estre😂😂😂
Where was the "epic"? Not a single switch in leading. Not a single real attack. Estre was hunting 4 sure, but he was never in a real spot to overtake. It was tight, not more not less. "fight" pffff
