Summary

The 92nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans did not disappoint after heavy rain and some controversial stewarding as the #50 Ferrari of Miguel Molina, Antonio Fuoco and Nicklas Nielsen triumphed over the #7 Toyota of Kamui Kobayashi, Nyck de Vries and Jose Maria Lopez to take their second-consecutive win for the prancing horse. Gary Watkins joins Steph Wentworth to review all the action across the famous race. Together they discuss the incredible energy save that the Ferrari team pulled off to win the race, as well as some of the controversial stewarding towards the end with the #8 Toyota spun out of contention by the other factory Ferrari. There’s also a full breakdown of all the other major Hypercar factories, such as both Alpine’s failing to finish after simultaneous engine failures, how Porsche slipped out of contention due to their misjudgement of the conditions, where Cadillac lost time compared to their rivals, and the rough showing for BMW. And finally, reviews of the LMP2 and LMGT3 classes, as United Autosports and Manthey EMA taking victory in their respective classes! Learn more about your ad choices.
