Default 24 Hours of LeMans - 24 hours of race broadcast

First time I've had the ability to watch the whole race - Motortrend TV is included on YoutubeTV. Of course I have a bunch of things to do today, but youtubeTV will record the whole thing for me.
Listening on RadioLemans, which his generally better than the TV announcers, but about 15 seconds ahead of the picture.

Anyone else here watching?

24 hours of Lamaze racing sounds rather intriguing.

Oh, LeMans racing...carry on.

24 hours of car racing? I am going to wait for the movie.

Seems like no love for the penultimate sports car endurance race...

I was intending on watching it this year, but I was unable to find a free live stream like I have in years past. So I watched the highlights every couple hours, and watched a bit of the streamed "onboard" feeds.

I was happy to see Aston Martin beat Ferarri to win the GT-Pro class, but was disappointed that Corvette wasn't there to compete.

And I kinda say "meh" to Toyota/Gazoo winning P1, considering they basically had no real competition... When you are a factory-backed team investing untold tens of millions into the program each year - it's hardly impressive to beat the privateer teams. Still, Rebellion put up a pretty decent fight against Toyota.

Watched portions of it and loved it.

"Lemans" remains one of my all time favorite films of all time.
