[timber umbra]

Mercedes are rumored to announce a hypercar project but nobody quite knows when

[marble stratus]

Imagine the same weekend as McLaren reveal thier hypercar

[winged cedar]

Hyperpole is like F1 qualifying

[serene magnet]

Hi

Oh right cool

I know Jenson button is racing Le Mans

Does he have any chance??

[winged cedar]

Qualifying happens and the top half of the grid do Hyperpole which is like Q3 in F1

[serene magnet]

Who’s the max verstappen then and who’s got the McLaren

[winged cedar]

It’s 2-3 man teams

[serene magnet]

Yeah I know that part

[winged cedar]

Porsche used to be the Red Bull of teams

[serene magnet]

Oh wow

I love a Porsche

[winged cedar]

Winning every year, Toyota before that

[serene magnet]

Wasn’t it Ferrari too

[winged cedar]

Ferrari are winning everything this year so far

[serene magnet]

At one point

Yeah

I know ford won it

At some point

[winged cedar]

In the 1960’s

[serene magnet]

Yeah haha

I watched Ford v Ferrari

Great movie

[winged cedar]

Button is in Cadillac and they have been improving

[serene magnet]

Oh nice

[winged cedar]

3rd best team to win (Possibly 2nd if Alpine are really fucked)

[serene magnet]

Oh so they somewhat have a chance

Where do u expect them to qualify

[winged cedar]

Toyota are eh, Porsche mid, Aston and Peugeot no way

Well all 4 Cadillacs are in hyperpole

Same as all 3 Ferrari

[serene magnet]

Nice

That’s good

[winged cedar]

But each factory team runs 2 cars

All the other are privateers

wait i thought mclaren wasnt in le mans

im so confused

[simple gyro]

they're in gt3

they're going to enter a hypercar in 2027

[serene magnet]

but united?

[simple gyro]

?

[serene magnet]

just got 8th

[simple gyro]

united autosports is the team

they run a gt3

[serene magnet]

im so confused lol

as u can tell i dont watch other motorsports

[simple gyro]

basically endurance is multiclass racing

in le mans 3 types of cars are racing

[plush quarry]

some lap from gelael

[simple gyro]

top class hypercars fighting for the overall win, lmp2 cars, and gt3 cars

[serene magnet]

OHHH

[simple gyro]

they race each other but all on the same track

[serene magnet]

that makes so much more sense

[simple gyro]

mclaren is in the gt3 class

not the hypercar class

[serene magnet]

but is there one winner?

from all

or is it like

[simple gyro]

there are overall winners yes

[serene magnet]

gt3 wionner, hypercar winner

[simple gyro]

and then there are class winners

[serene magnet]

and im asumming that hypercar always wins overall?

[simple gyro]

the top class winner is almost always the overall winner with a couple random exceptions

[simple gyro]

barring absurd circumstances

[serene magnet]

ok cool

tysm!

[simple gyro]

yeah

[serene magnet]

there must be a hella lot of cars on the track tho surely?

[simple gyro]

62 on the le mans grid

[serene magnet]

jeez

[simple gyro]

lots of invitations for le mans

[serene magnet]

how does that even work

[simple gyro]

the rest of the races have less

[simple gyro]

its a big track

3:20 laps for the top class

there are denser races

i think spa 24 hours has a 70 something car grid

[serene magnet]

its my first time watching endurance racing! im supporting jenson button

oh wow

is he hypercar?

[simple gyro]

yeah

the 38 cadillac

[serene magnet]

so he has a shot?

[simple gyro]

yes

[serene magnet]

at getting a result

[simple gyro]

he probably won't do qualifying though

[serene magnet]

ah

is he not the best driver :(

[simple gyro]

uh

not really lmao

[serene magnet]

noooo

i love jenson

i used to support him in f1

[simple gyro]

we're going to have h2 in a couple minutes for lmp2 and gt3 which is basically wec's q3 equivalent

and then we'll do hypercar qualifying

[plush quarry]

2017 le mans 🥀

didn't bamber win that one in a 919

i don't remember did something weird happen

or jackie chan

[serene magnet]

rossi

huh

[simple gyro]

rossi is a motogp guy

9 championships or something

[serene magnet]

yeah i recognise his name

[simple gyro]

he started gt3 racing a couple years back

[serene magnet]

any good?

[simple gyro]

he's quick

sometimes he does some really dumb stuff though

[serene magnet]

whos like the max verstappen here

[simple gyro]

uhhhh

hard to say really

[serene magnet]

are the cars pretty even?

[simple gyro]

there are drivers that are some of the best in the field but no one that really stands above the rest

[simple gyro]

they use something called balance of performance

basically use sim data and previous races to try to equalize the lap times of the cars

[serene magnet]

do u know whos like the favourites to win

[simple gyro]

for hypercar ferrari seem to be pretty strong

toyota has historically also been very strong

[serene magnet]

ok cool!

[simple gyro]

then you have people like cadillac which are quick but usually don't have the results to show for it

porsche also seems decent

[serene magnet]

american team?

[simple gyro]

run by a british team

[serene magnet]

ah

[simple gyro]

the aston martins are run by an american team funnily enough

[serene magnet]

ahjahha

whats this next qualifying run for?

[simple gyro]

basically wec's q3 equivalent

this will determine final starting positions of top 8

[serene magnet]

ooo

[simple gyro]

they have to use a different driver than the last session

[serene magnet]

thats a great idea

[simple gyro]

new for this year

[serene magnet]

so every quali is different

[simple gyro]

it's pretty fun

[serene magnet]

whos gonna go top here rossi?

[simple gyro]

probably not rossi

the way gt3 works is you have 3 drivers, one bronze rated driver, one silver, and one gold/platinum

drivers are rated by the fia based on accomplishments/skill

rossi is the silver driver but most other cars have their platinums/golds in

[serene magnet]

rossi did well!

[simple gyro]

he did

better than i would've thought

weird ass gaps in gt3

[serene magnet]

is cadillac now on?

so jensons team

Point 'Brake': The complexities behind Porsche's 963 hypercar braking system

Point 'Brake': The complexities behind Porsche's 963 hypercar braking system

Stopping an LMDh car is just as hard as getting it going. Sure, they’ve got four brakes, but these cars are hybrids, which means you also have regenerative braking. Plus adjustments for engine braking. This makes everything infinitely more complicated for teams, drivers, and suppliers, and frankly, a lot more interesting.
Conceptually, the LMDh braking system is a lot like what’s used in ...Keep reading

This makes zero sense

ALMS is a junior series with P2s, P3s, and GTs just like ELMS. LMP1 wasn't there, and not in ELMS for a long time. Why would they introduce the top class in a series meant for amateur drivers?! Are they trying to replace the LMP2 or LMP3 Class? Also why isn't ELMS doing the same? It's arguably more important than the ALMS considering much more ELMS cars go to Le Mans

[timber umbra]

AsLMS is not a junior series

And it was introduced because people in the series asked for it

[modern oar]

this driver parade is taking so long to start

[wet hornet]

Will it replace LMP3? And why isn't it introduced in ELMS then?!

Also the WEC calendar next year has been revealed, and Le Mans is going to clash with F1. Again. WHY?!?!?!?!

[winged cedar]

Availability is the issue, considering Le Mans takes place on open roads and not a closed circuit they’ll have issues everytime

[round vortex]

Motorsports are mostly a summer sport

There's only so many weeks in northwestern Europe where it isn't cold and wet

[wet hornet]

Why can't F1 just wait until Le Mans' date is revealed before scheduling around that? They did that successfully from 2017-2024

[round vortex]

I'm pretty sure they decided the calendars at the same world motorsport council meeting

[winged cedar]

Because F1 runs 24 races now not 21 and under

They’ll be more restricted then before

[wet hornet]

See, this is the problem with so many races!

[winged cedar]

Solution is easy, get 2 screens

[round vortex]

Also didn't F1 under Bernie actively try to schedule F1 on the same day as Le Mans to stop F1 drivers participating?

So it's not like it's a brand new thing for them to clash

[round vortex]

And I know for a fact that at the very least, F1 was at Baku on the same weekend as Le Mans in 2022

Not certain about the rest

[wet hornet]

*2016

Oh wait, 2022 as well

You're right, I forgor

Anyway another even bigger problem with running F1 and Le Mans on the same weekend is dividing attention between the 2 races, which is exasperated with F1 (the race itself) running at the same time as the end of the Le Mans race, which will happen next year. At least this year, the Canadian GP will start after Le Mans ends. F1 and Le Mans being held at the same time divides attention between the 2 races, reducing potential viewership for both. Unless of course they want to champion one series above the other. Which is stupid, as they both have equal prestige

Like, F1 drivers not getting to race at Le Mans isn't the biggest deal in the world since it's already extremely difficult to do so in 2025, especially since WEC races clash with F1 races all the time and these days you have to drive a WEC car full time in order to compete at Le Mans.

Unless of course you have an LM only third car, but it's usually driven by IMSA drivers and factory drivers who don't compete in WEC full time

motorsport.com · Jun 13, 2025, 2:25 PM

[wet hornet]

This is good though

[timber umbra]

I mean I do not think it is this deep

It is just bound to happen with both series expanding their calendars

There are only so many weeks in a year so things are bound to clash

If you would start moving Le Mans for example then you run the risk of it clashing with other big races such as the 24's at Spa or Nurburgring

And F1 cannot really move stuff around because it fucks with the other races and that is just an issue of them having so many races in a year

[wet hornet]

Sure, but I don't think I will ever wrap my head around why ALMS gets Hypercars but ELMS does not

Also ALMS getting Hypercars would mean that they would have to axe LMP3

[round vortex]

I imagine it's probably because ALMS is more a winter series

[wet hornet]

I was thinking more along the lines of giving ALMS a shot in the arm to make up for LM entries from that series dwindling

But both make sense

Le Mans 24 Hours, Hour 12: #6 Porsche leads as first safety car shakes up order

Porsche heads a shaken up order in the 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours at the halfway stage, with the #6 PPM 963 in the hands of Laurens Vanthoor leading after a battle against Ferrari.
At the start of the seventh hour, the customer #83 AF Corse Ferrari 499P with Yifei Ye jumped into the lead after the pit cycle, with the factory Ferraris in close company, initially stretching away from the #6 ...Keep reading

Le Mans 24 Hours, Hour 18: Ferrari back in control with 1-2-3

Ferrari has regained its control of the 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours with one quarter of the race remaining, with just seven seconds separating its lead duo.
The #6 Porsche Penske Motorsport 963 LMDh and the #8 Toyota GR010 HYBRID LMH had profited from a safety car earlier in the race but the Porsche slipped back behind the lead two Ferrari 499P LMHs in the 14th hour when they did not stop during a ...Keep reading

Jenson Button on sleep deprivation at Le Mans: "I've got two kids, I know what it's like not sleeping"

When you go to the Le Mans 24 Hours as a journalist, there’s a list of evergreen topics that come up every year: traffic, rain, nighttime driving, traffic again… and sleep.
The schedule can be gruelling for drivers, with practice running until 12am on Wednesday and Thursday nights, and media commitments in the morning. On Saturday and Sunday, it’s easy for the 24-hour race to turn into a ...Keep reading

Ferrari was in control of the 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours as the race reached one-quarter distance, with its trio of 499P LMHs enjoying a net top-three lockout.
Cadillac driver Sebastien Bourdais' pre-race frustration surrounding Ferrari's pace proved correct in the opening six hours of the race as the Prancing Horse machines worked their way to the front.
The #50 499P was leading at the time the ...Keep reading

Cadillac has pole, but no chance to win Le Mans 24h – here’s why

Sebastien Bourdais says Cadillac can’t hope for much more than a top-five finish at the Le Mans 24 Hours, despite a 1-2 on the grid in qualifying.
Cadillac Jota secured the first two spots on the grid for this weekend’s French classic, outperforming its competition in both Hyperpole sessions.
Jack Aitken (in the Cadillac Whelen car) and Sebastien Bourdais were fastest in Hyperpole 1 with ...Keep reading

Le Mans 24 Hours: Ferrari wins as Porsche spoils 1-2-3

Ferrari has won the 93rd running of the Le Mans 24 Hours with its satellite #83 entry, driven by Phil Hanson, Robert Kubica and Yifei Ye.
The Italian constructor could have been the first manufacturer to lock out the podium at La Sarthe since factory Audi outfit Joest Racing took a 1-2-3 in 2012, but the sister #50 (Fuoco-Molina-Nielsen) and #51 (Calado-Giovinazzi-Pier Guidi) cars were ...Keep reading

[lethal yacht]

GREENNNN

[manic palm]

SVG apparently called Max for tips on Mexico City

[lethal yacht]

[gloomy bison]

new to nascar, what teams u guys think i should follow

[lethal yacht]

literally any

[simple gyro]

probably should select some cars that you like

[lethal yacht]

they're pitting for the sticks but apparently more rain in 15 mins

[simple gyro]

that's the way I started

[lethal yacht]

honestly this is a v hard call

GIBBS IN

[simple gyro]

top teams for each manu are hendrick (Chevy), joe gibbs racing (Toyota) and penske (Ford)

[lethal yacht]

3 to go until the end of stage 1

[gloomy bison]

errr new to motorsports

[gloomy bison]

ooh olay ill follow these until i pick a fav

kinda like chevorlet too ngl

[simple gyro]

thats like 10 cars just saying

yeah hendrick then

drivers are larson, Byron, Elliot, and bowman

[gloomy bison]

omg im actually watching eliott rn

idk how to watxh full race so im watching drivers cam

[simple gyro]

depends on where you live

[gloomy bison]

heard theyre rlly good

[simple gyro]

in the US it's on Amazon prime

[gloomy bison]

ohhh okay ty

[simple gyro]

Larson and Byron are better than the others

eliott has been eh this season but he's been running decently

[simple gyro]

only for this race and the next though welcome to us sports broadcasting hell

[gloomy bison]

ohh okay arent one of them up and coming?

[gloomy bison]

why is it lit impossible to stream these bro

[simple gyro]

uhh not really

[simple gyro]

no one buys the rights to the whole season

so we have the fox stint at the beginning which is hell

and then this prime stint which has been great

and then nbc or something I don't remember

broadcasting quality varies greatly

[gloomy bison]

i feel like that would soooo hurt viewing rates

[simple gyro]

probably yeah

[gloomy bison]

dont thwy have their own website like f1?

[simple gyro]

viewership is down on prime because boomers don't know how to use streaming services

[simple gyro]

not a streaming website though

[gloomy bison]

ugh thats their sin

i would so buy that membership

[simple gyro]

yeah it's weird

[gloomy bison]

and make it easier for older viewers

[simple gyro]

unless you want to pay for tv packages you have to watch it uh

y'know on YouTube replays or whatever

[gloomy bison]

crying ill just watxh the yt highlights

😭

[past crescent]

Why’s the race so late 😭

[manic palm]

Tbf that part isn’t totally true

Indycar has FOX broadcasting the whole season

[simple gyro]

yeah for NASCAR specifically I meant

[manic palm]

People would buy the full season rights

[simple gyro]

indycar is small fry compared

[manic palm]

NASCAR just wouldn’t be able to get the money they want

[simple gyro]

well yeah obviously

sell it for ten bucks and someone will buy

[lethal yacht]

radar is fully green and rain

[eternal ravine]

Truex doing victory donuts I see

[vague mango]

Huh they are putting this on TV

Dont really care for American automobilism but this is cool ig

[jaunty obsidian]

When penalties for Logano and Herbst?

[lethal yacht]

that was close as fuck

[vague mango]

I don't exactly get what I expected from Televisa but damn fuck you and your ads after a crash

[round glen]

I wonder if Logano was thinking, “Hmm. Well, he did it to me at Richmond.”

[lethal yacht]

is that rain

[coarse delta]

nascar is fullllllll of ads icl

[simple gyro]

light rain in stadium

[coarse delta]

it’s one of the reasons I just don’t watch nascar. i cant stand the sheer volume of ads

[simple gyro]

prime coverage is mostly side by side so not too bad

fox was horrible

[vague mango]

Plus Televisa :defeat_cry:

These people have no fucking shame

DUDE

[lethal yacht]

im watching on vsport3

[vague mango]

THATS BARELY 10 MINUTES OF RACING AND ALREADY GETTING AN AD

FUCK YOU

[lethal yacht]

american commentary and basically no ads, just cutting off the commentary instead and we hear the raw engines

a caution towards the end, and restarting with like 5 laps left would cause absolute carnage

[vague mango]

WHAT THE FUCK IS A MILE

I still believe we should race Indy here

Actually daily Fuck Liberty reminder
