Its fucking go time! Le 24 heures du Mans drops the flag this afternoon with a couple really cool storylines. Biggest of which is Porsche’s Nasr, Tandy, and Vanthoor chasing the Endurance racing Triple Crown - Rolex24 of Daytona, 12 hours of Sebring and the 24h of Le Mans all in the same year - something that has never been done before. Porsche-Penske fields 3 factory entries 2 of which lead the points on the IMSA circuit this year so I like their chances and I’d love to see history made. Also a first, an American manufacturer has not just thr pole position, but completely locked out the front row with Cadillac going 1-2 in qualifying. If you’ve ever had the chance to hear them, the Cadillac GTP/Hypercar prototypes naturally aspirated V8 engines sound like the most vicious things on earth. LFG!
I still call it The Jake.
