2023 WEC 1000 Miles of Sebring Practice 1

[@giambe_x]

It's weird how a man with a cam is able to show more free practice footage than both the WEC and IMSA social media teams. Great work, may a tons of views arrive to this video

[@NeedforMine1]

Maybe not IMSA since they upload full race replays

[@onepolarman]

and FREE

[@ricarquitectura4857]

@Giambe X Well, in the case of wec, yes, since they are run by a group of elitists FOR elitists. IMSA, however, are totally diferrent on how they treat their fans and how the market their product. One can see, over the years, the result of their philosophy. Great series to follow! And @Lanky Turtle who, over the years, has been there to bring us, who could not be there, great footage.

[@Elkins82ify]

Exactly! The IMSA website offers little to no in depth technical details

[@Nicks62999]

​@@NeedforMine1 WEC also does it but not as efficient as Imsa, they take a couple weeks meanwhile Imsa has the replays 1 week later at max

[@theabyssaldemon]

Thanks again. The quality of Your coverage seems to be better than the official FIAWEC videos available haha

[@Silver3ides]

Agree .. r/wec sent me here :).. I'll be at Spa from the UK to see them .

[@georgeprice5368]

@@Silver3ides hey man, I was thinking of going this year from the UK. I've had a quick look and the price of a ferry or train to France is like three times as much as a Saturday ticket for the event, are you paying this or are you going from a agent who does it cheaper? I'd be driving by myself from England to Spa

[@zerosixteen.4644]

True. WEC is so bad at posting highlights compared to F1.

[@nine37]

@@zerosixteen.4644 And to think that not so long ago it was the opposite

[@speedracer6358]

the man behind the camera appreciates motorsport like the fans... he knows we actually care to see how it handles in the corners etc.

Cadillac Racing sound 05:01 06:00 06:40 08:05 09:28 11:00 Thx lanky

sounds like an airplane

[@texleeger8973]

NASCAR a la mode de l'European.

[@faketaxidriver5651]

The Cadillac reminds me of Sauber Mercedes-Benz C9 & C11

[@RAZGR1Z]

The Cadillac sounds so good!

[@neoguaren]

Mr. Endurance does it again. Thx from France !

[@ralphaverill2001]

What strikes me the most about these race cars, and this video footage does an excellent job of illustrating it, is the incredible cornering speeds these cars are capable of. The profound value of aerodynamic downforce is readily apparent.

[@AlpieInternet]

I love how the cadillac just sounds like a nascar stock car

[@Jacksracingprojects2]

the eletric motor close up on the ferrari was really really cool

[@tadroid3858]

Watching a bunch of cars work the same turn in and out of traffic is awesome! Thanks.

[@JaredR1996]

As always thank u Lanky

Hats off to you sir. Far better than any tv media coverage I've seen.

[@Ange-tc4rm]

that cadillac sounds the best, and the glickenhaus looks the best. Now, that peugeot is scoring high in coolness too.

[@paulmcdonald9592]

[@shaunster2]

Respect the bumps even when your walking around the place lol

[@toddredding485]

Thank you for all the spot on footage LT...you once again bring filming to a new level of WEC racing coverage.

[@wheelspinner20]

The Peugeot is definitely different looking. Cant wait to see how it competes!

[@peterjones6321]

The Peugeot Hypercar is absolutely mint. Endurance racing has hit a sweet spot, you'd say, with the introduction of the Hypercar class. It's so good to see such a variety of manufacturers and concepts out there.

[@H__BC]

Such great footages. It's hard through videos to feel the same as when we are alongside a track. But to some extend you manage to convey this feeling. Thanks a lot and keep up with this great content ! Thanks from Le Mans, France 🏁

[@Ufolas]

Che assoluta figata! Thanks for the video!

[@hugochu8106]

wow!!! cant wait to see acura, bmw and other manufacturers joining the field 😁

[@3322loco]

Thanks. Can't get enough of this content

[@toddredding485]

❤ The footage at turn one as every car that hits that left corner are defying gravity. I was up on Gurney Terrace last half of race Saturday.Absolutely amazing sound an wicked manuvers hitting that turn.

[@anels9]

Great content mate, thank you very much for the upload. I havent been this excited about the top tier endurance racing for many years. So nice to see such different variety.

[@electronights3589]

Is it just me or do the LMP2 cars look way more agile than the Hypercars through Turn 1 7:32

[@Coporfo]

LMP2 are 100KG ligther than Hypercars.

[@abyss18]

LMP2 cars are incredibly light

[@motogp4658]

Totally, they got a BHP and aero restriction, otherwise P2 would be way faster that the LMH class.

[@Donster2]

Yes, they are way lighter and overall are smaller cars dimensions wise, they also make around the same down force levels so there will be some corners on the schedule that they will be visible faster through. Another good example is the Porsche curves. There were some instances in last year's 24 hours where you can see that they were going through quicker. The p2's actually used to make even more down force but had to be slowed down to be overall slower than the hypercars around a lap

[@braedonlash2224]

Question from a newbie beginning to follow the endurance racing scene this season. Is there any particular reason I am seeing teams use the older 488 GT3 and 991.2 "RSR" used here in the WEC races and not the newer 296 GT3 and 992 RSR scene in IMSA so far? Thanks! P.S. thank you Lanky for continually providing this high-quality content, especially for newcomers like myself!

[@yannickpleiss3218]

In WEC the GTE Category is still used so these are no GT3 Machines.

[@marcogarbin2977]

they aren't GT3 spec but they are GTE spec. Next year you will see GT3 cars just like in GTWC, IMSA, DTM

[@Nicks62999]

Next year when GT3 class arrives you'll see those in WEC (along with lambos, mercs, mclarens and all the other GT3 brands probably)
