Epic Toyota vs Porsche - The battle of the year - CotA 2017

[@robirocks1209]

5:26 Incredible battle by the top teams of LMP1.

[@lolb9120]

Really don’t want to say that this was more exciting than f1 at the moment! But it was!

[@JackyJaffary]

Way cooler than f1

[@2007suprasport]

Wow! Amazing! Battle ..that prius is no joke.

[@webcrawler9782]

that beatle neither

[@RW_CreativeMedia]

That’s the power I need in a PRIUS, so I will wait for this.

[@KingKong-xp6so]

The Prius was also in f1 racing.. Lol

[@twmijjit]

Great, only if Toyota can make street cars that exciting again.

[@gro_skunk]

TWM M check out the Toyota GR Super Sports concept, they're planning on making it.

New Supra out soon i think

Why the hell toyota and porsche had similar livery?

[@soyunbanano166]

Why the hell not?...

[@fidan2fast]

Japanese red and white are toyota's traditional colors, porsche is the one to blame here

[@fidan2fast]

@@soyunbanano166 because it was extremely hard to differentiate them from a distance

[@AbrahamArthemius]

They were changing their old "Blue & White" livery to the "Red, Black, & White" to reflect their new GR (Gazoo Racing) colors

[@baldowz]

@@fidan2fast I understand the difficulty but I didn't really had a hard time differentiating. Looking at the side, the one with the black rear wing is the Porsche and the one with the white rear wing is the Toyota plus the latter have this red stripe going from the wind shield towards the upper rear fins if that is what you call it. From the front just picture this, even at a distance, the Toyota's front end looks like a 90's red bikini while the Porsche's front end look like grandma panties.

[@eddy2fast534]

FINALY !!.... a commentary that isn't trying to beat the cars. Well done boys.

[@txisbest2010]

Good bye Porsche, you will be missed. On the plus side, now we can finally tell the LMP1 cars apart.

[@JohnDoe-xu2vx]

Yeah because there are no other lmp1 cars

They'll return with 963

[@joshimura1995]

The 919 was at his peak in 2017, porsche probably had to build a new car with a new engine to challenge the toyotas if they continued of course. Toyota did that step already in 2016 with a new car and a v6 turbo that replaced the obsolete NA V8. Its still funny how a untestricted 919 can smash every record tho.

[@liocla2331]

Makes u think what an unrestricted toyota could do

[@caesar485]

You are talking about the spa lap? F1 beat that record same year

[@nonamerighthander5563]

@@caesar485 yes but It is still holds the nurburgring which is much better

[@Devourur]

@@liocla2331 unrestricted toyota wouldn’t be as good as the evo. The evo also has a better aero package

[@grimm6jack]

@@Devourur In 2017, the Toyota and the Porsche were mostly equally matched. However, the Toyota did have the edge. The only reason they lost that year was because of Le Mans... An unrestricted Toyota would be the same as the 919 Evo... Lighter, better aero, more power, etc...

[@Soda_F1]

Lopez is an awesome driver

[@tristantheuerkorn777]

Damn ist that great! Imagine a 24 hour race of fighting like this! As a driver you are finished after such one. Must be very, very tough.

[@WanderingSword]

Toyoya had it in the bag in 2017. A $10 dollar part let them down on the final lap. Would have been nice to see Porsche in LMP1 in 2018 duking it out with Toyota. Alas it didn't happen.

[@Extra-dg7uv]

Toyota most definitely didn't "have it in the bag" in 2017. They lost all their cars in the night, two to mechanical failure and one to driver error. The winning Porsche, meanwhile, came back from last overall, overcame a 12 lap deficit and won the race. Your confusing it with 2016.

[@brianlobo1512]

You get amazing racing when you allow manufacturers to compete within different formulas that suit their engineering preference.

[@rudfil]

LMP1 cars in 2017 were so much faster than todays hypercars.

[@BansheeRiderNL]

Those LMP1 Hybrids were something else... I miss those beasts.

[@jerryjoe88]

A shame their were no fans there to see this.

[@legentilhommedefortune]

My two favorite brands !

[@soyunbanano166]

We need to move Porsche And Toyota to F1 so it gets more exciting.

[@HugoCheung_8652]

Toyota not good in f1 as their company culture not suitable for f1 And toyota had been an f1 team from the beginning of the y2k

[@KingKong-xp6so]

@@TheNecromancer6666 Lmao! Lopez gave so much for Lotterer. It's Lotterer's luck that Toyota with older tyers and didn't have any grip..

[@redtail1.]

For some reason, these cars looked as fast as the f1 cars on some fast parts of the track

[@beemz8841]

It's because they don't decelerate and it makes them look absolutely slick. Lower speed through the fast corners but their mid-high speed stability is close if not better than F1 cars of 2017

[@ponanikhoza1934]

These RSRs are so crazy they even drown out the LMP 1 power units.

[@fwv9521]

We want to see this Toyota and Porsche battle again in the future...

[@Alexi7666]

I really don't understand building a racetrack in BFE, Texas when there are so many other fantastic racetracks in the U.S.

[@kevinroberts361]

Austin is BFE Texas ? I thought it was the capitol ? Awesome track, just not good for bike racing too much one line sections where they get spread out to quickly. Most of the good racetracks in America are aging with obviously no way to update? Don't understand the meaning of your statement? 22 million people in Texas, yea BFE ?

[@Snow_OwL217]

This Track Needs High Downforce... Fantastic to see, how these P1 Cars through the corners. Realy Fast!

[@djorksolo8544]

Pasión de coches yeah and more than all, porsche was enough lucky to escape twice to lose in WEC and 24h LeMans against Toyota! They're really afraid to lose, Toyota got more victories and podiums than them in 2017 WEC 😂😆 porsche only won the wec titles thanks to the double LeMans points. 2018 remove these double points, so porsche would lose ! And in 2016 Toyota one lap to go to won LeMans but they're not as lucky as germans brands !

[@djorksolo8544]

Pasión de coches you're kinda wrong, because in 2014 was Toyota who was WEC champions !

[@djorksolo8544]

Pasión de coches Yeah ! Thanks to the unlucky and cursed team Toyota for the easy wins to the germans brands ! Especially the 2016, 2014, 1999 !
