Wow! 2017 full race? This is awesome, FIAWEC! Do keep this up, please! :) Greetings from Brazil!

Danilo Foltran Também sou do Brasil!!! Cara pensava que só tinha eu no canal.

[@danilofoltran6056]

Até onde eu sei, não, Bruno.

[@danilofoltran6056]

Haha, também pensei. Me inscrevi esses dias e fiquei muito contente de ver que eles upam corridas inteiras com narração. Bom demais isso.

2017 full race on the official WEC channel? And with the legend Allan Mcnish on commentary?! Oh and Toby Moody off of Moto GP and BTCC for a season? Thank you so much WEC. If this becomes a regular occupancy then I will be one happy fan!!

[@MaxBrains]

I couldn't hit the subscribe button fast enough. I can't get WEC full races on TV where I am, so this is a lifesaver.

[@brmh1667]

I just wish to add to the wealth of thanks being sent your way for letting us (hopefully!) see this fabulous series. Really, I have loved sports car racing since the early 'Sixties and to have this sort of in -depth coverage is just wonderful. Thank you so much for this. If only we had this decades ago! Any historic footage would be gratefully received too by the way! But... just thanks, so much! Looking forward to Le Mans, the Great (French) Race massively, as always.

[@Taust724]

Thank you WEC! As a fan of racing, it is incredible that you have uploaded the full race on a free service. This has made my day and I would love to purchase a ticket to see racing like this live in Austin, Texas. Please keep this up

[@madmac66]

Trevor Austin COTA is in Austin, you gotta go if you’re that close. Bit of a drive for me from CA

[@k_ostolom]

You are the real Heros WEC! Thanks.... :D But can you Upload LeMans too please? :D

[@AlmaBrava]

CptSaveAHoe i dont think they can, i belive it works like an independent race from Wec, despite counting for the champ.

[@Alcore250]

CptSaveAHoe they did

[@magnummax78]

Thanks, WEC! You guys have too many fans in the States now to leave us hanging!! Uploading all of your races is a no-brainer. Unless you just DO NOT want us seeing your sponsor's shiny logos....

[@mlockwood5116]

Thank you!! WEC really is the best...

[@5tuartGuy]

Keep it up WEC!!! Full races on youtube!!!

[@MotorsportMeister]

Hello FIA WEC, I have just recieved two copyright strikes from your channel on my videos. One video features footage from the TV broadcast of the WEC 6 hours of Silverstone, to which you fully owe the rights. Therefore I understand the reasoning behind the strike. However, the second video exclusively features my own amateur footage from the WEC 6 hours of Spa-Francorchamps. All of the footage from this video was recorded trackside as a spectator by me. Therefore I do not understand why it has recieved a strike. I see that no other videos featuring amateur footage have not been claimed, so why has mine been claimed? Please remove the strike on my video "CLOSE CALLS + ACTION! WEC at Spa-Francorchamps". Yours sincerely Der Hausmeister

[@KaiCheetah]

Motorsport Meister you are aware that they will not reply here

[@brianpedersen4884]

Hi Wec. Why is there Windows on the front fenders ? And what is the orange sometime flashing light in the Windows on the LMP 1 cars ? Thanks in advance and Thanks for Great transmissions.

[@maximsoucy]

Awesome, F1 should learn from you guys!

[@nural29]

thanks a gazillion for uploading!! suck this up F1!! baammm

[@wernermann5868]

Thx from Germany! 👍👍👍

[@beenaplumber8379]

21:48 - WTF??? 1:05:36 - Piquet Jr. leaves the track limits to pass. There was no other need to go off. 1:49:30 - #8 Batmobile!

[@Ewane]

Beena Plumber I remember 21:48 whilst in the grandstand, they were throwing shirts into the crowd.

[@beenaplumber8379]

@@Ewane My eyes would not have been on the shirts... But why are they walking so funny? That's how people walk when they wear snowshoes for the first time. I can see they have some very bulky sort of boots on.

[@chrisbryant5382]

Commentary is amazing. English not so much as a foreign language but as a totally alien concept. Come back Radio Le-Mans ,although I often felt the need for sub-titles. Sad not to have Doctor Ullrich in pit lane. I miss the corvettes too. More is the pity the malign hand of the FIA is present, I worry for the series with the ghastly Jean Todt in control. Well done Toyota on the win and the No7 rebuild was worthy of Audi.

[@derthilo787]

well, on the one hand McNish will give us a huge chunk of his knowledge over time, phantastic pro. and in fact, he's a surprisingly good commentator.; on the other hand, while he's sure a nice guy i have to say the maincommentator delivers nothing WEC-worthy, and the pit-chick (while sure nice..) is completely the wrong choice, sadly emberassing ö_Ö #first lady Shae

[@obinhartono3740]

well, read the 2017 WEC TV broadcast preview can give you some perspective www.fiawec.com/en/news/new-wec-tv-broadcast-team-announced-for-2017/4830

When will the race of Spa be uploaded?

I still do a double take when I see a shot of Bruno Senna with his lid on. uncanny innit?

This is what I meant by "when will the full race be uploaded" XD

[@nathenwatson8949]

👍👍👍👍👍good job wec will all 9 rounds be uploaded?

[@nathenwatson8949]

…please 🙏

[@tahzib1451]

i like the yellow lights...why did they change it from 2018?

[@Ewane]

Tahzib Hussaini a white light is cheaper and more efficient

[@Nico_F]

No radio lemans commentators this year?

[@armorgeddon]

Great upload except low framerate and being too late too watch before the following race.

[@tylermalic]

plese bring the big show to the streets of vancover bc or edmonton ab can

[@Ewane]

Tyler Malic I doubt the WEC would suit street circuits.

[@siddkumar8032]

Question for the WEC what happened to Audi?

[@armorgeddon]

They betrayed the customers of their Diesel cars and because of that decided it wouldn't fit their marketing if they kept racing Diesel cars.

[@Ewane]

Sidd Kumar becuase of the Volkswagen Dieselgate scandal it didn't make sense for the Volkswagen Group to race diesel cars, so Audi pulled out at the end of 2016

What happend to the corvette team ?

[@armorgeddon]

They only participate in the Le Mans round.

[@sparky6770]

Yh i seen but why last year they were in all year

[@kartaltoth684]

in the IMSA WSC yeah but not in WEC

[@Ewane]

I think you are referring to Larbre Competition in LMGTE AM, they chose only to contest Le Mans and (as a warm-up) the Monza ELMS round in 2017

[@sequoiatree555]

more lmp1 competitors, not just 4 cars

[@ffilby]

Jerry.... Asphinctersayswhat?!

[@kayacorak600]

If you are going to upload the entire race 1 or 2 weeks after live broadcast, then do live broadcast free of charge.

[@kayacorak600]

If it makes sense for IMSA, it make sense for FIA too.

[@armorgeddon]

Problem with the official pay stream is that it's also low framerate, often fails, can only be paid with a credit card, etc..

[@madmac66]

Shut up or pay up

[@Ewane]

Kaya Çorak no because the series has to get money. Also, most people want to watch it live and will pay for it, whilst very little will pay to watch a race 2 weeks after it takes places. Therefore, the ability to gain new fans is more than the potential income for uploading a couple of weeks later.

[@Ewane]

Kaya Çorak doesn't work like that. People and TV companies are interested in WEC from all around the world, whilst IMSA would struggle to find a TV deal anywhere other than the USA (maybe Canada could also make a viable deal). IMSA gains more interest and fans from people globally by streaming it free, as many of these people wouldn't be willing to pay for coverage.

[@ukbhds4493]

Toyota didnt deserve that win

[@tylermalic]

bring back group c and while you are at do away with air restictors and b op for all classes and encerige srt and dodge to bring in the hellcat chalinger and tomahawk prtotype and get corvett to join as well that is the only car missing on the grid for all gt raceing including spa and batherst

[@madmac66]

Tyler Malic the hellcat is a muscle car, not a sports car or a GT car. It can’t go around corners, only fit for drag racing

[@Ewane]

Tyler Malic Group C cars are not appropriate for now, factory teams would not be interested. Removing BoP would remove all factory teams from GT racing as well. Your suggestions would kill off the series.

[@csonkaperdido]

You don't know much about racing do you? The Challenger is NOT A RACING CAR. The Tomahawk Prototype also doesn't exist - it is only a video game car. Also - learn how to spell for fucks sake.

[@madmac66]

Prost, Senna, Laura, Piquet. All the big names in racing are in WEC while the F1 is full of posers and prima donnas

[@tahzib1451]

worthless podium placing.....its a joke that the race is dominated by LMP1 while the other class only gets a participation trophy in the form of class winner....

[@Maenfy]

What else are they supposed to get? Obviously the overall winners get the most attention, winning in class is still honoured highly.

[@csonkaperdido]

You clearly don't know anything about WEC or endurance racing. The LMP1 cars are supposed to be the fastest - they have 1,000hp and the most downforce. LMP1 class is also meant for the manufacturers - which is why it's Porsche vs Toyota - and Porsche and Toyota actually build their own cars. They are almost completely different cars. They just look similar. Porsche has a 2.0L turbocharged V-4 engine (yes a V-4, not a flat-4 or inline-4)...plus a 500hp electric KERS hybrid system that drives the front wheels. The V-4 engine drives only the rear wheels. Also - A V-4 is a totally unique engine that literally no other car in the world currently uses. No road cars or racing cars besides Porsche used a V-4 engine. Toyota uses a 2.6L twin-turbocharged V-6 engine driving the rear wheels, plus a 500hp KERS electric hybrid system that drives the front wheels. Therefore the LMP1 cars are 4 wheel drive when they deploy the hybrid boost, and 2 wheel drive when they are not using the electric hybrid boost. LMP2 cars have "only" 600hp and slightly less downforce. The LMP2 class is not meant for auto manufacturers, that's why they use different chassis like Oreca, Dallara, Ligier etc. Those companies do not sell cars for road use... All LMP2 cars use a naturally aspirated Gibson 4.2L V-8 engine and all engines are identical. The LMP2 class is meant for private racing teams, that's why they are not referred to by the chassis type but the racing team that owns them. G-Drive, Valliante Rebellion, etc are the racing teams which own and operate the cars. GT cars are just that... GT cars. As in Grand Touring cars. This series is meant for both manufacturer teams in the GTE-Pro division, such as Ford, Porsche, Aston Martin and Ferrari. The GTE-Pro cars have full manufacturer support. The GTE-Am (for "Amateur) division has limited manufacturer support and is meant for anyone who has enough money to buy a race car, and has the skill to drive it. That's why the GTE-Am cars are referred to by the name of the team that owns and operates the car... Much like the LMP2 cars. Grand Touring is a step above "regular" Touring cars like the WTCC (World Touring Car Championship) and GT cars are cars that you can buy and drive on the road - they are obviously faster than the road car version, and are lighter than the road car version. The other classes don't get "participation trophies"... They have their own seperate World Championship classifications and prize money. So that should explain things to you, and now you should understand why the LMP1 cars are typically the top 3 cars in the race and usually get the overall race win. The LMP2, and both GTE classes each get their own podium and podium ceremony. The don't just get "participation trophies" as you naively suggested. Next time you decide to make a stupid comment about something you don't know anything about - try learning something about it first. Then you won't make stupid comments about it.
