Love the turbo whistle 👍🏾

[@the.flat.six.]

This is why I love Porsche with outstanding results.

[@TheAmishSasquatch]

I remember watching testing and the actual race. The bare carbon/Aramid cars during testing were boss compared to the competition!!

[@superfast30]

What a stunning competition car!

[@anwar.termizi]

[@christoph-GB]

Epic upload, thanks

Definitely the most brutal-looking and the most beautiful-looking (simultaneously) racer Porsche has ever come up with. 993 GT1 (1996) , and 996 GT1 (1997) looked best, the 1998 996 GT1 looked more like a prototype (closed cockpit LMP), than a GT1 racer, I did not like the 1998 996 GT1 as much as the previous year ones, even though it was faster or quicker around the lap. The GT1 racers from 1995 to 1997 were probably some of the best looking racing machines ever to exist on a racetrack. Great footage, I appreciate it! Thanks!

um, no. Certainly you are the first ive ever heard to express sentiment such as this, the 1998 version, apart from actually winning the 24 hours, looks far, far better aesthetically in every way than the previous iteration. and I would be willing to bet that nearly every single true Porsche enthusiast would probably have the 996 GT1 vehicle near at the bottom of their list for most beautiful, or brutal, or accomplished, etc. anything..... get a clue.

1998 was best don't ever question it again! :P

[@XTC4rava]

16:00 this is such a good quality video for 1996 :D

[@bnmcmhn]

2:27 check out the livery on this guys pants

[@tayf85]

I would have though it was a bit cold for budgie smugglers during Le Mans

[@stevefowler1787]

One of the street versions sold here in America recently...I think it went for $3 big ones...or maybe it was $5...I seem to remember them saying it was one of only 3 in America.

[@arfshesaid4325]

is there a guy around that has been involved with as many amazing cars as Norbert has

[@gregporsche6162]

Porsche the best car ever

[@andrewwang8204]

8:50 this is the most German mumble ever.

[@bernardleclerc1046]

Good comments. But Dr. Helmut Marko is not German. He is Austrian.

[@repairdrive]

Great video

[@BlackQuest89]

Those who gave this video a dislike must wear tampons

[@iwantanaivanovic2962]

Ferrari red thongs and Merc silver bras.

[@bavarianbass]

awesome vid. where is this from?

[@schwanzelstock1071]

Probably because it's not a Bavarian based brand....... ?

[@H05TYL]

Source? Norbert Singers book 24:16 lists the GT1-98's weight as "967kg (empty without driver)"

[@FirstnameLastname-py3bc]

98 and non-98 are different

[@General-Gauder]

lol Helmut Marko is an Austrian not a German

[@cesargonzalesviera1954]

10.09 toyota sard mr2 lm

[@arealassassin]

well spotted.

[@blackmondayy1]

The Porsche 911 GT1, the Mercedes CLK - GTR, the McLaren F1 GTR, the Toyota GT1 ...those were the best years of LeMans imo

[@greebuh]

Carbon Kevlar.

[@greebuh]

So you are quoting a weight on a car that is not even in this vid. The GT1-98 is a different car. The one in this vid is is the 993 GT1, not the 996 which is the GT1-98.

[@festol1]

This is not journalism. 1997 the GT1 was won by McLarens F1 again. And 1998 the GT1 that won was a 996 GT1.

[@petemaverick869]

Lol😂 twr wins

[@taj334]

So many mistakes in this video.....

[@taj334]

***** For example Helmut Marko ist not german, he is an austrian. The narrator says that the 956 had a flat (crank) engine, but in fact it had a boxer engine.

[@taj334]

***** Haha You mad? You have to be a troll or completey stupid.

[@taj334]

***** No, i don't do that anymore. I only kill children from time to time. But since the sky has become yellow, blue tables have different strings today.

[@christophergammon6670]

+taj334 Shh..Sam is always trolling!
