Please never leave RUclips again! It's so convenient for us Europeans to catch it the next morning instead of having to wait for a week or so like it was in the past! Thank you!!!!
To be honest, as long as IMSA is generous enough to let us see it I am also happy. The shorter wait is most welcome though, and gives IMSA the chance to compete with more topical events. Shame about that classic, Lime Rock Park. I would love to see that come back. Don't make it too easy for the golf course pushers. please. Lime Rock is a mini-Nurburgring.
@@brmh1667lime rock park is one of my absolute favorite race tracks on this planet! People finally have to stand up against those fascist old bullies who want to destroy this amazing tracks! It’s already insane they aren’t allowed to race on Sundays! The USA is such an unfree country, where citizens have very few rights and the government has more laws and rules against them than any other first world country has! Nowhere in Europe some racist old people who moved there AFTER the track was build could forbid anything! That’s why you still have all the amazing tracks in Europe, because there citizens have real rights and freedom! In the USA it only counts how much money you have, the courts only care about the highest bidder, not the righteous solution. Look at what is happening to Laguna Seca, they are destroying it too! Or the best track the USA ever had, Riverside International Raceway! Some disgusting rich land developers bribed local politicians and built a stupid soulless mall on the racetrack! Never ever would this happen to a track in Europe! Fight back for your rights, the USA needs a complete overhaul of its courts, the police and the whole political system. The USA is NOT a democracy in its current state! It’s an oligarchy run by huge corporations and individual billionaires. Even on the local level the vast majority of politicians are rich people forming their communities in a way that it perfectly caters to only the rich. Us people that earn some decent money, but still have to work for it are seen as scum. The only reason those people want to interact with us is to manipulate us to shill for them and vote them. The USA is a failed state!
It's not convenient for just the Europeans, it's convenient for us Americans as well I love being able to catch the lives or the highlights. I have said it before, yalls coverage has made me a fan a big one at that. Thank you
What? You know that every WEC race is streamed on RUclips since many years ago? This is only the second IMSA race streamed on RUclips however. Before that you needed to watch it on the IMSA TV website.
@@rolux4853the difference is that wec doesnt stream basically worldwide unlike imsa , where I live I have to watch wec through Eurosport where we have 20 mins of ads every 20 mins of race
Could this endurance motor racing series get any better? Back on RUclips, with the same wonderful commentary pairing and all the manufacturers as competitive as ever! Another treat from Long Beach after last year's dramatic finish.
The reason the audio mix has such minimal ambient sound is because this is the audio that is also played over the loudspeakers / PA at the race track, and the last thing you need is vehicle engine sounds blasting over the PA while actual engines are blasting around the racetrack. It would be nice if they could have a separate videostream mix with some ambient sounds though.
Great race and getting it right away for free, this is why I love IMSA! I wish the WEC had some of these shorter races as well, watching several hours of endurance racing isn't always easy.
I smoked for 420 and then put on tv and watched this whole race. I’ve never seen this category but I really like it and I’m looking forward to Laguna seca
Check out the WEC as well, IMSA's older cousin. You're just in time for Le Mans, my friend. Just remember to manage your choof intake.. 24hrs is a long time. 😮💨😄
@@GQVERT There's a highlight package up of Imola. I'm travelling and can't watch the whole race yet but it looks like it was bonkers. Long Beach was the dullest IMSA race I've seen in ages. Welcome to endurance, brother. 🤙🏼
Great to see the Flying lizards back, shame it wasnt in a silver and red Porsche but i do hope they will stay i miss seeing this team. They were my Favorite team in the ALMS. Also Thanks IMSA you beauty ❤
I've been checking the IMSA youtube page for a video of this race for weeks. It's been hiding under the "Live" tab all this time. Now I know where to check next time. I'm in the US and the race isn't livestreamed on youtube here right? Maybe move the video under the "Videos" tab after the stream is over.
Don't forget to check out WEC, you're just in time to catch what will probably be the best Le Mans ever held. Welcome out from behind the Iron Curtain of F1. 😄🤙🏼
@@kartaltoth684 Insecure? Huh? I've watched the influx of F1 fans into our sport. They act like battered housewives who've finally escaped the circle of abuse. 😄
You don't have to pick just one. F1, WEC, WRC, driftmasters in Europe. IMSA, Indycar, American Rally Association Championship, Formula Drift and Nascar(some people don't realize that half of the schedule is road and street courses) in the states. Super GT, Super Formula, All Japan Rally Championship, and Formula Drift Japan in Japan. And that's just for cars! There's all the baja truck series and moto & dirt and everything else. It's a great time to be alive!
Thank you! Some parts of the race was like a public lobby for ACC. So you know you not going to do good in the race, your team mate is behind the leaders, a yellow flag would help out, so what do you do? 😁
You talking about the #25 BMW? That's what I was thinking too. It looked like he buried it softly in the tires on purpose. Though, Shea Adam said that it was trying to back out of the barrier but wasn't able to.
I feel as though IMSA's incident calls have been worse in '24 than before. Certainly I don't understand how the GT was to blame in the hairpin. What would any driver have done differently, surrounded by prototypes?
1:26:17 He should have stayed in his lane on the outside, behind the prototype he was following. Look at the angle he enters the corner at. It looks like he's trying to block one prototype Porsche while also dive-bombing the other Porsche prototype in front, which makes no sense. Besides that, he didn't brake soon enough so he hit the one he was dive-bombing. Then he just stops in the middle of the track, though he might have stalled. Now one thing that may explain it is that GTD cars seem to enter that corner differently than the prototypes. Maybe the GTD's just can't take that same outside line, swinging out wide like the prototypes do. I don't think that's the case though.
Will things ever go back to real sports car driving? Id like to see the "sports" car factories develop manual transmissions again ... Make the races more driver challenging,again ... Like the good ol days
Sorry guys, this was probably the most boring Long Beach race I've seen in a long time, probably can't always ensure good battles eh....next time guys...😏
What a lousy race. IMSA need to stay clear of street races, I don't care how "historic" or scenic Long Beach is. There was no passing, half of the laps run under yellow, lots of collateral damage, no strategy, no LMP2, etc.
Hindoff is just horrid at calling a race. Mixes car numbers, gets lost, constantly hammering on off-topic, and just generally obnoxious. Sell-by date has passed.
20:55 Race start
Thank you so much

@rolux4853 WEC streams the races a few weeks after the race. IMSA on the other hand is LIVE. At least IMSA TV was free. Unlike WEC...
I'm in the UK so i'm loving being able to watch the west-coast races the next morning! thanks!
Yeh same here
Thanks a lot IMSA!!!... Greetings form Lima, Perú 😎🏁👍

Thanks for the brilliant coverage! Shea Adam's analysis is absolutely banging
Those Cadillacs sure to make a glorious noise while tearing down the front straight.
Thanks IMSA!
Thank you IMSA for the content!
Is there any chance to get 60 fps version later like before? Watching this 30 fps version isn't good for my head without smooth motion.

The track/car audio was a bit low in this upload for some reason.
Please learn from WEC and include the manufacturer logo alongside the driver name and car number for the leaderboards.
Those cars look so amazing. 😎
I can't wait to see this in person at Laguna Seca in a couple weeks. 🤯
Thank you IMSA, Greattins from Argentina
Awesome coverage boyz.
Can't hear the cars at all, commentary is too loud or something?
I noticed this too. Sound is normally phenomenal but this broadcast sounded like it was playing on a clock radio. 🤷🏻♂️
Cadillac. On top. And the service vehicle for Rolex 24 was the new Black Wing 💪🏽
IMSA 😁
Street Racing, lets go.
I am watching from the Netherlands to IMSA.

camera work could've been better
Jordan Taylor, please go back to Corvette !!!
the comments is so loud ,the cars so calm...please change this..terrible soundmix
👏👏👏 IMSA
I have a feeling that Cadillac might win the championship again this year, but with the pairing of Bourdais and Renger
awesome
cadillac 1-2, let’s goooo 🎉!
great👍 race.

Where's the engine sound?? So quiet
Use some headphones 🎧, the Caddy's sounded so good
Agree, sound used to be better balanced, especially at Long Beach with the barriers reflecting the sound!
I noticed this as well, sound on IMSA broadcasts is normally phenomenal. This one sounded like it was mastered in a tin can. Hopefully a one-off.
please imsa, commentators speech not so loud..motor nois is so quiet
I made a racing playlist 😀
I guess Adelson wanted to hit the beach early. How tf do you run into that mclaren like that?!
Why no podium ceremony
Why pitlane is so loooong?
Will things ever go back to real sports car driving? Id like to see the "sports" car factories develop manual transmissions again ... Make the races more driver challenging,again ... Like the good ol days
From a SCCA guy to IMSA : if you can’t hear the prototype cars it isn’t any fun to watch.
The pace difference for Cadillac between wec and imsa is kinda crazy. Like why is the wec car so much slower comparatively
It isn't. The WEC drivers just like to hit things with the only car.
Ford factory is missing.
Nevermind

Puh tough luck for bmw. They had the best pace but bad luck and maybe not the best strategy struck them
Sorry, but WEC at Imola was wayyyyy more exciting than this!
Dry sprint race on a street circuit compared to 6hrs of Imola with rain.. not a fair fight.
I fully agree
Thank you IMSA....greetings from Thailand!

You talk too much, especially to say unnecessary things. In addition, the sound is WAY too loud for your eyes, we only hear that and it's painful.
