no race like Le Mans 1999, the mega career history forever and ever the best race of all time, magic, and eternal. 24 h le mans 1999, this race will forever be in the first position of eternity. the gold times yes the gold times...
"and the Audi Team can hardly believe their luck..!!!" first poduim finish.. it was what pushed Audi to improve their car and win 8 LeMans in the following 10 years.. well they could hardly believe their luck at LeMans 2009... they finally lost to Peugeot .. but LeMans 1999 is REALLY the race of the century.. all the dramas, last year Henri Pescorolo raced at age 56.. brilliant, just brilliant thanks for uploading..!
Well eventhough in '99, I was just 5 years old. Ten years already, and yet, the best 24 Hours of Le Mans race ever that I know. Hopefully in 2010, it would be much better. I miss those cars like BMW please, make a return to LMP. But whatever, I'm happy to see them racing in the GT2 class =)
It was such a shame Ukyo Katayama had that tyre burst. Otherwise his Toyota would have caught the leading BMW on the last lap, and it would have been 1969 all over again.
You guys know if it wasnt for the Rear Tire problems which was probably because of the power put out by the Toyota GT-ONE they would've finished probably 1-2-3 but defiently would've won.
This was the race of the century without a doubt, but I think that Le Mans 2011 will be as good as This, as many car makers showed interest is participating.
WOW Loved that race. Thnx for uploading. i was hoping GT-ONE would win but anyway he is still 2nd. mercedes CLR was good on the way but he went on flying. Damn so when is the next LeMans race?
Good vid. Did you see those Porsche's spin out, that's what happens when your riding rear wheel drive with rear mounted engines, all that weight and friction on those tires. Alright BMW and VIPER!
Porsche needs to build a modern day 962 to show these new diesels what's what. I mean, look at the 1994 Le Mans, where the updated Dauer 962 won overall despite basically being a 4 year old car based on a 14 year old design.
yeah totaly agree that bmw deserved to win.... but u gotta feel for toyota because martin brundles car had a tyre blow out when he was going at a rate.... and katayama tyre blew out only 20 sec behind the BMW... damn michelin...
the rules favours the diesel cars. porsche policy is only build petrol cars not diesels so we have to wait many years to see porsche teachs a lesson again in le mans
Didn’t win but 99% of people treat the GT-One as the honorary victor since the loss was not caused by mechanical or driver problems, but debris on the track.
Take away the tire punctures and Toyota has this race 1,2. #2 Toyota 1st, #3 second. The #1 had a gear box replacement and was unlikely to have made the podium

The BMW was a trooper. What a great race!
The aerial view of the cars is just amazing. Look at the speed of those cars, my god.
God damn that Panoz has wonderful sound
I love that BMW
this was an exciting race. Thanks for the upload
I was here this year in the stand above the pits, loved it my only time must go back!
To all drift fans: The Drift King is there on the podium. Keiichi Tsuchiya is part of the 2nd placed Toyota.

Nice. He refers to the straight after the Mulsanne as the Mercedes flying strip.
Hope in a BMW comeback in LMP1 class!
Yea i want to go back
2023
Who is this announcer? He's a total legend!
Audi finished podium in 1999...
Haven't finished off it since
hopefully a TS030 equipped with a hybrid engine will soon compete at Le mans
I hope, you enjoyed it.

1999 was the year of ultimate material destruction!

@jdb47games A shame indeed, Toyota was so close, damn that tire!
2018?
There is one every year...2010 will be 12th and 13th of June.
yeah totaly agree that bmw deserved to win.... but u gotta feel for toyota because martin brundles car had a tyre blow out when he was going at a rate.... and katayama tyre blew out only 20 sec behind the BMW... damn michelin...
Toyota it'amazing...!!
+Challenger Deep So is Honda.
Funny that Audi was happy with a 3rd place finish. That'd be horrifying now!
@Mvc2player Definately, the French Peugeot should not have being fighting the Audi alone, though they did win in 2009 by 908 HDI FAP.
weren't the cars incredibly expensive? lola is going to build a new B08/70 LMP1 coupe for 2008.
BMW V12 LMR the best

Yup . I read article about it a year ago but I not remembered where . It about Nissan preparation GT-R LM for participate Le Mans .
I heard Nissan will participate in Le Mans with new GT-R in the future in GT class .
Porsche already return but in America Le Mans Series......and i hope Nissan will come back someday.
日本のチカラもすごい！

And BMW's racing pedigree is still shit compared to most respectable manufacturers....but yeah.
Gt

H
