Davy Jones barely lost the 96 Indy 500 coming in second to Lazier. A guy most racing fans never heard of almost won the Le Mans and Indy in the same year😮
Davy Jones was an awesome IMSA GTP driver. I saw him race back from 87-92 and I was a fan of the Castrol Jags along with his mighty XJR-14 in 1992. I honestly think he would've won the title if he didn't have some of the issues, he had plus a backup car like Toyota and Nissan had. I was a huge Geoff Brabham fan in that era but I always liked the Jaguars to.
Thank you for sharing this video with us 🙏. Very appreciated, Le Mans is just something special ❤. Love to find old footage of Le Mans racing between 1989-2008. Everything after 2008 is still fresh in memory 🤣
Have to remember a GT1 McLaren won the previous year, and the 911 GT1 seen in this race was a race car designed first and foremost, that was then made into a road car to be a homologated as a race car. Same principle as the many other GT1 cars (GT-One, CLK LM/GTR, F1 GTR LM, R390 and countless others)
I think because it is too old. RUclips doesn't have any data in it's database on Le Mans from 1996 (well it does now :-)) , so it's algorithm doesn't recognize what this video is.
Le Man race cars were so unique looking in the 90s.
try 1923
@@michaelireland7239 that too yes
Golden era in that regard.

Also came in 3rd in the 1983 British F3 Championship behind Ayrton Senna and Martin Brundle
Davey was a very rapid driver. He had some crashes, but mostly due to mechanical failure.

almost..
The Pilot sponsored F40 had an eventful race 😂
Thanks for posting .. great video. First time I’ve seen the 96 edition. Andrew Marriott does a great job here - what a cracking race !
Yes, fantastic, agree absolutely. But I'm pretty fond of Mount Panorama. You've done a great job with your film. Thank you.
Vintage year; great line up too 👍

Really bizarre that GT cars were at the front

Thank you!!

clarion skyline omg
Davy Jones almost won Indy the month before.
PORSCHE!!!!!!
Hope that those heartless bastards normal people call D*** Video don't take this down....
i hoped mclaren would win
1995
A very bland version of the Le Mans 24h. Basically a race of GT cars is not a worthy a race of this iconic stature.
Still better than the Hypershitcars with which the ACO has killed the sport now.
Not at all , my first Le Mans and I loved it
What?
