Absolutely incredible skill. Doing this for over a half hour in the pouring rain with a fast car gaining on him, and he was still posting very competitive lap times while saving an immense amount of fuel/energy.
One of the best final stints I have ever seen. Unbelievable job, Nicklas. The amount of fuel saving and battery harvesting for the last 45 minutes was truly unbelievable. Driving on a wet track, saving fuel, trying to win Le Mans and still posting very competitive lap times under excruciating pressure. Unreal. Listen to the amount of lift and coasting on this lap and precise gear changes in and out of the corners for optimal management.
Nielsen's last two stints in the wet were magical: pushing hard in mixed conditions, managing traffic, that close shave with the wall in the Porsche curves, all of that while saving enough fuel to end the race with 2% energy remaining. A new star is born
I was watching both onboards at the same time. It was epic and very emotional. Not only Nielsen was crying, Pechito Lopez too, and that hit close home because he's an Argentinian like me. Seeing him fight until the end made us very proud. He gave it all like a warrior, both drivers did.

With this Victory, there are only 9 points between the top 3 cars in the WEC standings...the battle in Brazil next month will likely be intense... hopefully we can see another car manufacturer win it, but it's unlikely, Ferrari, Toyota and Porsche are too strong now
But Caddy, Peugeot and Lambo showed good things in LeMans, if they get a few things right in their upgrades and the big ones drops the ball they'll have a chance..slim, but they are there
@@vvevvevvvv Last year Ferrari didn't have the best car. They won at Le Mans also due to luck. This year they didn't already won Imola and Spa due to bad luck, and risked to not win Le Mans just due to the weather.

I probably estimate at least 3 consecutive days (more or less) before something goes wrong. Let's say we still use the Circuit de la Sarthe track for testing and we put the 499P to its knees by driving for 3 days straight. Always on the limit and pushing it as if it's an actual race. My hunch is that the cooling system might fail first, then brake discs/pads/fluid, then the transmission. Not exactly in order but something like that would fail if we push a LM Hypercar to it's absolute limits.
Ferrari win Monaco and Le Mans in the same year. There is still time to win F1 and WEC titles, too. This could be a year to remember if they finally sort out the strategy issues and capitalize on their cars’ performance.
Incredible focus literally until he crossed the line. Waited until it was 101% complete before celebrating. Absolute steel mentality from these drivers.
It was an absolutely legendary Le Mans 24 this year, I haven't been this hyped and this entertained by a race in a long long time. Honestly I wanted Toyota to win especially the #7 which was an underdog all race, and it's annoying how lucky the #50 got, if they were forced to fix the door 1 lap earlier they would not have made it to the end on only 1 stop, but hey that's racing, and Nielsen still had to put in a legendary performance to make this happen. I'm hoping Cadillac can finally pull their shit together sometime though.
This is back to back years correct last year was it 50 years and this year 51 years of something Idk if its Ferrari being in the LeMans Series or how long they've not won it in, but I know they made a livery that they were using today to honor 50 years of something regardless good too see them win again
Montreal GP is irrelevant, this #50 car deserved a win after numerous poles and great performances, especially after such an unlucky red flag at spa 4 weeks ago
We still lead the championship, onwards to Brazil. Having competitors like Toyota and Ferrari make any success so much better, hopefully they all stay for as long as possible.
@@koraxi8958 Peugeot had been BOPed heavily because the car was new and the organization didn't want someone bringing a "magic" car just to win Le Mans. Next race it will probably have more favorable settings.

Yep, finished with 2% left which shows how much cutting it fine it was. Another lap and the Toyota probably wins. Very tense final hour or so

I've passed the last half an hour of the race on that camera car, fearing for a spin at every corner.
The nightmare that always terrorizes a Ferrari fan. I feel you.
I was hoping 😂
The S🅱️inalla finally helped Ferrari
This is the first time I got emotional watching Le Mans. This last lap alone should be a movie, feels unreal

A new star is born
he drove as if his whole life's purpose were those last two stints. truely phenomenal.
he was so impressive, absolutely amazing
Nielsens performance needs to be talked about more
massive respect. wow. The whole team, incredible.
Even better than Tom Kristensen.
Amazing moment for a Ferrari fan after Montreal GP lol
Me, a ferrari fan: YEAAAAA
I'm a Ferrari fan. And I’ll be honest, such contrasts evoke unrealistic emotions... Forza Ferrari!
No need to remind us of terrible things, thank you
@@waylanderjzx i feel you bro

Second victory in the second year, I cried too, Ferrari is something special, impossible to explain. Grazie Ferrari, our heart is red.

Horacio Pagani is also from argentina. And he makes the BEST cars
I watched him and I'm truly happy for him. Nice job Ferrari. Thank you so much FIA WEC!
Love the passion that Ferrari brings to every level of racing. When a Ferrari wins there's a little extra that's worth cheering.
GT7 or ACC should have a patch for WEC! Honest it got me hooked! Cannot wait for the next race!

It seems like Ferrari is only interested in winning the 24 Hours of le Mans. It brings the most hype.

I wonder how far these cars could actually race before failing? They’re so complex with the hybrid systems etc, incredible engineering.
you could go a decent amount of distance on the electrical motor, however you'd be disqualified because you can't finish the race at 0% energy.
An Alpine? Not so far.

Varias horas he pasado viendo estas increíbles 24 H de Le Mans, fueron emocionantes, el #50 llegó con sólo el 2% de combustible. ¡Forza Ferrari!
Ci Siamo Commossi Anche Noi...Eravamo li con voi... L'ultimo Giro...il più lungo...Siete Grandi Forza Ferrari ❤
Fantastic, super super fantastic . Thank you Ferrari, thank you Le Mans .....
Les relais de Nicklas sous la pluie en pneus slicks sont incroyable
Una imagen vale mas que mil palabras!!! Felicitaciones Ferraristas!!! 🍻
Merci de nous faire partager ce tour à bord de la FERRARI 😍😍
How awesome it must be to drive these beast hypercars. Incredible.
It was incredible to see how Nielsen had the ability to save fuel
Ferrari ❤
So great this achievement. We share the same emotion around the circuit.
I love how he doesn't celebrate until the car is over the finish line...
I was on the edge of my seat watching his fuel drop more and more as he get closer and closer to the finish
Wow, great to be able to come along!
That is some serious lift and coast
Bravo!
Last year Ferrari 51 won. This year Ferrari 50 won. Amazing job Ferrari. ❤
And he finished with what 2% left in the tank? It really was a now or never ending
Forza Ferrari!
Sweet tears ❤🎉
My City , my Race , My Heroes ❤❤❤❤❤❤🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵
Amazing and emotional race, Ferrari always return, Forza Ferrari ⚽️💯🔝💪

2% energy, 98% sheer will
you can really hear the car boosting but only at higher speeds and recoup energy on braking. Thats amazing
