No worries mate.
It may not be a vintage time for Le Mans and endurance racing in general, but it's still the great festival of motorsport and deserving of a thread.

Yeah, it definitely fits in with their image. I'll be rooting for them once again.

Sweet. I have Motortrend on Sling, bring on the 24 hours.
Le Mans weekend is honestly the best sports weekend of the year. It almost always coincides with a major world soccer tournament (Women's World Cup and Copa America this year). Good-bye sleep.
Excellent OP, ED.

There have been live streams in the past from specific teams, but not the official broadcast coverage. The WEC/Le Mans App does have live streaming without commentary using the official broadcast feed.
In Europe, Eurosport covers the whole 24 Hours.
Unfortunately, coverage of Le Mans outside of Europe is pretty limited.
I'm in the USA and finding any coverage of the 24H is... difficult.
I think the Eurosport app works from the us.
Edit: sorry, wrong info. Apparently it only works through vpn
Do a free trial of a VPN and subscribe to Eurosport for the weekend. I did that a couple of years ago and it was good. Only negative was I couldn't multi-task and play games on my other monitor. If that doesn't apply to you look it up and give it a try.

Will there still be ads every 10-15 minutes without even the split screen broadcast? Will they still force viewers to jump back and forth between the two channels to avoid those useless studio parts?

For US folk, Motortrend will have live coverage of Le Mans, and the on-demand service is available on a free 14 day trial.

Not unless their cars break down and lose 15 laps or more.
In all honesty I'd watch that, like a couple years ago when we risked an LMP2 winning overall. Have the Toyotas suffer MAJOR car trouble, lose like 90 minutes or something, then see them push insanely hard for the entire 24 hours in the hopes that they can get the leaders back.
Not gonna happen but it would be entertaining at least. As it stands, the Toyotas can lap several seconds slower than required to save the car and still comfortably put several laps on the best LMP2.

2 in a row let's go. Hope the other Toyota wins this year. The top category will hopefully get a boost soon. GTs is where its at.

Wow, this is a really informative OT. I've never watched Le Mans before, but now my interest is piqued.

It would be a fantastic way for André Lotterer to get his fourth victory at Le Mans.
Rebellion's art car liveries aren't for everyone, but I like what they're doing with it. After the complaints a few years ago about how all the LMP1 cars looked the same livery-wise, it's refreshing.

There's nothing quite like Le Mans during the night shift.
Love dusk and dawn at Sarthe. Beautiful.

Oh man, you know Jonny Adam? That's awesome. He is a pretty great driver.
Yep went to school together. Really nice guy, pretty quiet but sound. His Dad owns the local go kart track which will come as a surprise to no-one lol.
