Endurance race

Of all the motorsports out there, endurance race is the genre I fell in love with. Naturally, it's the yearly 24 hour race at Le Mans I find the most interesting.

Motorsport history have a lot to tell, and the future have even more to tell. We are in exciting times: More females getting into motorsports, technical innovations surrounding alternative fuel, Hypercar category in WEC. Who knows where my interests in motorsports will lead me with all this excitement?

The most heartfelt moments...

We who have followed motorsports a few years have build up a few memories. Here are some of mine.

24 hours of Daytona 2022: The duel for first place between Jaminet and Vanthoor during the last laps of the race was epic! Jaminet won the duel and saved first place. Vanthoot lost the duel and an additional place, finishing in 3rd place.
