If you love the 24 Hours of Le Mans, you’ll definitely watch this 25-minute long video documentary about the world’s toughest endurance race.
Released by Michelin and Porsche, the film titled “We are racers” follows Porsche’s teams during the first round of the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship at Silverstone and then at Spa-Francorchamps, the final race before the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Towards the end, the video also includes highlights from last year’s race.
Seen through the eyes of drivers, technicians, engineers and mechanics, the world of endurance racing is truly fascinating.
Stars like Porsche’s Mark Webber, who is determined to finish the race this year after 2014’s DNF in the LMP1 category, or Patrick Dempsey, the GT amateur Porsche driver better known as Dr. Shepherd from Grey’s Anatomy, talk about what Le Mans means to them.
The documentary includes an interesting quote: “For us, winning is not only coming first, it’s getting out of the track knowing you couldn’t have done better.” If all of us applied this way of thinking in our lives, the world would definitely be a much better place.
