Ferrari emerged victorious at the 93rd running of the Le Mans 24 Hours with their satellite #83 entry driven by Phil Hanson, Robert Kubica, and Yifei Ye.
Although Ferrari came close to monopolizing the podium at La Sarthe, the #6 Porsche managed to outpace their sister #50 and #51 cars, preventing a complete Ferrari sweep.
The race was primarily a close battle between Ferrari and Porsche, with the eventual winner benefiting greatly from a mid-race safety car period that helped nullify their earlier mistakes.
The Cadillac Jota cars that started strong on the grid quickly lost ground due to their lack of top speed, while Porsche proved their competitiveness by climbing up the ranks following disqualification from qualifying due to being underweight.
Porsche’s struggle with penalties and Ferrari’s momentary setbacks led to a seesaw battle for the lead, ultimately resulting in Ye’s #83 Ferrari overtaking the #8 Toyota and securing a significant lead by early morning.
The race saw various twists and turns, including multiple penalties and mishaps that kept the competition fierce till the very end.
