That was cool... he passed a lot of 935s and RSRs.

There's nothing else on the racetrack! It's like Porsche rented La Sarthe for a test!
I know for a fact that it was the 70's when I fell for the charms of the Germans. I wonder if I would again if I was in my formative years in the 21st century.

If that was shot this week, the track would be melting and cracking under the weight of climate change. Even rail lines were damaged this week in France. Really sad.

Great footage. Given the conditions and lack of traffic I would guess taken during practice. Plus, Porsche wouldn't have had a camera on a race car in a race.
Love the Mulsane without Chicanes.. Blowing by 180mph RSR's or 934's while hitting 220+ in the 936.
