Porsche Crest 919 won its first race today!

Yeah Baby!

FIA WEC LIVE

"Mr Le Man's" also finished on the podium for Audi, his last race.

Quite the crash by Webber glad he's OK. Congrats to Porsche looking forward to next year. Sure wish they televised the WEC in the U.S. !

I'm happy for Porsche, and certainly they deserve a win, they've done well this season, but Webber's crash was fortunate in so far as it meant that the 919 of Jani didn't have to tangle with Davidson in the Toyota. On fresher tires, and as an accomplished sprint racer, I'm not confident Porsche would have held the lead if the race hadn't finished under the safety car.

Having said that, Porsche put in a great first season. I suspect that we will see amazing things next year from them. Congrats to the team and what an amazing racing series. The best racing series in the world, in my opinion.

No need for one. If you didn't pay for the online live coverage then you aren't going to be seeing it on TV. Last race came about a month later condensed from 6 hours to about 45 minutes of actual racing.
