Incredible!

I love the sound it makes! Like its straight out of a sci-fi movie.

[@fallinginthed33p]

James L. Walsh That's a helluva lot of regen charging going on every time the car slows down.

[@RolandDrehtRaeder]

car: cutting edge technology, on-board camera: potato ;-)

[@namer4059]

love the turbo v4/hybrid sound. with the regen, and the use of the electric engine, and the turbo v4 banging through the gears, it all comes together like a symphony

[@furkanordu2688]

if they display telemetry it would be so much more fun to watch.

[@SquirrelFromGradLife]

Cool to hear the hybrid system working

[@schralebaas]

Man those Porsche curve's are quick. And 249.3 km averege, damn..

[@Spartan168]

wow that entry into the first chicane down the mulsanne. insanity

[@DrBreezeAir]

Please tell me there's same footage in HD.

[@ericm333]

...should change name from Hybrid to Annihilator

[@PsynceFiction]

Damn ... those speeds are insane! :o

[@matiasmoneo8732]

Amazing Lap!

[@pitusi5894]

felicidades para Porsche por vuestra 18 victoria en le mans, ya habéis llegado a la mayoría de edad, siempre seréis los mejores fabricantes de automóviles deportivos bravo y ole.

[@FreedomForce100]

Isn't that awesome technology? When the car breakes at the entry of a curve, it engages a fly wheel which will help slow the car and also gain fast spinning speed. By the time the driver accelerates at the exit of the curve, we now have an ultra fast spinning wheel that the car engages on the front axle for additional power!
One of the key elements is the timing and automatic and switch from fly wheel engaged and disengaged, based on the driving phase (acceleration or breaking) and the real-time speed of the fly wheel: in acceleration, the flywheel is engaged only when its speed conversion is above the car's current speed. When breaking, the flywheel is engaged only when its speed conversion is below the car's current speed.

[@snviper]

It's actually an electric motor and battery hybrid system.

[@iuppiterzeus9663]

you are describing the technology audi used, porsche is using a lithium-ion battery ... still very impressive though

[@ryantrinh6067]

That's an awesome video, Porsche. Good luck on winning Le Mans 24 Hours. I'm on your side:)

[@collinthomas6288]

going through the porsche curves didn't look real. wow.

[@hankthompson7381]

WOW What a lap. Perfectly timed traffic. Had a tow down every straight. Beautiful.

[@giantman]

Best video you guys have ever uploaded 👍🏻

[@jockellis]

Boy, that didn't take long. Wish they'd made a movie of the 1924 pole position lap. You could have polished off a bag of popcorn during that somewhat slower drive.

[@LennardHartman]

Is the whining noise you hear, the electric motor putting down the power? And regenerating it when slowing down.

[@fallinginthed33p]

Lennard Hartman Sure is. It's the same sound you get in a hybrid or electric car on the road, but it's so much louder on these race hybrids.

[@Naroomsc2]

Brake so late x) What a nice drive :)

[@마이미니라이프]

Wow...very exciting!!!

[@kristy77a]

Viewed that twice. Fantastic!

[@NickG40]

Will it be win #18 this year? We'll find out 3 PM (local time) this Sunday.

[@crsn891]

Those sounds though.

[@sparkride8997]

brutally😱

[@petiteCaprice]

Can anyone tell me why there's only two Porches, Audis and Toyotas? Restrictions?

[@HAWKbest]

Just perfect.

[@pjrebordao]

Godspeed Porsche !

[@louielambretta389]

In WEC you dont have to move out of the way even in qualifying?

[@GlennR0cks]

And the time was?

[@kevinwu8054]

about 3：16

[@3ric585]

Dat sound doe!

[@ryanh7240]

Amazing.

[@donphobos]

I would need to try this car on the motorway close to IKEA Bäckebol in Sweden. Maybe 2'o clock at night, so that traffic would not be heavy... :-)

[@IstVollOk]

awesome lap !

[@gta11121]

Amazing!!

[@RobertMartino98]

now u gotta break a 3:14 from Toyota now that's hard asf

[@MindCrime550]

charge .... boost .... overtake.... repeat. Oh and who's going to start making KERS systems for the street/consumer markets?

[@snviper]

Honda, Toyota, Ferrari, Porsche for starters. Or for the ultimate endgame of that technology get a Tesla.

[@rparker069]

absolute butter

[@MoJo-2977]

I hope U Will win

[@blitzercar4339]
