So grateful these full race replays are available for free on CZcams! Thank you IMSA!
Thanks for the quick upload, IMSA - missed it live!
spettacolare queste gare in america ,grazie a chi le carica ....
Thank you for the video.
thx IMSA. congrats to all the winners. thx to the commentators n all the track marshals n officials.
The C8.R is tailor-made for VIR, one of the main tracks it did testing on
Highlights and Observations:
1. Corvette Racing getting their second win of the season closing the points gap.
2. What a debut for Roxie to come in sixth in GTD. Also there was a guy dressed in a pink T-Rex costume to promote the car.
3. Sheena Monk has done well jumping from the Michelin Pilot Challenge series. Finish in the top 10. Also being apart of the only female duo with Katherine Legge on the field.
Go Corvette, after 3 seasons it must be the quickest it has ever been since 2020.
Some very solid performance from the McLaren 720S, if not for that mechanic....those German battles during the very last lap never get boring.
What a great event and those aerial shots at the end were just tops!
Corvette for the win! Whooo! Thanks for the upload IMSA!

congrats to corvette & paul miller ftw 🙌
thx for posting but CZcams doesn't consider 720p as HD anymore. Probably long past time for an upgrade to 1080p
Been looking forward to this. 👍😎🚗
Vassar Sullivan RC-F Lexus Great Run!!! 👍🏿 😎
Something that just works. Repurposing old tires for use as barriers. They should be everywhere. As always love watching this series. Thanks for posting
This was an amazing event , I enjoyed the fan grid walk !!
Congratulations to Corvette Racing. I saw them win at Le mans this year. A well deserved success.
All the cars being on the same lap at the end of 2 hours and 40 minutes is a pretty decent BOP.I think the Aston Martin was a little down on power but at the beginning of the season they were getting the breaks.I`m just surprised that the Lexus and Corvette were so even considering how bad IMSA has been penalizing Corvette`s great drivers.
Ty for posting!
Simply Amazing!!!!!!
This was another amazing awesome race from start to finish. VIR is a very fast track that continues to put on great racing.
Great racing!
This is gonna be good. Thanks for the post
Lovely upload
Great interview of the winners of team Corvette Racing is just too bad we didn't get to see it cameraman was too busy looking at cars getting Towed There is Some aerial footage of the track from a plane of the entire track, but not the winners what a shame Great job guys 👏👏👏👏
I never knew about this track lol. Nice fast track.
TEAM CORVETTE BABY!!! 🏁🏁
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Love VIR
You’ve got this.
I’m sure it’s going to be monster with 1400+ hp
Was there, it was great. Shame we didnt have GTP there. I think they would work
Well done Corvette
Really looking forward to watching this then the youtube short about corvette victory really messed that up. 😢
I'm married to IMSA!🥳🎉 Can we have the announcers explain the race classes and car specs for the noobs and novice spectators? Thanks IMSA 😘
I would love that!

Curse of the commentator. Jeremy “it won’t rain ti’ll after the race.” The weather responds and it immediately starts to rain. 😂
When In the race did it happen?
Huh? it only briefly sprinkled. I don't think Jeremy was even there. He was calling the race remotely - he kept asking Shae for weather update on the track. She was the only person on-site.
@@The_Board_Game_Brothersa light sprinkling is still rain.
@@BlitzMekanika when in the race? Middle, late, or near end?
"No Super Mario Speedup" LMAOOOO
I love how Bibendum the Michelin man just casually waves the green flag. That made me smile.
Why did the intro show a chicane in the back straight?
So does road Atlanta still exist and when will it be released on Forza motor sport
Matam video aku suka video bang semang aku mendung ari indonesia
Corvette always wins 🥳🎉

You think the people who run the track would eventually realize that if the cars in the dirt on every corner, the track is too narrow for high performance racing. The layout is good, but it's like their racing on golf cart paths, rubbish.
The track is as wide as any normal track… not sure what you’re on. It’s the track’s fault drivers run wide sometimes into the grass? You’d rather have a Tilke track where drivers don’t have to stay on the course?

Shae Adam is best in racing broadcast world by far, and has been for over a decade.
I've been to Mid-Ohio, Watkins Glen, Daytona 24Hr, Road America, Sebring and this track is the absolute WORST for fan viewing. Holy crap... sight lines are horrible, how about investing in some fan amenities like more bleachers towards the esses and more viewing areas near the old oak area. There's a reason why on TV you think no one is there - no fan viewing area!!
You may want to contact the track directly to provide them your feedback: info@VIRnow.com
Thanks!
@@imsaofficial Thanks for the contact info. I will reach out to them. Such a shame for such a beautiful facility otherwise.
sure put big ugly bleachers everywhere and ruin the beautiful countryside...... there are plenty of good viewing spots without them. consider standing at them or bringing a chair.
@@BlackMan614I agree it could be better but the corners you can access easily: first couple of turns, Oak Tree, top of the rollercoaster are all such good corners that they make up for any other areas the track is lacking. Daytona is a boring track to watch a race at. Sebring is unique but not nearly as good as VIR because it also lacks elevation change.
Would have been better live streamed. Just not the same after the fact, probably because I know who won. All this lock out nonsense with advertisers is lame. Sponsorship all over the cars, all over the track and we cant find a compromise to live stream and broadcast TV?? I have watched a lot more SRO GT America this year than IMSA.
Every IMSA race is livestreamed. What are you on about?
The talent in SRO America is worse than some club racing in the SCCA
I'm a little disappointed in Corvette Racing moving to the Ferrari knockoff platform. Maybe they should have renamed the model. A real Corvette sports a front-engine V8.
Any nominees for model name? "Chevy LemansGT" maybe?
You obviously don't agree with the developer of "Corvette" Zorin, Mitchell along with DeLorean that designed, developed, desired the mid-engine "Corvette" for the C2, and proposed C3, but not accepted. Also Porsche, BMW, McLaren, others use a mid-engine vehicle within GT class along with certainly all LMP classes. mid-engine has been the best within Indy, F1, F3, F2000, LeMans, open wheel, closed wheel for many decades, nearly 60 years.
The next opportunity was the C4, which was delayed, the same timing as their first mid-engine vehicle the Pontiac Fiero. GM also block the mid-engine Corvette for Gen 4, and reduced the Fiero Sports car, roadster to a mere 'sporty' roadster. The later Fiero GT with their smaller 2.8 L V6 has better suspension as the Corvette C4, with the improved power. The common 3.8 L V-6 3800 SC swap enables the vehicle to be very useful. Some also swap into it a 5.3 L LS4 along with Turbocharger(s) for the best performance. Have seen one individual swap with a Corvette LT-1 for more power yet.
It's not up to crybabies on the internet to decide what a Corvette is. It's up to Chevrolet. Get over yourself.
I hate how ALL motorsport cameras change to another camera RIGHT WHEN the cars are being viewed on the perfect angle showing the brutality of speed and traction. It seems like all live cameras are the same... a pivoting camera on an angle, showing what could essentially be the same the same boring corner over and over again. How about setting up more static cameras in areas for example the initial part of a high speed corner facing the direction the cars are traveling as they blow on by the camera on the limits of traction...Or maybe a static camera on turn 5 facing towards Snake showing the rears of the cars as they fly into and continue into Snake. There was a camera there during this broadcast, but the camera changed so fast the Mercedes didn't even have a chance to get its rear tires past the apex of the corner before the camera switched back to generic boring pivot camera again.😂
IMSA has shots of great angles, but they're taken by a photographer and uploaded as youtube shorts... not a part of the actual live race coverage.
