Video: Incredible GTE racers at Le Mans 2014

The great thing about the last ten, or even 20 years, is that we’ve all had cameras in our pockets. It means we can jump back in time whenever we like to re-experience special moments captured by ourselves, or others. That’s how we’ve come to this, a spectator’s POV at Tertre Rouge at Le Mans 2014, as the cars spear off down the straight.

Phones and camcorders were actually pretty good back then, so we’re taken back in delightful detail, to GTE’s last naturally-aspirated era, with Ferrari 458 GT2s, early Porsche 991 RSRs, Corvette C7.Rs and more, as LMP machinery battles to squirrel around them. If the point of these videos we share is to lose yourself for a bit, well, this is perfection. Le Mans 2024, Tertre Rouge, bliss. Soak it up and enjoy.
