[Video] Blasting Le Mans at night with Fernando Alonso | GRR
We’re approaching the winter solstice, with nights at their longest and seemingly darkest. And while much of the driving we do now is in the pitch black, its pales in comparison to this…
Join double F1 champion and double Le Mans winner Fernando Alonso onboard his Toyota TS050 during the 2019 Le Mans 24hr, as he puts in a mindblowing stint through the night.
When the video starts, the race has already been running for 12 hours, with the Spaniard leaving the pits and launching into lap 190. Sharing the drive with teammates Sébastien Buemi and Kazuki Nakajima, Alonso remained consistent and blisteringly fast, contributing greatly to their overall victory.
We’re not going to annotate the whole three hours, but we will say this: put some beers in the fridge and some time aside, and prepare yourself for a crazy ride….
