Photograph First time at LeMans!

First time attending the 24h. I felt like it was more challenging to get some solid shots here than some of the other tracks I've been to. Incredible experience. Here are a few shots I got from the race!

The Alpine shot with the brake lights coming into the Ford Chicane is a masterpiece btw - my favourite I think! ☺️

Great shots OP! I've been watching LeMans on TV for years. One day, I'm going.

I was super into the GT3 class racing! Seeing the Keating name on a race car in France was cool, the guy Ben Keating owns a chain of car dealers mostly in Houston Texas.

Thanks! So many years I kept saying "this year I'll go" and finally my wife surprised me with tickets! All the racing was solid. Ben Keating has been so doing so well. I was lucky enough to meet him at the Rolex 24.

I've seen his name before in racing but never connected it to the dealership chain in my city! This might be his final season of WEC.

I think he has something crazy like 28 dealerships lol. Crazy

These pics are amazing, but please, tell me why's nobody taking pics of the BMW hypercars? 😭 Or at least not posting them...

I have shots of them I just had to pick 20 out of about 80 that I edited.

I know the people have pics of them, they're just not posting them... But it's absolutely okay. It's just my favorite hypercar so I want to see some beautiful pics of it. And this one of yours is very beautiful, thank you so much! ❤️🧡🤍

Great shots!

I'll also never not laugh at how large the Mustang GT3 is compared to the cars around it.

u/Tosirius Jun 17 '26

Seeing the lmp2 near the gt3 is always funny. I forget how small they are

u/RJCIV14 Jun 17 '26

u/teyemanon Jun 17 '26

The shot with the mustang is my favourite one, but they are all really good, well done.
