This kid needs to calm down or will he have a hard crash someday. Green hell is no joke.

Lots of people that aren't Max Verstappen have crashed hard. I think he drove well.

Congrats to Winward, commiserations to all Dutch people.

Aston Martin absolutely robbed there at the end.

BMW M3 Touring better than a Formula 1 champion in an AMG, who'd have thought.

edit: Good to seem Maxime Martin on the top step finally.

The Verstappen race car took to the track for the final lap in celebration.

MAD max already said he’s coming back next year.

Le Mans and the Nürburgring have one ting in Common, you can’t win them, they let you win instead.

And another thing, next year, Mercedes AMG arrives with the Tracksport.

Congratulations to AMG what a proper send off, of the AMG GT.

Even in the closing stages, Mercedes-AMG Team RAVENOL remained flawless despite changeable weather conditions and a few incidents, crossing the finish line in commanding fashion after 24 hours and 5 minutes 27 seconds, having completed 156 laps.

In total, the two Mercedes-AMG Performance Teams led for 129 laps.

With four hours to go, Lucas Auer (AUT), Jules Gounon (AND), Daniel Juncadella (ESP), and Max Verstappen (NED) were initially forced to retire the #3 car from Mercedes-AMG Team Verstappen Racing due to a faulty driveshaft. The car rejoined the race for the final lap and was classified in 37th place.
