The question arises. Truly. These two men dazzled this edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans with their talent, race management, and offensive strategy.<\/p>\n
Starting last in the Hypercar category, K\u00e9vin Estre completed the first stint of the year. Possibly of the decade. In just one lap, the driver of the #6 Porsche climbed to 16th place and handed the car over to his teammates in 3rd place after two hours of racing.<\/p>\n
After flawless management, the trio of the reigning world champion car managed to hold off the Ferraris that were, however, faster. What benefited the Stuttgart brand were the numerous mistakes made by the Maranello firm.<\/p>\n
At the end of the race, as the victory was being contested between the three Ferraris and the Porsche #6, K\u00e9vin Estre took the wheel and drove a series of fast laps. However, the pace of the #83 did not allow him to come back and claim the most significant victory of the season.<\/p>\n
K\u00e9vin Estre, whether in traffic or on a clear track, was perfect. His only regret was being disqualified from qualifying, because with fewer cars to overtake, he would have been in front. Porsche’s 20th victory in Le Mans will have to wait.<\/p>\n
And Robert Kubica in all this? The Pole was very clean throughout the event, he didn’t attempt any desperate maneuvers. Sometimes slightly distanced, the Ferrari #83 managed to regain contact with the leading trio.<\/p>\n
While he was not supposed to overtake the two official Scuderia cars, he took advantage of their misfortunes and especially their mistakes. Then leading, Alessandro Pier Guidi, in the #51, made a mistake he shouldn’t have made a few hours before the end. While entering the pit lane, he spun and lost the lead of the race.<\/p>\n
