Who needs DTS when you have Full Access
Very true
And Win the Weekend by Imsa
I love how series like MotoGP and WEC are coming up with their in-house production instead of outsourcing it to idiots like DTS. May this be the beginning of the fall of DTS
@@atharv468 dts is actually just to target american audience and its working .If f1 did any thing in house it would be in f1 tv behind a paywall
This is what DTS should have been. No unnecessary drama, no hyping up absolutely useless aspects, and no dramatic pauses from Will 'pause' Buxton. Anthony Davidson does everything right that Buxton does wrong and this makes Full Access that much more better to watch.
That sounds like how the Marvel Assembled 'making ofs' are on Disney Plus. Full of boring talking bits and barely any actual behind the scenes or the making of 😂
Really love the stewards figuring out penalty section, it's not stuff you see at all. Very good job, lovely Full Access episode.
Yes, rarely see the behind the scenes of those!
Yeah that was really cool to see
Just like WEC, Full Access gets better and better! How good were those onboard shots from the Hypercars at the race start. Still sad about the cruel finish for Peugeot but racing drama is second to none. Can't wait for Imola
this deserves 100's of thousands of views!
you’ll never guess
Good to see de vries smiling again. He’s definitely found a new home he’ll do well in WEC with Toyota.
Thank you FIA
That exchange between Kamui and Roger Penske was great. Class act from the both of them 👍🏼
True sportsmanship
Great team player there Buemi… I see he hasn’t changed since F1.
He stands out because nobody else in the paddock behaves that way. 😒
Love the behind-the-scenes footage!
This is really an actual Full Access literally everyone and this is a big step up from Full access from last year
need more gt3 coverage if youre going to spend so much effort creating this new class you might as well show it to the audience
This program is always a tribute to motorsports!!! I support this type of programs that show the reality of the competition and not "others" that are more showbiz than anything else!!!
Buemi is such a Karen, luckely he is balanced out by Ryo
He’s not a Karen just swiss
In FE he complains a lot I think
He is for sure but that man has talent
@@kidpagronprimsank05 he's been complaining since F1 and early WEC days.
He's had it easy for so long, now he has stiff competition the bubble has bust and he is suffering, maybe the penny has dropped and he realised he is not as good as he thought for all his wins.
First time watching Full Access and this is great! Thanks WEC for making it free as well!
Seeing buemi stressed out because he’s not on the shoe in #1 team anymore is very satisfying. I’m rooting for all teams except gr racing honestly. Glad to see Porsche where they ought to have been last year. Here’s to different manufacturers taking 1st place this year in races.
Its not that I want GR to win, but I've really been put off by the amount of negativity people have about toyota. They have worked their tail off for every result they have earned, and the ones who are new to WEC dont know that history, they kind of just see it as Red Bull with F1. I am a Ferrari and Peugeot fan, but I hate how people misunderstand Toyota. I will agree, Buemi does not look like fun to share a car with.
seing nyck de vries is so good even tho he didn't completed a whole year in f1
Bloody loved this video. I watched the whole race on KZhead then watching this was like it filled the gaps that you don’t see or hear in the race, great job keep em coming 👍🏻👍🏻
This whole format is amazing, proper fly on the wall stuff. It must have been a nightmare to organise and edit but it's totally worth it.
This is some high quality stuff. Thanks WEC team
This is what Drive to Survive should have been...
Le fait d'avoir des points de vu des TOUS les acteurs de la course, de la FIA jusq'aux pensées, vrai, des pilotes, fait de cette série de vidéos une de mes préférées
This is the most satisfying racing coverage I’ve ever seen. Lovely pacing, gorgeous photography, thoughtful commentary. Every championship has to boast but there is a legitimately sublime WOW factor happening. Brilliantly produced sport any way I look at it, topped off today with a :42 second teaser of Vettel testing the Porsche. Getting the boom mic in there is such an improvement in production quality, thanks for that!
5:34 - 6:10 Great teammates. Debating and explaining the ****** up, not arguing over it.
Man, i love Full Access so much. Seeing everbody up close and personal is so cool and that whole behind the scenes look is awesome. ❤
Now I have something to watch whiles I'm waiting for 12 hours of Sebring
the perfect dap 13:18
That was the most crisp dap I’ve seen im glad I wasn’t the only one who spotted it
Awesome! Onboard sections are just amazing🎉 sprint for 10hours! Love to see JB and AD together🇬🇧 2 thumbs up wec👍👍
When you can speak both french and english wec is perfect to follow ahah
Awesome video concept!!!! would be cool to have a few shots of actual/current standings throughout the race highlights so its easier to follow the story. but bloody awesome!!!
There's at least 1 to 2 minutes of solid DAPS. Love it
And the fact that they are all wishing good luck to each other. I love the camaraderie on the WEC paddock!
@@abalakrishnan4152 hell yes! I love that! Sadly Mic doesn’t speak French so he got left out of the Alpine convo lol
Yet another great episode, I'll take this Championship over F1 anyday!!
I started watching this after leave f1, and surprisingly this is way more interesting
yo this full access is the real deal. incredible insight.
This was excellent. Brilliant access and story telling. I look forward to more content like this!
Fantastic stuff, WEC! 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
Amazing video! I enjoyed it from start to finish! Just one thing, though: show us more GT3, please!
great watch! hoping to see more gt3 content next time :D
Guys those FA are getting better and better ! Amazing production there guys, keep pushing as they say !
who doesnt love WEC, the racing is soo good..cant wait for spa
Vale is true racer.
aaaamzing content!! more content like this is needed!
25:03 Seb turns into a hillbilly for one sentence. 😄
Once again excellent content!
Pleasant to here that much french! Very good behind the scenes. Keep up the good work FIA.
Fantastic production!
This is actually pretty awesome
I love how accessible Sportscar Racing is WEC & Imsa > F1
25:30: Fantastic showing a debrief!
Please keep these coming, they are awesome! Also, still feel bad for Peugeot, hope they'll come back in Imola.
The best documentary coverage of racing is back! What happened to team radio? Is it completely forbidden now? There's only the parts that were in the broadcast.
Seriously cool to see this. Really good insight
More GT3 coverage
no overdubs like Netflix garbage proper noise thanks WEC
Great ! Thank you. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Gutted for Peugeot still But please keep up this type of content guys, this is gold
After watching the full race, this is a great after-movie !
5:33: Buemi is pissed!!!! Goes off on Hartley!
so that is the team spirit in Toyota, wow.
Seb obviously forgot Monza last year when he screwed up in the race.
@@mattnolan2440the race where a 62 year old boomer didn't look in the mirrors and pulled out in front of Buemi?!
No Will Buxton? I’m in
Great stuff! Thx a lot.🎉
"Hey, Seb! I got you a cup of concrete so you can harden up, Princess!" ☕️👸🏼
Anthony is Will of WEC confirmed ;)
Terrific stuff the WEC is giving us.
This is like DTS but better, and for WEC! Nice.
I love WEC ❤.
Couldn’t imagine talking to Hartley that way ever.
A great behind the scenes coverage of the race that complements the actual race, great to have watched this and the race and hope we get this type of video for the full season.
@16:50 race start
I dreamed caddy could make the podium atleast. But it didn't :(
Devasted how f1 refused andretti cadillac. When teams have a time frame as to when they can start development for 2026 and they claim would not be competitive while that is basically the same as they did with Haas.
The relationship between Ganassi & GM has been described as 'fractured.' It's not a happy team right now, they really need a few podiums.
Caddy is doing fine, they're always pretty high in the grid, and 3rd place at 100 Le Mans is amazing achievement.
@@user-lb3hx6gb6o Oh, I'm a fan of their team and Laura does an incredible job. But morale is in thin supply and an outright victory would really go a long way is all.
They just need to field a second car. So many results thrown away by driver mistakes.
Kobayashi is a class act
he is also serving as the team principal after all, simultaneously as a driver
Not a lot of GT3 coverage huh ?
Shame really. I like the gt3
The Sebring pre-race coverage has greatly favoured the GTs, which has been great. 😊
Great mini film. Looking forward to the next round 👍
Honda pls put one car at Lemans this year! 🙇♂️🙇♂️
Probably next year, and probably under the Honda badge rather than Acura.
Such good content!
They should do this style of video, with last year's Le man race (100th anniversary) it would be amazing
I'm loving all the content this year!
Much better than DTS 😍😍😍😍
These are great. Thank you. You'll have to get a sperate team to do the gt3 now. So much going on these races. Wonderful insite into the paddock.
Thank you 👍
This is very fun and entertaining to watch! Love it
Thank you FIA-WEC
New season FA yeahhh
I see a lot of people complaining about Buemi's attitude and it is ironic that they forget that each person has his or her own temperament and that it has happened to all of us at some point, especially when there has been something at stake, now imagine how it must happen in races when you fight for a qualifying position or a victory. Buemi and his temperament at least is genuine, without any shyness, and it is something that should be valued in today's world of motorsport where most drivers try to be politically correct with everything they say and adopt a false golden retriever attitude.
Dude, glasses changed my life, get your eyes checked folks
Why so little gt3
Hell ya this is amazing.
That's the contents every fan want ❤
Sad to see almost no lmgt3 in the footage 😓
I already love this series ! Btw I always asked myself why the penalyties are given at random and unprecise, now I have the answer...
Vale ❤
Hope not be the season every porsche fan dreamed about. Let's hope we have many different manufacturers win in Hypercar, also in LMGT3.
Andretti Cadillac!!! F1
Thanks WEC, great stuff. Everybody’s nice except for Buemi, what a whiner
Absolutely nothing about the yellow Ferrari, which took 5th place. Pity. A very successful debut for #83
5:20
What a perfect start for PORSCHE in 2024!... Congrats !! Aufgeht`s for more...
Toyota didn't have the speed to complete at the front? They made them put so much weight in the car it might as well have been a boat.
Unreal bit of content, but ill say this. Anthony Davidson mentioned towards the end that Toyota and Ferrari were nowhere in this race, but that to me is mainly due to a heavily favoured bop to Porsche. Porsche also gather twice as much data as they run in imsa to. Peugeots wingless 9x8 should never really stand a chance of winning unless heavily favoured with bop(like it was in this race)as the regulations had changed which took anyway any major competitive edge in it having winning potential(Hence the new evo 9x8 being built like the rest of the cars to suit the current regulations.) Porsche really were always the ones to beat here imo. Hopefully the bop is abit more evenly spread and we can see more teams fighting for the overall.
Mick & Laila ❤❤
Can someone explain what a Bop is? Maybe a stupid question but im new to racing 😁
@33Avon88 “balance on performance” is mostly used on motorsport series that has different make & models. the cars r then modified to b equal cos when the vehicle came from the factory the cars have different performances. e.g GT3 regulations, the cars in GT3 must be modified to meet GT3 regulations so the drivers can have a close competition in skill not which team or driver has the better car like in F1. e.g 488 pista & huracan have different performance so both these cars can b modified to GT3 hence 488 GT3 & huracan GT3 evo to have equal performance & focus on driver skill than which car is better/faster. that’s y leagues like WEC, IMSA, GTWorld, super GT r more competitive & give closer racing (unpredicatble results). & y i think F1 is very repetitive nowadays. ur question isn’t stupid btw, no Q is stupid.
@@abcjelly Big up for this! 🤩 & yeah it's a shame that F1 is repetitive like it is, It sick to look at the highlights but you already know the outcome and also, I hate the fact that some drivers are paying for the seat 😶 & So I'm definitely going to look at other races in the future!
@@33Avon88 noice to hear 😁. true✅, i heard some drivers buy a seat to get into F1 but end up w/ a underperforming car, i think F1 doesn’t define a driver’s skill but the engineering competition behind it. imagine a rlly talented/skillful driver, who became champion in F2, F3, other leagues with equal performing cars etc. but when going to F1, ended up always last bcs of the team’s engineering flaws.
@@abcjelly yeah true, they don't always get the best performance car wish sometimes is demoralizing for them but yeah, Then you a billionaire (Idk if he is a billionaire but still) who bought Austin martin so his son can drive in it, and you just see he doesn't give a shit about anything... He isn't even doing a good job for a couple of seasons and yet his seat will remain UNTIL he doesn't want to race anymore or until the sponsor are going to put more pressure on it. He ain't a bad driver but just not for F1 :/ It's like you said, Some real legends are good drivers but it's the never ending story of mechanical lack or mistakes. I think it's hard for the ones working on the back each time to keep the spirit up. But yeah, it's good money i guess..
