I'd have to agree with that Toyota #9 drag it back to the pits without quite making it, that moment when the team is in front of the garage all ready and he opens the door, shuts the systems off and the lights go off - it was like greek tragedy. That even beat the epic Kobayashi #7 shutdown after he got out how the crowd just goes crazy and cheers him on as he walks away from the dead car. Amazing the emotion.

Since you mentioned the sound of the Aston and Corvette, both epic, one has to also mention that that 911 RSR 2017 was an absolute blast to listen to whenever it went by. Just the purest Porsche Boxer sound in a looong time!
Looks wise well...that's a different story.

When Porsche #1 broke.
We'll, there is something deeply human in how Capilleire explained his thumbs-up gesture which is supposed to have been the ultimate cause for the eventual demise of Kobayashi's car:
"It was a spontaneous encouragement mark as it happens between pilots."
This was simply the best race I have ever seen, reminded me of the heydays of F1.
