Kevin Turner sits with Gary Watkins and Haydn Cobb to review the 2024 World Endurance Championship season. In the studio, the trio discuss whether 2024 was the year the "Golden Age" of Sportscars truly arrived as Toyota was joined in the winner's circle by Ferrari and Porsche, and how the German manufacturer had such a consistent season, and of course, the Balance of Performance that shapes the series. Joining us to bring his perspective on the year is 2024 World Champion Kevin Estre, who talks about how Porsche's difficult 2023 set them up for this year's success, why they weren't able to replicate that form into the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and his aspirations to win IMSA's 24 Hours of Daytona in January. There's also a discussion on the other teams and where they stand, such as BMW knocking on the door in Fuji, Peugeot's new car not really working as planned, the coming and going of Lamborghini and Isotta, and the future as Aston Martin and Genesis prepare to enter the Hypercar class.
