WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain 2024 Review: Toyota Steals Title On Dramatic Finish

It was a furious charge at the end of the race from Sebastien Buemi that led the #8 Toyota Gazoo Racing team of himself, Brendon Hartley, and Ryo Hirakawa to not only take a dramatic victory at WEC's Championship finale at the 8 Hours of Bahrain but also winning the Manufacturer's Championship in the process, preventing a clean sweep of the titles for Porsche.

Kevin Turner and Gary Watkins sit down for the last time this season and discuss the thrilling finale that decided the race. The duo also talks about the crowning of the Drivers Champions in Porsche's #6 crew of Andre Lotterer, Kevin Estre, and Laurens Vanthoor and the shock demotion of Ferrari off the podium for a bizarre rule breach on tyres used over the weekend, promoting Peugeot onto the podium as a result.

There's also the latest news on the reports that Lamborghini could be scaling back their Sportscar commitments in 2025 with rumours of an IMSA switch imminent, as well as a full review of LMGT3 as the #55 AF Corse Ferrari team took victory.
