Video: Sebring 12 hour – why everyone needs to go one day

12th April 2017

Pilgrimage-level journeys in motorsport: The staple races in various disciplines in motor racing that anyone with a quart of high-octane in their veins has to go to. Le Mans 24? Monaco Grand Prix? Rally GB? All are up there.

May we at this point make a wholehearted bid for the 12 Hours of Sebring as one of those essential go-to races? Just take a look at the video above, showing highlights of the 2017 edition of the race. To anyone that says endurance racing isn’t what it was, just look at the quintessential badges going toe to toe. Corvette vs Porsche 911 vs Ford GT vs Ferrari. As if to add to the magic, as an army of bouncing headlights continue their assault on Sebring’s concrete, the close-by Cape Canaveral launches a rocket into the night. It’s the stuff of legend, and definitely worth the trip one day.
