And still "people think renault built red bull cars" and they know lewis, vettel, alonso, raikkonen... Even button and max.
Ask people who won LeMans in 2018.
The answer is probably just "What?"
Theres no way LeMans is all of that mate.. its like indycar fans saying the Indy500 is the biggest and most important race of the planet or Nascar fans saying that the race in Charlotte (? I guess?) is the biggest race on the planet.

People know MERCEDES and Ferrari because of F1... People dont even know the word* "WEC". Sorry
Not trying to bashing u, mate. I dont speal english very well so that may have sounded rude. Not my intention
