GP Explorer 3: 200,000+ people came to see 24 French influencers race real Formula 4 cars at Le Mans

The third edition of GP Explorer, organised by Squeezie (France’s biggest YouTuber), drew over 200,000 people on site, 1.4 million on Twitch, and more than 1 million on TV.

The weekend had a bit of everything: two days of qualifying and the main race (like a sprint weekend), plus a festival on Friday.

Before the race on Sunday, the Patrouille de France flew over the track, Alpine showed up with one of their old F1 cars and their current Le Mans Hypercar, and Sylvain (another French YouTuber) drove the 1000tipla, a Fiat Multipla tuned to over 1,000 hp.

This edition also brought in a team of Spanish YouTubers and an American team.

It was a crazy week-end to watch, with still some serious fights on track, and the usual chaos of 24 rookie drivers racing each other.
