It's not just about speed—it's about enduring and excelling under extreme conditions, showcasing the synergy between human ambition and engineering prowess.

John Roth, Cadillac's global vice president, expresses the essence of the project: “2023 was a pivotal year for Cadillac Racing, and this documentary captures all the emotion and success of the season.” The film also delves into how the LMDh hybrid propulsion technology, part of the new regulations synchronizing the IMSA and WEC, is shaping Cadillac's approach as the brand pivots towards an electrified future.

With its premiere set just weeks before the 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans, the documentary is perfectly timed to ramp up excitement for another year of racing.
