Yellow is designated for GTLM and GTD classes. White are Prototype/DPi classes. It dates back to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Different colored lights are critical because drivers will flash them when they want to make a pass. In the instance of the Prototypes/DPis they can run upwards of 20mph faster in the straights. As a GTLM car seeing white headlights in your mirror you know they are going to be faster and may be coming on at a greater rate of speed than a competitive GTLM or GTD car with yellow lights in your mirror.

Another fact to know which cars are GTLM vs GTD; pro class cars (GTLM) feature red number backgrounds, windshield banners, mirrors, leader lights, and wing end plates while the pro-am class cars (GTD that features a pro driver and amateur driver) use the color green.
Thankfully you saved the day with some awesome info. Cuz that video told me nothing! Haha

The M8 GTE looks and sounds bad ass tho! Excited to see how she does!
