The 84th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans warm up. The
legendary event, which will take place between days 15 and 19 of June in the Circuit
de La Sarthe already has a list of registered final, subject as it is logical to
the administrative and technical reviews of each and every one of the drivers and
car participants must overcome. Without great surprises, since the majority
of teams have confirmed their drivers, we find an edition in which
will compete 180 riders divided into 60 cars (9 in LMP1, 23 in
LMP2, 14 in GTE-Pro and 13 GTE-Am).
No news in LMP1, nine will be the prototypes that compete in the premier class. The two LMP1 hybrid that puts you in competition with every one of the manufacturers involved (Porsche, Toyota and Audi) have to add up the three LMP1 private Rebellion Racing and By Kolles. For his part, 23 will be the cars that compete in LMP2, being by far the category with more representation thanks to its formula of standard engine and chassis options are limited. As expected, Manor only competes with an Oreca 05 Nissan, Roberto Merhi will not be in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
In this way, the only English present in The Sarthe will be Antonio Garcia, which is set to compete in one of the Chevrolet Corvette C7.R officers that the us firm alongside Jan Magnussen and Ricky Taylor. This car is registered in the category GTE-Pro, where you compete a total of 14 GT among which we find the three Ferrari 488 GTE, three Porsche 911 RSRS, four Ford GT, two Aston Martin Vantage, and the two units of the Corvette. Finally, 13 will be the cars in GTE-Am, while the Box 56 is reserved to the LMP2 adapted for the pilot disabled Frédéric Sausset.
