The 92nd edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is hotting up to be an instant classic, as Motorsport Week previews the must-watch race on the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship calendar. If all 23 cars in the Hypercar class alone make the start of the race, that’s the most cars racing for the […]
With 23 cars in the Hypercar class alone starting the race, it marks the most cars racing for the overall win in over a decade at the world’s top endurance race. This number doesn’t even include the 16 cars in LMP2 and 23 in LMGT3. Among the nine manufacturers in the Hypercar class, Porsche, Ferrari, and Toyota are likely the top contenders. Porsche is looking strong heading into Le Mans after winning two out of three races in this year’s FIA World Endurance Championship. Toyota secured their only win at Imola, using strategy rather than outright pace to claim victory. Ferrari, despite facing challenges with pace, strategy, and luck earlier this year, will be eager to defend their win from last year at Le Mans. Cadillac and Peugeot are also bringing their A-game, offering an exciting mix of competition at the legendary race.
