For us, the Le Mans Classic is the best meeting on the historic motorsport calendar. To witness such a diverse range of competition cars return to the Circuit de La Sarthe and race in anger through the day and night is a real privilege. And with a bumper grid of no fewer than 44 Group C machines, a demonstration of modern endurance legends such as the McLaren F1 and the Aston Martin DBR9, and a special race comprising 70 Porsches to celebrate the Stuttgart marque’s 70th anniversary, the 2018 edition promises to be the historic event of 2018. We’ll be reporting live from Le Mans throughout the weekend, both in the Magazine and on our Instagram channel.
