Buy 24H LE MANS 92º ÉDITION SOPHIA EDITIONS

Trumped to be even more epic than the centenary race, the 92nd edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans sold out in just 48 hours, several months before the race itself. In front of 329,000 delighted spectators (a record!) And stars such as Zinédine Zidane, who was in charge of giving the start, it would be an understatement to say that she kept all her promises!

A Dantesque spectacle thanks in particular to a leading category with twenty-three competitors opposing eight major manufacturers: Alpine, BMW, Cadillac, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Peugeot, Porsche and Toyota, all who came to the Sarthe with legitimate ambitions to compete for victory. At the end of a fierce battle in which bad weather played a role, Ferrari managed to keep its title, its second victory over the rebound with the 499P, the eleventh in its history, thanks to the trio Antonio Fuoco/Miguel Molina/Nicklas Nielsen.

But it would be an insult to other categories to reduce this event to the Hypercar class alone. United Autosports has recaptured its former glory to offer itself a second LMP2 success after that of 2020, while Porsche and its team of Manthey EMA customers have become the first winners of an LMGT3 category that has a bright future ahead of it, perfectly guided by Richard Lietz in a state of grace who has achieved another category victory on the Le Mans field.
