24 Hours of Le Mans

Les 24 Heures du Mans gets underway this weekend at the Circuit de la Sarthe, France. The race was delayed from its usual June date to give motorsport fans the chance to attend and watch 62 cars scream down the world-famous Mulsanne Straight at 330km/h. 

The 89th edition of the biggest race in endurance racing will take place on 21 - 22 August. The track is expected to remain mainly dry. There is, however, a risk of storms between 15:00 and 20:00 on Saturday. The winner will take home a black-dial stainless steel Daytona.
