The "48 Hours of Le Mans Classic" Between Legend and Heritage
160,000 spectators attended the first Le Mans Classic Legend at Circuit de la Sarthe, marking the event's shift to an annual fixture split across two distinct eras.
After thirteen biennial editions, the most important European event dedicated to historic competition cars opens a new era, becoming an annual fixture built around a completely revised formula. In even-numbered years, the spotlight will fall on cars from the 1970s through to the early 2000s, as the protagonists of Le Mans Classic Legend, while in odd-numbered years the cars that built the myth of the 24 Heures in its more distant eras – from 1923 through to the 1970s – will take to the track under the name of Le Mans Classic Heritage.
The response from enthusiasts was immediate: for the first Le Mans Classic Legend, no fewer than 160,000 spectators transformed the Circuit de la Sarthe into a grand celebration of the automobile, demonstrating that the memory of motorsport has never felt more alive.
