French edition.
The 88th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans will remain, whatever happens in the future, the first since 1923 to have been held behind closed doors and to have started at 2.30 pm.
In addition to numerous other changes in form: disappearance of the test day, weighing in the city center and events in the municipalities around the prefecture of Sarthe, deprived of the Friday parade.
The Automobile Club de l'Ouest has reorganized its program in terms of pre-race tests and ceremonies. Despite these changes, the event took place with fifty-nine cars at the start.
A race that consecrated Toyota for the third consecutive year, which permanently retains the trophy that the team had in custody since June 2018.
A consecration shared by Sébastien Buemi and Kazuki Nakajima, who enter the very restricted circle of triple winners of the event.
The five days of the competition are summarized and brilliantly illustrated in this book, the 43rd in a series that began in 1978.
There is also a hint of the future with the new regulations of the Hypercar category, the ACO-IMSA convergence and the promises of a hydrogen electric prototype with a very promising future.
