Le Mans – a gallery from the set up!

In the next offering from Paul Foster, we take a look at the pre-race fun from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

With Scrutineering and Test Day a done deal, the 186 drivers entered in the 24 Hours are now gearing up for today’s briefing, official photo, autograph session and a new event this year: the Pit Stop Challenge for team mechanics.

Before the official free practice tomorrow at 14:00, the Automobile Club de l’Ouest has plenty in store for today. The 186 drivers entered in the 90th 24 Hours will first take part in a briefing led by race director Eduardo Freitas, then head to the track for an autograph session and the official photo.
