The 92nd 24 Hours of Le Mans (French: link=no|92<sup>e</sup> 24 Heures du Mans) was an automobile endurance race for teams of three drivers each racing Prototype and Grand Touring cars held from 15 to 16 June 2024 at the Circuit de la Sarthe, near Le Mans, France. It was the 92nd edition of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's 24-hour race and the fourth round of the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship.

Ferrari won overall for the second year in succession and eleventh in total, with the Ferrari 499P Hypercar shared by Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina and Nicklas Nielsen beating the Toyota GR010 Hybrid of Kamui Kobayashi, José María López and Nyck de Vries by 14 seconds. Third place was taken by 2023 winners James Calado, Antonio Giovinazzi and Alessandro Pier Guidi in the other factory-run AF Corse Ferrari. A record number of cars, nine, finished on the lead lap.[1]

United Autosports emerged victorious in Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2) for the second time, with Bijoy Garg, Oliver Jarvis and Nolan Siegel driving a Gibson-powered Oreca 07. The first edition of LMGT3 was won by Manthey EMA's Richard Lietz, Morris Schuring and Yasser Shahin in a Porsche 911 GT3 R (992). The race was affected by heavy rain and fog, with a four-hour safety car intervention in the early morning owing to the weather.[1]

Background

The 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans was the 92nd running of the 24-hour race organised by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest. The LM GTE Am class of 2023 was transitioned to LMGT3 for the 2024 race. While LMP2 cars did not run in the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship, Automobile Club de l'Ouest allocated a minimum of 15 grid slots to LMP2 cars for the race.[2] A number of new and returning manufacturers hoped to field cars in the 2024 event, including Alpine, Ford, BMW, and McLaren.[3] [4] [5] [6] LMGT3 models that did not compete for the full 2024 FIA WEC seasons were not permitted to enter at the 24 hour race.[7]

Entries

Automatic entries

In addition to all full season WEC entries, automatic invites were given to championship winners in the European Le Mans Series (ELMS), LMP2 and LMGTE in the Asian Le Mans Series (ALMS) and Bronze Cup in GT World Challenge Europe (GTWCE) in a combined Endurance and Sprint Championship. Second-place finishers in LMP2 in the ELMS also earned an invite. Three IMSA teams were also granted invites, one in Hypercar at the discretion of IMSA, and one each for the Jim Trueman and Bob Akin awards.[8]

Qualifying

Divided into two sessions, an initial one-hour qualifying session decided the race's starting order, except for the fastest eight vehicles in each class, who qualified for a half-hour shootout, "Hyperpole," which determined pole position in all three classes. Every Hypercar started upfront, regardless of lap time, followed by LMP2 and LMGT3. The eight qualifying Hyperpole cars were ordered by fastest Hyperpole-session lap time first, followed by the other non-qualifying class vehicles by fastest lap time set during the first qualifying session.[31]
