The 78th running of the
greatest endurance race in the world will take place on the big 13,629-km
circuit, which also uses part of the Bugatti layout (built in 1966), and a
section of the main Le Mans-Tours road closed to traffic for the event.
On this layout, the record for the greatest distance covered in the race is
held by David Brabham, Marc Gené and Alexander Wurz, the 2009 winners; they
covered 382 laps, a distance of 5.206,278 kms at an average speed of 216,664
km/h. 2010 will be the last year for the current LM P prototypes and grand
touring cars (LM GT), as a new set of technical regulations will come into
force in 2011. Every year, the Le Mans 24 Hours attracts a big crowd, 234
800 spectators in 2009, for example. Topping the 2010 bill is the revenge
match between Audi and Peugeot so there is every likelihood this figure will
be exceeded.
