2009 Le Mans Official Review - The 24 Heures du Mans is the world's most famous endurance race. Created in 1923, this historic race lasts 24 hours, during which drivers travel over 5000 km, at speeds of over 300kph. With competitors from France, Great Britain, Japan, Italy, US and Russia creating a strong field, Le Mans has grown into one of the world's premier motor sport events. After dominating the 24 Heures du Mans since 1999, Audi faced the most serious challenge to its crown yet. Against relentless opposition from Peugeot, Audi won the 76th running of the 24 Heures du Mans 2008 securing the LMP1 (Le Mans Prototype) category. The LMP2 category was won by the Porsche RS Spyders which finished first and second on their first visit to Le Mans. Aston Martin's DBR9 successfully defended its GT1 (Grand Touring) title and Ferrari took revenge in the GT2 class securing 1-2-3-4 positions. The race was enjoyed at the famous Le Mans Circuit by an enthusiastic crowd of over 250,000 fans, and was broadcast to many more in countries around the globe.

2008
The enthusiastic group of over 258,000 fans who made the trek this year to the Circuit de la Sarthe in northwestern France for the 76th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans were rewarded for their perseverance in putting up with some appalling weather conditions by seeing exciting racing, renewed rivalries, first-time and record-breaking victories, and the dominance of the diesel engine cars. The world’s greatest endurance race had those elements, and much more, and this official review captures all of the highlights.
For this year, it was another battle for the podium between the diesel powered entries from Audi and Peugeot. Unlike last year’s battle of attrition, where both teams were left with one car each at the finish, the full squads of both marques made it to the Sunday afternoon finish, with a familiar result. The No. 2 Audi R10, piloted by Rinaldo Capello, Allan McNish and Tom Kristensen gave Audi their 8th victory in 9 attempts.
The win for Kristensen was his 8th personal victory, and sets a new Le Mans record. The Peugeot teams, who led most of the first part of the race, took second and third. The six diesel cars of Audi and Peugeot took the top six places, pushing the always quick Pescarolo Sport team down to seventh place and denying the them a fourth straight podium finish.
In the LM P2 class, the Porsche Spyders from the teams of Van Merksteijn Motorsport and Team Essex made the most of their first trips to Le Mans with a 1-2 finish. It was another battle between the Aston Martins and the Corvettes for honors in the LM GT1 class, with the Aston Martin DBR9 successfully defending its title as David Brabham and Darren Turner were once again at the wheel, along with teammate Antonio Garcia. The LM G2 group was a Ferrari show all the way, taking the first 4 places, with the Risi Competizione team from the USA in the top spot.
As always, there’s additional coverage of the test day and final qualifying, plus all of the color and pageantry leading up to the race, driver interviews, and better than ever on-board views so you can experience all of the excitement of the 2008 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
