Considered to be one of the most prestigious automobile races in the world, it is organized by the Automobile Club de l´Quest (ACO) and runs on the Circuit de la Sarthe, a circuit mixing closed public roads and tarmac that is a grueling test of endurance for car and driver. Aston Martin Racing has earned nine podiums over the last 10 years at Le Mans, including class wins in 2006, 2008, 2013 and that thrilling 2017 victory with that final lap pass. 2018 TRG - Le Mans Festival VIP Experiences - (707) 935-3999 | [email protected] LE MANS FESTIVAL 2018 THE RACERS GROUP LE MANS LEGACY In 2002, a little known privately held team from the USA - The Racers Group - entered the world famous endurance classic and defying all of the odds, team owner and driver Kevin Buckler and his teammates drove their way to a GT class victory on their very first try.

Aston Martin’s Vantage GT4 clinched three more titles in the British GT Championship finale at Silverstone, ensuring that the luxury sportscar brand’s entry-level 4-litre V8 customer GT car remains unbeaten in the UK-based series since its debut in 2019. Aston Martin Racing partner team TF Sport, and AMR Academy drivers Dan Vaughan and Jamie Caroline triumphed in the GT4 Teams’ and Drivers’ Championships with second place in class after a tough three-hour long Silverstone 500 encounter. The result – the duo’s fourth second place of the season – added to a victory at Snetterton and third place in the season-opening Oulton Park race, ensured they also finished top in the GT4 Silver Cup.

Disputé sur une distance de 114,400 km, divisé en une étape et quatre sections, le rallye comportait huit épreuves spéciales pour une distance de 36,800 km. 46 concurrents étaient initialement engagés, ils seront 42 à participer et 37 termineront classés. Une épreuve VHC, la première, était également au programme (7 engagés). F. Gobin / J-L. Fraigne ( F2.13 ) – D. Thomas / O. Delaire (FN.3 ) – C. Touvron / B. Ricou ( R.R2 ) – D. Menard / E. Riand (F2.12 ) Même s’ils partaient favoris, Sam Taveneau et Clément Point (Citroën DS3 R5) auront du s’employer pour s’imposer face à Bruno Longépé et Marie Corbineau (Renault Clio R3), ces derniers restant constamment sous la menace de Florian Cordillot et Karine Moinet qui remportaient le groupe F2000.
