24 Hours of Le Mans 2014 – Report and Photos

The 24 Hours of Le Mans 2014 was held 14-15 June at the 38-turn, 8.469 mile Circuit de la Sarthe in France. The 82nd edition of the 24 Heures du Mans will live long in the memory. Action in all four categories went down to the wire; racing was compelling, rivalries intense, high profile retirements caused a regular rewriting of the script. The #2 Audi Sport Team Joest of Marcel Fässler (SUI), André Lotterer (DEU) and Benoît Tréluyer (FRA) in LM P1 took overall victory, their third success in four years.

In LM P2, #38 Jota Sport triumphed narrowly defeating nearest rival #46 Thiriet by TDS Racing, #51 AF Corse, comprising Giancarlo Fisichella in its driver line-up, took GTE Pro ahead of #73 Corvette Racing while #95 Aston Martin Racing won GTE Am.
