How to nail the perfect Hypercar lap at Le Mans
There's nowhere like Le Mans – let Motor Sport take you round the La Sarthe circuit that hosts the world's greatest race
The best photos from the 2016 Le Mans Test, where Audi set the headline time ahead of the twice-round-the-clock classic on June 18-19. Lucas Di Grassi claimed the bragging rights, as the #8 R18 he shares with Oliver Jarvis and Loïc Duval beat the reigning champions in the Porsche #1 of Timo Bernhard, Mark Webber and Brendon Hartley by 0.8s. The time was similar to that set at the 2015 test, set on a drying circuit 12 months ago.
Tristan Gommendy led the packed LMP2 field in the Eurasia Motorsport Oreca, with the IMSA-based Corvette C7 of Anthony Garcia, Jan Magnussen and Ricky Taylor fastest in GTE Pro. The Labre Competiton Corvette of Pierre Ragues, Jean-Phillipe Belloc, Nicky Catsburg and Yutaka Yamagishi topped GTE-Am, courtesy of the moonlighting Catsburg.
