Qualifying is over and preparations are underway for this year’s Le Mans 24 Hours race, which is set to feature 62 cars split across the Hypercar, LMP2, LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am categories.

Toyota secures the front row after Hyperpole qualifying on Thursday and there was one late change to the entry list, as Nyck De Vries came in to replace the crash-prone Philippe Cimadomo in the TDS Racing LMP2 team. Now the waiting starts for the flag to drop and start the 90th edition of the race at 3pm BST on Saturday.

Among the entrants is the youngest in the history of the race: 16-year-old Josh Pierson, who will be competing in a 27-car LMP2 category with drivers who include rally champion Sebastien Ogier and former F1 faces Esteban Gutierrez and Robert Kubica.

A sizeable 23-car line-up will see Ferrari, Porsche, and Aston Martin battle for glory in the GTE Am category, while Chevrolet joins the melee in GTE Pro.

The fight for overall victory will once again see Toyota tackle Glickenhaus and Alpine in the Hypercar category, ahead of an influx of contenders in 2023.

Scroll down for full details of each car and driver line-up in this year’s race.
