24h Le Mans
The administrative checks and Scrutineering will take place on 9-10 June in downtown Le Mans as the annual launch of race week at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Here's a practical guide to help you get to the event.
From Sunday 9 June at 09:30 to Monday 10 June at 18:00, the Place de la République in downtown Le Mans will host the traditional Scrutineering event. The cars will be inspected to ensure compliance with FIA World Endurance Championship regulations. It's also the perfect opportunity for fans to get extremely close to their favorite drivers and cars. Every year, spectators flood downtown to enjoy the festive atmosphere at the Place de la République. Don't miss these two days of incomparable fun!
Given the popularity of Scrutineering, we recommend you take Le Mans Métropole public transportation: Tramway T1 line, direction Université–Antares MMArena Circuit des 24 Heures to get to the event. More info is available on the Setram website.
If you do decide to drive your own vehicle, there are nearly 3,700 spaces available in underground car parks (namely République, Jacobins, Quinconces...), as well as 2,123 paid parking spaces. Some free places nearby are at your disposal (i.e. Quai Louis Blanc at the foot of the ramparts). For more info, go to the website of the operator in charge of parking at Le Mans CenoviaPark by clicking here.
