Seven teams can make a date in their diary for 10-11 June 2023 as their invitation to the 24 Hours of Le Mans Centenary has been delivered. Let’s take a first look at the chosen few.

The conclusion of the 2022 European Le Mans Series and the Michelin Le Mans Cup has seen the first invitations issued to the 100th anniversary of the legendary French endurance race. The seven teams who already hold their entry ticket are:​

*A minimum number of entries for the season may apply.

The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship organisers will also have two tickets : John Farano in LMP2 and Ryan Hardwick en GTE Am.
