The Alpine A424 will sport the three colours of the French national flag – red, white and blue – at the 94th 24 Hours of Le Mans (10-14 June 2026) and the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship season. Alpine Endurance Team unveiled the livery at a presentation of the two driver crews for the 2026 campaign.

A few days after announcing the termination of its endurance programme at the end of the coming season, Alpine Endurance Team showed off the livery of the two A424s set to race in the 2026 FIA WEC and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Dieppe-based manufacturer will proudly fly the national flag for its Hypercar swansong by complementing the traditional Alpine blue with white and red trim.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Along with the paint scheme, Alpine Endurance Team also revealed the driver line-ups for the forthcoming campaign.&nbsp;Ant&oacute;nio Felix Da Costa, Charles Milesi&nbsp;and&nbsp;Ferdinand Habsburg&nbsp;will share the wheel of the #35 A424, while the #36 will be driven by&nbsp;Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Makowiecki, Jules Gounon&nbsp;and&nbsp;Victor Martins.

The unique Le Mans vibe lasts longer than 24 hours. It descends on the circuit well before the start at 4 pm on Saturday. For race fans, the fun begins a week before the race, when the excitement sets in.

Trackside entertainment picks up the pace on Wednesday and Thursday when the track action begins in earnest.

Plenty to see and do throughout midweek

This year&rsquo;s midweek programme includes track events, support races, free practice sessions,&nbsp;qualifying and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole, not to mention the buzzing race villages and fan zones.

Wednesday and Thursday are the ideal days to explore the circuit at your own pace. Spectators can wander around the villages and fan zones and take in a demonstration or two, admire the cars on display and generally soak up the light-hearted yet adrenaline-charged atmosphere.

Several support races provide plenty of interesting action on both days. Head for the Karting Fan Zone bank to watch the Ferrari Challenge competitors negotiate the Porsche Curves, mix with other dedicated fans, test your talent on the simulators, and enjoy the Racing Avenue paddock and the 24H Inside area.

Road to Le Mans will be back as usual, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans will be hosting the Porsche Carrera Cup Brasil for the first time. The Tertre Rouge fan zone is a great place to enjoy the racing. It has a direct view of the track between the Goodyear footbridge and the Forest Esses. In between rounds there is a laser game, big air, mountaineering wall and zip line to try.

For spectators, the various practice and qualifying sessions and the Hyperpole are opportunities to try different vantage points: grandstands, fan zones and banks.

There&rsquo;s plenty to do and see throughout the day, and when night falls, head to the Concert fan zone to enjoy the live music.

Two very different concerts 
Concert Fan Zone from 20:00 
 
Wednesday 10 June &ndash; Jean-Louis Aubert

Following on from his hugely successful PAFINITOUR &ndash; over 60 sold-out concerts in France, Switzerland and Belgium &ndash; Jean-Louis Aubert has added a series of festival dates this summer.&nbsp;

Aubert&rsquo;s rich and varied repertoire includes many inter-generational favourites and a few lesser-known gems. His latest album, PAFINI, released in September 2024 is a musical voyage where poetically precise lyrics meet resolutely modern compositions. &nbsp;

This philosophy is evident on stage where Aubert&rsquo;s scenography is both current and spectacular. Over the years, the musician&rsquo;s generosity has created a scenic presence that conquers hearts and minds.&nbsp;

Thursday 11 June &ndash; The Libertines

English rock band formed in 1997, The Libertines&rsquo; frontmen Pete Doherty and Carl Bar&acirc;t and their musicians influenced a whole generation with albums Up the Bracket and The Libertines. The group&rsquo;s raw, untamed, romantic spirit captured a cult following.

Their chaotic, energetic live performances are delivered with unrestrained emotion, the urgency of their anthems creating a communion with audiences far and wide. Expect an electric atmosphere on stage in preparation for the big race.

Ready to rock? Then book one of the last few Wednesday/Thursday practice and qualifying tickets now to enjoy grandstand viewing, spectator zones and trackside entertainment. Join us on Wednesday for a laidback experience. Smaller crowds means better views, fewer queues and more time to take in everything on offer at the circuit.&nbsp;Get into the Le Mans spirit before the race starts! 
 
Head to <a href="https://ticket.24h-lemans.com/content">https://ticket.24h-lemans.com/</a>&nbsp;for tickets, from just &euro;23!&nbsp;

TF Sport has unveiled the liveries of the team's two Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs destined for the LMGT3 category in the FIA World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC) and 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Ahead of the 2026&nbsp;FIA WEC season and&nbsp;94th&nbsp;24 Hours&nbsp;(10-14 June), TF Sport has released images of the&nbsp;#33 and #34 Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs&#39; new looks of&nbsp;yellow, black and red.

The #33&nbsp;Corvette Z06 GT3.R shared by&nbsp;Ben Keating, Jonny Edgar and&nbsp;Nicky Catsburg sports a bright yellow livery to echo&nbsp;the design of Keating&#39;s helmet. The&nbsp;#34 fielded by&nbsp;Racing Team Turkey by TF&nbsp;entrusted to&nbsp;Peter Dempsey, Salih Yolu&ccedil; andt Charlie Eastwood is red with jagged lines running the length of the car. The livery is reminiscent of the #923 ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson from the 2023&nbsp;24 Hours also driven by&nbsp;Yolu&ccedil;.&nbsp;Both liveries were designed by Sean Bull Design like&nbsp;in previous seasons, this time to include&nbsp;metallic paint.&nbsp;

Last season, TF Sport finished fifth and&nbsp;sixth in the FIA Endurance LMGT3 Teams Championship. The #81 Corvette driven by&nbsp;Tom van Rompuy, Rui Andrade and&nbsp;Charlie Eastwood claimed the third step on the category podium at last year&#39;s running of Le&nbsp;Mans.

Check out in detail&nbsp;the liveries of the TF Sport and&nbsp;Racing Team Turkey by TF Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs in the gallery below.

The 2025-26 Asian Le Mans Series concluded with the 4 Hours of Abu Dhabi this weekend, with two invitations to the 94th 24 Hours of Le Mans (10-14 June 2026) up for grabs. Crowdstrike Racing by APR and Kessel Racing won the golden tickets to the fourth round of the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship season.

<h2>Crowdstrike Racing by APR</h2>

With its triumph in the 2025-26 Asian Le Mans Series LMP2 class, US team Crowdstrike Racing by APR is invited to join the LMP2 field at the 94th 24 Hours of Le Mans.&nbsp;George Kutz, Malthe Jakobsen and Louis Deletraz shared the wheel as the #4 Oreca 07-Gibson secured three wins and a third place. &ldquo;We got the job done that we came for, which is to win the championship and get the Le Mans entry,&rdquo; said Kutz. &ldquo;Louis and Malthe just did a fantastic job. So much credit goes to the team Crowdstrike by APR, Stew and Sam and the rest of the crew, Jeff, our engineer, just unbelievable. Today didn&#39;t go our way, but at the end of the day, what we care about is the championship, and that&#39;s what we got.&rdquo;

Crowdstrike Racing by APR previously competed in the LMP2 class at Le Mans in 2024. George Kurtz, Colin Braun and Nicky Catsburg did not finish that year.

<h2>Kessel Racing</h2>

The standard of the GT class was particularly high in this year&rsquo;s Asian Le Mans Series with Aston Martin, BMW, Corvette, Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes-AMG and Porsche all represented. Kessel Racing&rsquo;s #74 Ferrari 296 GT3 emerged victorious from the select grid and scooped an invitation to run in the LMGT3 class at the forthcoming 24 Hours of Le Mans. Drivers Dustin Scott Blattner, Chris Lulham and Dennis Marschall took the title on the back of their two victories and a third place. &ldquo;I guess we showed very good consistency at most of the rounds, and we showed good pace and this is thanks to a very good driver lineup,&rdquo; Marschall said. &ldquo;We know Chris is super-fast. We know Dustin is fast and consistent, mistake free, and Kessel as well. I think they upped their game in the last two years a lot and this is just the amount of teamwork which was put in.&rdquo;

Kessel Racing has competed at the 24 Hours of Le Mans five times. Last year, the Swiss outfit finished 40th in the overall classification, eighth in the LMGT3 standings &ndash; its best-ever result at the French endurance classic. Takeshi Kimura, Daniel Serra and Casper Stevenson shared driving duties in the #57 Ferrari 296 GT3.
