<p>#9 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Jonas Ried / Maceo Capietto / Reshad de Gerus</p>

<p>Iron Lynx and&nbsp;Proton Competition&nbsp;are joint entering this ORECA entrusted to Jonas Ried (son of&nbsp;Proton Competition owner Christian Ried)/Maceo Capietto/Reshad de Gerus. The car was forced to retire at the 2024 24 Hours. It is currently participating in the European Le Mans Series. Having previously represented IDEC SPORT Racing, Cool Racing and Duqueine Team, de Gerus&#39;&nbsp;experience in LMP2 at&nbsp;Le Mans will help catapult this&nbsp;ORECA&nbsp;to the front of the field.</p>

<h2>Proton Competition</h2>

<p>#11 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Giorgio Roda / Rene Binder / Bent Viscaal (LMP2 Pro/am)</p>

<p>Proton Competition is entered in all three categories at this year&#39;s&nbsp;24 Hours: Hypercar with a&nbsp;Porsche 963, LMP2 with this ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson and&nbsp;LMGT3 with two&nbsp;Ford Mustangs. The ORECA is shared by&nbsp;Giorgio Roda (a team member since&nbsp;2018), Rene Binder (a former&nbsp;driver for DKR Engineering, Duqeine Team, Algarve Pro Racing, Inter Europol Competition and&nbsp;Panis Barthez Competition) and&nbsp;Bent Viscaal who drove the #9 in 2024. The #11 ORECA is competing in LMP2 Pro/Am in the European Le Mans Series, finishing 11th overall and fourth in its category at the&nbsp;4 Hours of&nbsp;Barcelona. Look for this crew to claim&nbsp;a&nbsp;step&nbsp;on the LMP2 Pro/Am podium.</p>

<h2>RLR M Sport</h2>

<p>#16 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Michael Jensen / Ryan Cullen / Patrick Pilet (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>This British team&#39;s&nbsp;last appearance in the 24 Hours dates back to&nbsp;2019, but returning this year in&nbsp;the LMP2 Pro/Am category.

Competing in the&nbsp;European Le Mans Series, IDEC&nbsp;kicked off the season with the #18 ORECA finishing second at the&nbsp;4 Hours of&nbsp;Barcelone before taking the top spot at the&nbsp;4 Hours of Le&nbsp;Castellet. For the 93rd 24 Hours, the team has recruited&nbsp;three-time Le Mans winner Andr&eacute; Lotterer who will also go on to&nbsp;represent Genesis in Hypercar. The #18 ORECA is considered a major contender for victory in&nbsp;LMP2.</p>

<p>#22 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Renger van der Zande / Pietro Fittipaldi / David Heinemeier Hansson<br />
#23 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Daniel Schneider / Oliver Jarvis / Benjamin Hanley (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>United Autosports is a bona fide&nbsp;LMP2 leader.

<p>#24 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Naveen Rao / Cem Bolukbasi / Colin Braun (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>Algarve Pro Racing&#39;s #25 ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson earned its&nbsp;invitation to the 24 Hours&nbsp;after securing&nbsp;the 2024-2025&nbsp;Asian Le Mans Series title.&nbsp;The car will be driven by Th&eacute;o Pourchaire (previous F2&nbsp;champion, reserve&nbsp;Peugeot TotalEnergies driver and&nbsp;24 Hours rookie)/Matthias Kaiser/Lorenzo Fluxa. The&nbsp;trio is aiming for the top step on the podium in LMP2 with the #25 and in LMP2 Pro/Am with the&nbsp;#45 entrusted to&nbsp;George Kurtz/Nicky Catsburg/Alexander Quinn.</p>

<h2>TDS Racing</h2>

<p>#29 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Rodrigo Sales / Mathias Beche / Cl&eacute;ment Novalak (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>TDS Racing is one of the most experienced teams in&nbsp;LMP2&nbsp;having competed in the category since&nbsp;2012, scoring second place in 2014 and third in&nbsp;2019. This year, TDS is taking part in LMP2 Pro/Am with a top notch driver line-up of&nbsp;Mathias Beche (10&nbsp;participations)/Rodrigo Sales (four)/Cl&eacute;ment Novalak (with&nbsp;Inter Europol Competition in 2024). Count on the #29 ORECA to fight for victory in&nbsp;LMP2 Pro/Am.</p>

<h2>Inter Europol Competition</h2>

<p>#34 &ndash; ORECA 07-Gibson&nbsp;&ndash; Nick Boulle / Jean-Baptiste Simmenauer / Luca Ghiotto (LMP2 Pro/Am)<br />
#43 &ndash; ORECA 07-Gibson &ndash; Jakub Smiechowski / Tom Dillmann / Nick Yelloly</p>

<p>After tasting victory in&nbsp;LMP2 in 2023 and clinching second place in 2024, Inter Europol Competition is back with big ambitions for LMP2 and LMP2&nbsp;Pro/Am. The #43 is shared by Jakub Smiechowski/Tom Dillmann (the team&#39;s driver in the&nbsp;IMSA and&nbsp;European Le Mans Series)/Nick Yelloly (new recruit and factory Acura driver). The #34 in&nbsp;LMP2 Pro/Am is driven by&nbsp;Nick Boulle (Truman trophy winner in the&nbsp;IMSA)/Luca Ghiotto (team veteran)/Jean-Baptiste Simmenauer.</p>

<h2>CLX Pure Rxcing</h2>

<p>#37 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Aliaksandr Malykhin / Tom Blomqvist / Tristan Vautier</p>

<p>This French team based in Annecy (Haute-Savoie) has four&nbsp;participations in the&nbsp;24 Hours under its belt and is competing in the European Le Mans Series, finishing fifth at the 4 Hours of&nbsp;Barcelona before being forced to retire at the&nbsp;4 Hours of Le&nbsp;Castellet. CLX Pure Rxcing is led by&nbsp;former&nbsp;Alpine&nbsp;Hypercar driver Nicolas Lapierre. Aliaksandr Malykin won the FIA Endurance LMGT3 Teams trophy last season with&nbsp;Manthey Pure Rxcing. He only began&nbsp;racing an&nbsp;LMP2 this past winter&nbsp;in the 2024-2025 Asian Le Mans Series and will surely benefit from the experience of&nbsp;Tom Blomqvist (three&nbsp;participations) and&nbsp;Tristan Vautier (one).</p>

<h2>VDS Panis Racing</h2>

<p>#48 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; Oliver Gray / Esteban Masson / Franck Perera</p>

<p>Also over the winter, Olivier Panis&#39; team launched a collaboration with&nbsp;Marc VDS. The Belgian outfit is already competing in the&nbsp;Moto2 World Championship, Superbike World Championship&nbsp;and GT.&nbsp;This new partnership will provide&nbsp;Panis Racing with additional resources to improve its competitive level. TDS Racing is responsible for technical support. VDS Panis Racing is taking part in the&nbsp;European Le Mans Series in which the #48 ORECA finished third at the 4 Hours of Barcelona&nbsp;and 12th at the&nbsp;4 Hours of Le&nbsp;Castellet. Alpine Endurance Team&nbsp;Hypercar driver Charles Milesi is replaced by&nbsp;Franck Perera.</p>

<h2>AF Corse</h2>

<p>#183 &ndash; ORECA 07-Gibson &ndash; Fran&ccedil;ois Perrodo / Matthieu Vaxivi&egrave;re / Ant&oacute;nio F&eacute;lix da Costa (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>This team is the defending LMP2 Pro/Am champion at the 24 Hours. This ORECA is driven by&nbsp;Fran&ccedil;ois Perrodo, an extremely fast&nbsp;amateur driver and the 2025 Spirit of Le Mans winner. At the beginning of the season, the car became the first in the LMP2 Pro/Am category to win a&nbsp;European Le Mans Series race, the 4 Hours of Barcelona, in the overall&nbsp;classification. This&nbsp;year, Perrodo is teaming up with&nbsp;former Alpine Hypercar driver Matthieu Vaxivi&egrave;re and&nbsp;official Porsche driver Ant&oacute;nio F&eacute;lix da Costa. Naturally, the trio is seeking a repeat performance of&nbsp;2024.</p>

<h2>AO by TF</h2>

<p>#199 &ndash; ORECA&nbsp;07-Gibson &ndash; PJ Hyett / Dane Cameron / Louis Del&eacute;traz (LMP2 Pro/Am)</p>

<p>The American outfit and its dragon &quot;Spike&quot; are back at the&nbsp;24 Hours for a third&nbsp;participation, teaming again with TF Sport for technical&nbsp;support. Last year, Louis Del&eacute;traz placed the car in&nbsp;pole position in the&nbsp;LMP2 category before finishing second in LMP2&nbsp;Pro/Am, then went on to win the European Le Mans Series, earning an invitation to the&nbsp;93rd 24 Hours. AO Racing owner/driver PJ Hyett has once again called upon Del&eacute;traz to lead the charge, joined by former Porsche Penske Motorsport&nbsp;Hypercar driver&nbsp;Dane Cameron.</p>

2025 24 Hours of Le Mans – Presentation of the LMP2 category

Less than a week before the 24 Hours of Le Mans track action begins on Test Day, the city is ready to welcome the stars of the show: the cars. On Saturday 7 June from 3 p.m., 19 racing cars representing all three classes on the grid take to the streets for an exceptional city-centre procession.

<p>Organised by the ACO and Le Mans city council for the third year running, the procession is a nod to the past, when 24 Hours of Le Mans competitors would drive to the circuit in their racing cars. This year the procession will complete two laps of the 2.1-kilometer circular route taking in the city&rsquo;s best-known streets: tunnel Wilbur Wright, quai Louis Blanc, rue Gambetta, place de la R&eacute;publique, boulevard Ren&eacute; Levasseur, and avenue Fran&ccedil;ois Mitterrand.</p>

<p><u><strong>A spectator-friendly route</strong></u></p>

<p>This year, there are three excellent main vantage points &ndash; quai Louis Blanc, place de la R&eacute;publique and place du Jet d&rsquo;Eau (at the foot of the cathedral) &ndash; with entertainment and live commentary.</p>

<p>Free and open to all, the popular event is a taster of the effervescence to come during 24 Hours of Le Mans Race Week. Please note that for safety reasons pedestrians will not be able to cross the route during the procession.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Pierre Fillon, president of the Automobile Club de l&rsquo;Ouest</strong>: &ldquo;This procession has only been running three years and has already created many memories for a host of passionate people. Year after year, we do our utmost to offer racegoers and local people the best possible entertainment. I would like to thank St&eacute;phane Le Foll and his team for their precious support in organising what is fast becoming a highlight of the run-up to the 24 Hours of Le Mans.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
<strong>St&eacute;phane Le Foll, Mayor of Le Mans</strong>: &ldquo;The 19 Hypercars, LMP2s and LMGT3s that make up this Le Mans city centre procession symbolise the strong ties forged between the iconic race, and the Le Mans area. The 24 Hours of Le Mans is a celebration. The whole city takes on a party atmosphere. This procession, along with the Drivers Parade, demonstrates the very essence of this relationship: a meeting of passionate people and fantastic machines. When the race comes to town, we see that it belongs to all of us. It&rsquo;s part of what we are. &lsquo;Vive Le Mans!&rsquo;&rdquo;</p>

Hypercars, LMP2s and LMGT3s in Le Mans city centre

For hardcore fans, missing the 24 Hours of Le Mans is just unthinkable while, for others, attending the world’s greatest endurance race is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Choosing the best place from which to enjoy the race can turn the weekend into an unforgettable experience. Here’s a rundown of the best vantage points that offer far more than a grandstand seat.

<p>It&rsquo;s not just the Pit Straight and Dunlop Chicane that capture all the best action. Especially as <u><strong><a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/24-hours-of-le-mans-new-spectator-vantage-points-59091" target="_blank">new spectator areas</a></strong></u>&nbsp;have been developed to offer fans a new race experience. Try them out!&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Karting Area</h2>

<p>A new mound for spectators was created over the winter near the Karting des 24 Heures du Mans. This lofty position offers <strong>a splendid view of the final part of the Porsche Curves and the Karting Turn</strong>. Cars fly through this fast part of the circuit as the drivers battle against the high lateral thrust.&nbsp; See how aerodynamics come into play to keep the machines firmly on the track.</p>

<p>Fans with just a standard admission ticket can simply walk to the mound or they can hop aboard the little train.&nbsp;<br />
A Fan Zone with a big screen, food outlets and toilet facilities can be found in this area.</p>

<h2>Tertre Rouge</h2>

<p>Tertre Rouge is a key part of the circuit for drivers as it influences their entry into the Mulsanne Straight. The cars negotiate the curve at mindblowing speeds of over 180 kph. Take up a position on the outside of the turn and watch the drivers use the kerb to open up their line and gain precious seconds. If you listen carefully,&nbsp;<strong>you will hear the flat bottom of the cars rub on the kerb</strong>. A little clue for fans to identify a driver on the attack!</p>

<h2>Arnage and Indianapolis</h2>

<p>Arnage is the only turn on the circuit to have kept its original layout apart from a gravel trap for safety purposes. It is also the slowest as drivers take it at around 60&nbsp;kph. At this speed, spectators have plenty of time to admire the cars and their outline. What&rsquo;s more, they can also watch the drivers approach Indianapolis from the mound. This is a very fast right-hand turn followed by a left-hander with a slight incline.</p>

<h2>Mulsanne Corner</h2>

<p>Watch the brakes glow as the cars slow from 300 to 70 kph in no time at all. There&rsquo;s certainly little room for error. Once through the turn, the engines find their voice as the drivers step on the gas. A thrilling sound for lovers of this mechanical symphony!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Visit the Fan Zones for an all-round experience</h2>

<p>Aside the spectacular vantage points, big screens are installed in the Fan Zones at the 93rd 24 Hours of Le Mans so racegoers can keep an eye on the race while partaking in an array of activities and services that add up to make a totally enjoyable experience:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Family Fan Zone: kids and games areas, Hot Wheels and a track for budding drivers to get to grips with road safety</li>
	<li>Concert Fan Zone: live music in the evenings, a casino, a zip line and a football pitch</li>
	<li>Porte Est (East Gate) Fan Zone: relaxation, well-being and charity initiatives</li>
	<li>Tertre Rouge Fan Zone: the place for adventure with a climbing wall, big air, laser game, a treetop trail and a dancefloor</li>
	<li>Karting&nbsp;Fan Zone: Racing Avenue paddock, retrogaming, 24H Inside and simulators</li>
</ul>

<p>Check out the plan of <u><strong><a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/new-spectator-area">the spectator areas</a></strong></u>&nbsp;to make sure you are where you want to be at the 24 Hours of Le Mans! Whether you are seeking the adrenaline rush of the fast turns, the festive mood of the Fan Zones or a moment of peace and tranquillity in the relaxation area, there&rsquo;s bound to be a spot that&rsquo;s just right for you.</p>

2025 24 Hours of Le Mans – Hot spots for the ultimate race experience!

The Iron Dames are shaping up for their seventh successive appearance at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Porsche 911 GT3 R LMGT3 driven by the only all-female line-up on the grid will sport a brand new livery for the 93rd running of the French endurance classic (11-15 June 2025).

<p>Sponsored by TotalEnergies, the Iron Dames are launching the next episode of their adventure under the slogan&nbsp;<strong>Powering Your Dreams</strong>.</p>

<p>After causing a sensation in 2024 with a paint scheme inspired by local schoolchildren&rsquo;s dreams, the Iron Dames are back this year with a new decoration that carries this vision forward. The 2025 Powering Your Dreams design is as symbolic and it is eye-catching. Each line and each colour reflect the values underpinning the team&rsquo;s mindset:&nbsp;<strong>passion, determination, discipline, commitment and energy</strong>.<br />
The result is an ode to daring the impossible and a visual incarnation of a dream coming true.</p>

<p>The crew of the Porsche 911 GT3 R LMGT3 is perfectly in tune with this message.&nbsp;Porsche has recently promoted <strong>Michelle Gatting</strong>&nbsp;to become a contracted driver. She brings speed, consistency and unerring concentration.&nbsp;<strong>Rahel Frey</strong>&nbsp;is a GT veteran. She boasts two decades of motorsport experience, including seven 24 Hours of Le Mans starts.&nbsp;<strong>C&eacute;lia Martin</strong>,&nbsp;on the other hand, is a Le Mans rookie who has quickly climbed the GT ranks. Together, they form a trio ready to challenge the best and aim for a historic performance in the highly competitive LMGT3 class.</p>

<p>The Iron Dames hope to bring fans and communities onboard this initiative via a store in the Race Village that will stock the Powering Your Dreams lifestyle collection, interactive experiences, surprises for fans, content and stories highlighting true accounts of ambition, resilience and success.</p>

<p>Michelle Gatting:<em><strong> We are racing with the team [Manthey Racing] that dominated 24h of Le Mans last year. Obviously we know the task won&rsquo;t be easy, it never is, and therefore we have to be extra strong, work extra hard to achieve a good result.</strong></em></p>

<p>C&eacute;lia Martin: <strong><em>We&rsquo;re sending a message that goes beyond racing: ambition, inclusion, and determination. We&rsquo;re proving that motorsport can be a force for change, empowering the next generation to chase their dreams, on and off track. And I am proud to share this adventure with my two experienced teammates Michelle and Rahel.</em></strong></p>

<p>The Iron Dames currently lie in 16th place in the chase for the FIA Endurance Trophy for LMGT3 Teams.&nbsp;<br />
