This year’s city centre procession on Saturday 6 June is going to be bigger and better than ever. Now in its fourth year, the procession organised by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest in conjunction with Le Mans city council has a revised route. The new route offers 12 vantage points for spectators and more chances to see the magnificent cars, which will complete three laps instead of two.

<p>Nineteen of the 62 cars entered for the 94th 24 Hours Of Le Mans &mdash; Hypercar, LMP2s and LMGT3s &mdash; will parade through the streets of Le Mans at 3 p.m., accompanied by safety cars, a vintage car and a trophy car &mdash; some 30 vehicles in all.</p>

<h2>The RACe COMES TO TOWN</h2>

<p>Spectators will be able to admire the race cars in the hour-long procession and enjoy the accompanying festivities. The route is dotted with special viewing areas, each with a commentator. Screens on Quai Louis Blanc and Place de l&rsquo;Eperon will relay images. The procession will leave from avenue Paderborn, under orders from ACO Race Control. After three laps of the route, they will return to a parc ferm&eacute; set up on Place des Jacobins before being transported to the circuit.</p>

<p>As in previous years, it will not be possible to cross the road during the procession.</p>

<h2>A fine-tuned set-up and a tribute to volunteers</h2>

<p>More than 130 safety officers will line the route: <strong>65 race marshals, 48 other volunteers and 21 security staff</strong>. Add to these <strong>28 first responders</strong> and 6 emergency vehicles. After the procession, a tribute to the volunteers that make the event possible will take place on Place du Jet d&rsquo;Eau. The ceremony will include awards, a group photo and words of thanks from the ACO President and the major of Le Mans to the people who contribute to the 24 Hours of Le Mans beyond the circuit.</p>

A new route, 12 vantage points, three laps: the city centre procession shifts up a gear

The 94th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans (10-14 June 2026) will sport a new, improved Hyperpole set-up. Thanks to the new format, the chase for pole position promises even more suspense and intensity. The aim is simple – to make every lap count and the qualifying sessions even more exciting to watch.

<p>Introduced in 2020, the 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole quickly became a highlight of the pre-race sessions. In a short space of time, drivers and cars are pushed to their limits. This year sees a revised format, with two separate qualifying rounds and <strong>more cars in the final</strong>. The proceedings will be simpler to grasp, and no less thrilling.</p>

<h2>A more intense 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole</h2>

<p>Since it was introduced, Hyperpole has produced some of the most emblematic images of Le Mans race week: a driver face to face with the clock, a car heading full pelt into the sunset, and spectators impatient to see who clinches pole position.<strong> The 2026 version will be even more intense</strong>.</p>

<p>The outcome remains to determine the position on the 24 Hours of Le Mans starting grid. However, the structure is changing to give more competitors a chance to take part in the Hyperpole session.</p>

<p>The 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole will begin with <strong>two distinct qualifying (Q) sessions</strong>:</p>

<ul>
	<li>One for LMP2 and LMGT3 cars;</li>
	<li>One for Hypercars;</li>
	<li>
	<p>Each session lasts at least 30 minutes.</p>
	</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>The fastest 15 cars in each class earn a place in Hyperpole 1.</strong> That means three more LMP2 and LMGT3 cars now qualify for Hyperpole.</p>

<h2>Hyperpole 1 and 2: building excitement</h2>

<p>Hyperpole consists of two stages.</p>

<p><strong>Hyperpole 1 (H1) for the 15 fastest cars in each class</strong> &ndash; one session for Hypercars, and another for the other two classes. The two 20-minute sessions will produce a ranking.<br />
Cars ranked 11 to 15 will take the corresponding place on the grid.</p>

<p><strong>The top 10 go through to Hyperpole 2 (H2).</strong> Again, there will be two sessions, one for Hypercars and another for LMP2s and LMGT3s. Each session lasts 15 minutes. This means two more cars in each class will be able to compete for pole position compared to previous years. More competitors, <strong>a more uncertain outcome</strong> and more opportunity to make history.</p>

<h2>An important change for LMP2 crews</h2>

<p>Another major update concerns LMP2 driver crews.</p>

<p>From now on, during qualifying (Q) sessions, only the driver with the lowest FIA rating may take the wheel. The principle is already applied in LMGT3 where the bronze-rated driver must qualify the car is extended to LMP2.</p>

<p>The rule is in line with the fundamentals of endurance racing:<strong> at Le Mans, performance is a team effort</strong>. As such, every crew member has a turn in the limelight.</p>

<p>Another notable adjustment: in LMGT3, the rule stipulating that only a Silver driver can take the wheel in Hyperpole has been removed. This change gives teams <strong>more freedom in the distribution of roles</strong>.</p>

<p>Thanks to the new format, the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole is shaping up to be <strong>an even more spectacular prelude to the race</strong>.</p>

<p>More cars on track, <strong>more suspense</strong>. More gasping in unison with the people around you, whom you&rsquo;ve never met before. That&rsquo;s a typical Le Mans moment, and we have a week full of them lined up.</p>

The new, improved 24 Hours of Le Mans Hyperpole

In the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Jacky Ickx plays a starring role. But now is not the time for reminiscence. The six-time Le Mans winner recently took the wheel of the Genesis Magma Racing Genesis GMR-001 Hypercar at Circuit Paul Ricard.

<p>Few people share <a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/track-record/driver/jacky-ickx-6508" target="_parent"><strong>Jacky Ickx</strong></a>&rsquo;s experience of the 24 Hours of Le Mans He has tamed those dark nights, with their endless silences, and rekindled dampened spirits at dawn. As six-time winner, he features in the race annals. Not all motorsport moments make history. But some are momentous. This was one of them.</p>

<p>Presented with the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/fr/actualites/genesis-devoile-son-hypercar-la-gmr-001-59192" target="_blank"><u><strong>Genesis GMR-001 Hypercar</strong></u></a> complete with special livery &mdash; dark blue with a white stripe, like his helmet design &mdash; Jacky Ickx encountered the invisible bond that unites generations of endurance racing.</p>

<p>In the garage, time stood still. Man meets machine. A modern Hypercar, honed for performance, exuding character and soul. His name written on the side <strong>a link between what was and what is already becoming.</strong></p>

<h2>A DIALOGUE BETWEEN past AND future</h2>

<p>The highlight was what came next. Jacky Ickx settled himself in the cockpit of the Genesis GMR-001 Hypercar for <strong>a few laps</strong> of Circuit Paul Ricard. A Le Mans legend at the wheel of a modern-day Hypercar: you need to pinch yourself! And yet the moment was typical of endurance racing.</p>

<p>Le Mans never stands still. This race lasts 24 hours, a lifetime, and beyond. Year after year, the relay baton is passed on from one generation to the next.</p>

<p>Jacky Ickx wasn&rsquo;t just driving a car. He was interacting with an era. Dancing with the discipline whose legacy he helped build. Encountering the future that&rsquo;s almost here, and never forgets how far it has come.</p>

<p>Emotion is timeless. <em><strong>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s indescribable. When the door opened I wasn&rsquo;t expecting anything of the sort,&rdquo; </strong></em>said the Belgian.<em><strong> I was extremely touched to see the Genesis Magma Racing Hypercar in dark blue with a white stripe. But the most important thing is to live in the present. To share the passion for motor racing with others, to share the human aspect &ndash; it was one of the most important moments I&rsquo;ve ever known. This team gave me something unique. You dream... and sometimes dreams come true. But I can tell you now, I won&rsquo;t be taking part in the race next year!&rdquo;</strong></em></p>

<p>With only two weeks to go before the <strong>94th 24 Hours of Le Mans (10&ndash;14 June 2026)</strong>, the encounter between Jacky Ickx and the Genesis GMR-001 Hypercar is a reminder of why this race continues to send pulses racing. It&rsquo;s because memory isn&rsquo;t a museum. It&rsquo;s an energy. And sometimes it sits in the driving seat again.</p>

	After his accident last June Anthony Davidson spoke of the metal difficulty of getting back behind the wheel again after a long break.</h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	After a misunderstanding with a slower competitor, Anthony Davidson&nbsp;was the victim of a spectacular accident during the 24 Hours of Le Mans (<a href="http://www.lemans.org/wpphpFichiers/1/1/ressources/Image/actualites/2013/24-heures-du-mans/01/2013-01-16-toyota.html" onclick="window.open(this.href, '', 'resizable=no,status=no,location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,fullscreen=no,scrollbars=no,dependent=no,width=670,height=380'); return false;">video here</a>). With two broken vertebrae, the British driver was forced to rest for many months and only very recently received the green light from doctors to take the wheel of the Chevrolet Coyote he will drive in the 24 Hours of Daytona (26-27 January) with St&eacute;phane Sarrazin, Nicolas Minassian, Pedro Lamy and Enzo Potolicchio. The Toyota works driver describes his return to the track.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<em><strong>Anthony Davidson:</strong> &quot;It was great to get back behind the wheel of a racing car after so much talking about it... To get back behind the wheel again in a racing car anywhere around the world was great, let alone Daytona, it&#39;s a fantastic race,&nbsp;they are great cars to drive, very challenging. But seven months away from driving is tough for anyone but to come back after an injury like that - after breaking your back, it is mentally quite difficult to deal with as well.&quot;</em></p>
