As every year at this time most of its content is devoted to the 2013 Le Mans 24 Hours in the chronological order with which readers are familiar: scrutineering, practice, ambience, the race, analysis category by category – it’s all there! The race of every one of the 56 cars at the start is described.

Le Mans Racing also takes a look back at all the different celebrations that marked the 90th anniversary of the 24 Hours - from the election of the Cars of the Legend to the Hall of Fame and the reconstitution of the 20s décor of the Pontlieue hairpin.

Guillaume Nédélec previews the Asian Le Mans Series, the first round of which has taken place in South Korea since no. 77 came out. Read the race report in the next issue.

In a new column called the Forum we let Bruno Vandestick, the ‘Voice of Le Mans’ who has done the French commentary for the last 20 years with unparalleled panache, give free rein to his thoughts about Le Mans and endurance in general.
