But the world’s most important endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, will host its 94th edition this weekend at the Circuit de la Sarthe in France. Sixty-two cars across three categories will be in action on the circuit’s more than 13 kilometers, spanning an entire day of competition. The event will also serve as the third round of the World Endurance Championship, the WEC.
Ferrari is aiming to keep its winning streak in the race. The manufacturer saw AF Corse’s car triumph in 2025, while the two cars of the official works team came out on top in 2023 and 2024. The squad, however, is expected to face strong competition from outfits such as Toyota, which won five races between 2018 and 2022, and BMW, which claimed the last round of the championship at Spa.
The schedule for the race will open this Wednesday, with two free practice sessions interleaved with the first phase of qualifying, which will determine the 15 qualifiers for Hyperpole. On Thursday there will be two more free sessions, one before and one after the pole positions are decided. With no track action on Friday, the cars return to the track on Saturday for the race.
The fans who want to follow the race will have TV and streaming options. BandSports will broadcast the event with time windows, while YouTube will stream the entire race starting at 11:00 a.m.
