The 24h Racing is the most daring challenge that racing drivers can tackle. Le Mans and the 24h Nürburgring are the most famous endurance races. Le Mans is the oldest motorsport event with a very interesting, somewhat dramatic history.
Since 1923, the 24h Race has been held near the French city of Le Mans. It is one of the most prestigious automobile races in the world and is called the “Grand Prix of Endurance and Efficiency.” It is not for nothing that the circuit at the traditional 24-hour race at the Nürburgring is called the Green Hell! From our point of view, the Green Hell is the most dangerous race track.
In the cut version, the Nürburgring is the venue for Formula 1 and other racing series. The full version of the track also includes the Nordschleife. It leads to many climbs, dead corners and a lack of drainage. Such features were so dangerous for each race series that Sir Jackie Stewart called the track Green Hell in 1960.
In this topic, you will learn interesting facts from the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Green Hell. Also, you will find up-to-date information about the schedule and the most highlight moments of the past and present!
