24 le MANS Hours 2013, livre officiel

Anniversary year: 90 years! The official 24 Hours of Le Mans book in English. World famous, the 24 Hours of Le Mans race attracts competitors from France of course, but also from all over Europe, the United States, Japan but also Venezuela, China and Brazil. This is why the event is the cornerstone of the new FIA World Endurance Championship. Since 1978, the annual of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, through the same editorial team, has proposed to revive through text but above all through images the race but also its preparations and the fever that seizes the Prefecture of La Sarthe throughout the week before departure. Each car and their drivers are presented there. From the preliminary tests to the explosion of joy following the checkered flag, including the weigh-in, the pilots' parade and above all the highlights of each hour, nothing is missing. For the most passionate, a technical chapter with tables and statistics completes the set. And by calling on renowned photographers, the atmosphere which continues to evolve between late afternoon, night and sunrise in a setting different from that of a traditional circuit is perfectly restored. Since 2012, the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO) has entrusted the edition of its annual dedicated to the 24 Hours of Le Mans to E-T-A-I, the leading French publisher of Fine Books on the theme of transport.
