This year, thanks to our friends at Michelin, we will be attending the 82nd running of the French classic twice-round-the-clock race, the world-renowned 24 hours of Le Mans. We’re going, but you’ll get to reap the benefits of our increased media coverage. This is the single most important race on Porsche’s schedule this year, and it should be on yours as well. Porsche’s 919 Hybrid will be attacking La Sarthe circuit, zooming down to Mulsanne, flying through Indianapolis, Arnage, into the namesake Porsche curves, past Maison Blanche, the Ford Chicane, Tertre Rouge, and we’ll be following them every step of the way.
This will be the 919’s Le Mans debut, it will be a return of the 2013 champion LM GTE Pro class 991 RSRs, it will be Porsche’s first factory-effort with a legitimate shot at the overall victory since 1998 when they last won. For those reasons and more, we are excited to be able to bring you social media coverage of the event as it unfolds around us.
Let Us Know What Kind Of Things You Want Covered
We’ll be trackside, but with luck, by the end you’ll feel like you witnessed it, too. So, the question stands. What do you want to see? What parts of the circuit do you want photographs from? Do you want to hear from the drivers? Who do you want us to try to track down? Do you want to see the Porsches of the Le Mans museum?

Bring back alot of cool Porsche/Le Mans articles and souvenirs to give away in the upcoming months. Thanks!
I would like see plenty of coverage of the 991 RSR.
This is my first Le Mans that I'm really paying attention to. Having said that, lots of pictures; the sites, smells, and sounds of the race; a detailed media experience.
Really want photos of the drivers! Want to see what they look like over the course of the event. Entering and exiting cars, waiting, eating, all the things! Have a blast!
How about covering night life and all the other stuff that goes on within the Sarthe circuit while the race goes on.
How about detailed coverage of Patrick Dempsey and Pat Long's 2014 effort. Dempsey came a long way last year and I would like to get an inside look at how their race is going.
