The 24 hour.
24 hour endurance car race
There are many reasons the Le Mans race is famous. One of the oldest car races in endurance racing history, the race began in 1923 and is held annually each year.
It was held in circuit de la sarthe and the first race was at 1933
There are approximately 50 competitors in each race.
dont now
a 24-hour race.
Le Mans is famous for hoisting the 24-hour car endurance race and the 24-hour motorcycle race. It is also famous for its rillettes (a recipe of pork pâté)
there are two well-known 24-Hour races in Le Mans, one for motorcycles and another for cars.
There is no real equivalent. The closest match would be "Formule 1" (formula One races). Otherwise you have a famous 24hrs endurance race called "Les 24 heures du Mans" (Le Mans 24hrs, Le Mans being the city hosting the race).
Be ready by June 2009....for endurance race ;-) 13-14 June
