MOTUL AT THE LE MANS CLASSIC

30.06.2022

This weekend, the famous streets of Le Mans will reverberate to the sound of glorious engines of yesteryear. The Le Mans Classic, one of the world’s top historic motoring events, will take place on the legendary French circuit from 30 June to 3 July – and will be supported by Motul to bring fans an exceptional experience on and off the track.

Motul has been a partner with Le Mans Classic since 2014, but the relationship runs much deeper. In fact, the two French brands have a connection dating back 60 years, which has evolved from supporting the race teams on the ground to partnering several events such as the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Earlier this year, that partnership was quite literally cemented when a corner was named after Motul – the Virage du Raccordement Motul.

WHEN WAS THE LE MANS CLASSIC FOUNDED?

This year marks the 10th year of the Le Mans Classic, which was started in 2002 by Peter Auto in association with the Automobile Club de l'Ouest. The event was set up as a homage to the acclaimed 24 Hours of Le Mans, and from that first event it has grown considerably.

IS THE LE MANS CLASSIC CHILD FRIENDLY?

Not only is the Le Mans Classic a great family event, but there’s even a parade for children aged 7 to 12 that allows them to drive miniature replicas of famous 24 Hours of Le Mans racing cars. Little Big Mans even has a classic Le Mans start, as the children run over to their cars at the drop of the flag. But in this competition, everyone’s a winner.
