From 6 to 8 October, Circuit Paul Ricard hosted Les 2 Tours d’Horloge, the world’s only 24-hour race for historic vehicles.
The programme featured a wide range of historic vehicle categories: on Les 2 Tours d’Horloge grid alone, 5 different categories were represented!
The race started on Saturday at 4 p.m. under the orders of starter Romain Dumas, multiple winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Fans even got up close to the cars during the Grid Walk, just before the start of the big race!
After 24 hours of racing, the Côtes du Rhône Racing Team took the win!
But that’s not all: the weekend also featured 5 support grids racing throughout. The BOSS GP grid, making its first appearance at Les 2 Tours d’Horloge, was the fastest on site, joined by an array of single-seaters including the Toro Rosso STR1!
Off track, visitors could enjoy the exhibitors’ village in the heart of the paddock, with displays such as The Originals Renault collection and its 7 iconic cars! The 1974 Renault Alpine A441 and the 1965 Alpine M65 even put on a show on track before the start! Finally, an exhibition dedicated to Steve McQueen and his passion for endurance was staged at the Steve McQueen Eyewear stand, delighting nostalgic spectators.
