Seen in demonstration at Le Mans for the 24 Hours last August, the H24 of the MissionH24 structure will compete for the first time against other cars on the track. On the occasion of the European round Le Mans Series in the Ardennes slide, the prototype which succeeds the LMPH2G launched in 2018 will take part in the test sessions for the Michelin Le Mans Cup. It is " a real mechanical and sporting test for this young prototype which has only a few hundred kilometers of private tests, and whose first public outing took place during the 24 Hours of Le Mans last August ».

On site, it is Stéphane Richelmi, one of the three development pilots of MissionH24 with Norman Nato and Stoffel Vandoorne, who will be in charge of “ to accumulate laps which will be compared with those achieved during previous participations ". The Monegasque will refuel with hydrogen at the TotalEnergies mobile station installed for the first time in the pit lane, thus allowing refueling under the same conditions as a conventionally powered prototype ».
