The Classic Days go to Le Mans

The Classic Days will take place this year on July 6 and 7 on the Bugatti circuit in Le Mans (Sarthe) after having occurred in Magny-Cours (Nièvre) since 2008. This edition will honor Gérard Larrousse and Jacques Laffite. Several brands will also be in the spotlight with the 50th anniversary of Ligier, the 50th anniversary of Porsche 917, Bugatti or the centenary of Bentley.

The 12th edition will welcome a total of nearly 2000 cars on the road or simply on display. No less than 8 car and one motorcycle grids have been defined, with one including F1 and prototypes, one for pre-war vehicles or one for sedans.

The organizers have planned a demonstration of the Matra Simca 670 with its V12 engine which won at Le Mans in 1974 with Gérard Larrousse and Henri Pescarolo. 45 Bugattis will take to the track to mark the brand's 110th anniversary, including the Type 64.

Tickets are available in presale at the price of €19 per day or €27 for two days (€30 and €40 on site). Tickets for children and parking will be free. More information on the official website of the event.
