June 15, 2018 will mark the 24th edition of the Drivers' Parade, a key figure in the world of automotive endurance. For the occasion, the organizer Classic Automotive approached the association and racing team So24!, chaired by Dominique Payen, who strives to field drivers from Sarthoise in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

 

 

 

This year, two giant screens will allow spectators to follow the entire Parade thanks to a TV production which will film the entire route, as well as the preparation of the pilots. One of the screens will be located on Avenue Rostov sur le Don and the second on Avenue François Mitterand.

Another major new feature is that the start of the Parade has been brought forward to 17 p.m., 30 minutes earlier than before, which will allow drivers to finish earlier before the start of the race the next day.

Finally, the Pilots Parade will benefit from a mascot for the first time, which will be revealed very soon. It will be an owl, in reference to the 24 Hours cars, which during the night, are as clever as owls and their big eyes.

To follow all the news from the Pilots Parade, go to their new Grand Site website.
