In addition to Audi and Toyota, this challenge was taken up by Porsche as the German manufacturer returned to the blue riband category in the 82nd Le Mans 24 Hours.
The official yearbook of the Le Mans 24 Hours 2014 tells the story in detail of all the stages of the race. It presents each car and its drivers and describes the unfolding of an event thats unique in the world starting with scrutineering followed by official practice and the Drivers parade. It underlines the main incidents in each hour of the race before the explosion of joy of the drivers taking the chequered flag.
