The 92nd 24 Hours of Le Mans (French: 92e 24 Heures du Mans) was an automobile endurance race for teams of three drivers each racing Prototype and Grand Touring cars held from 15 to 16 June 2024 at the Circuit de la Sarthe, near Le Mans, France. It was the 92nd edition of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's 24-hour race and the fourth round of the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship.
Ferrari won overall for the second year in succession and eleventh in total, with the Ferrari 499P Hypercar shared by Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina and Nicklas Nielsen beating the Toyota GR010 Hybrid of Kamui Kobayashi, José María López and Nyck de Vries by 14 seconds. Third place was taken by 2023 winners James Calado, Antonio Giovinazzi and Alessandro Pier Guidi in the other factory-run AF Corse Ferrari. A record number of cars, nine, finished on the lead lap.[1]
