About

A long endurance circuit combining permanent racing sections with public roads, including the Mulsanne Straight and Porsche Curves.

History

The circuit hosted the first 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1923 on a longer route. Two chicanes were added to the Mulsanne Straight in 1990. Changes around the Porsche Curves shortened the circuit by three metres in 2018, establishing the current 13.626 km length.
