Messages

On November 19, 2009, the Automobile Club de l'Ouest published its automatic starting list for the 2010 Le Mans 24-hour race. This list was determined from the first and second of the four Le Mans classes in the previous year's race, the American Le Mans Series , the Le Mans Series , the Asian Le Mans Series , the FIA GT Championship and the winners of the Petit Le Mans on Road Atlanta . The winner of the Michelin Green X Challenge also received an automatic message. 29 teams were invited, 21 accepted and planned to take part in the race.

Including these 29 vehicles, the ACO registered 85 reports. On February 4th, the ACO announced the 55 starters for the race. For the first time in the history of the 24-hour race, the teams had to register at least one driver per team as a fixed vehicle. The other pilots per team had to be announced to the organizer by May 12th at the latest.

The teams

LMP1

On February 5, Audi announced the nine drivers who drove the revised Audi R15 TDI at Le Mans. The Le Mans record winner Tom Kristensen formed a team with Allan McNish and Rinaldo Capello . The second car was driven by Timo Bernhard and Romain Dumas , who had already driven the diesel prototype last year . You were joined by Mike Rockenfeller , who in 2009 had formed a team with Lucas Luhr and Alexandre Prémat . The third vehicle was filled with new signings: André Lotterer , seventh overall for Colin Kolles in the Audi R10 TDI in 2009 , formed a driver team with Marcel Fässler from Switzerland and Benoît Tréluyer from France . Tréluyer drove a Peugeot 908 HDi FAP for Henri Pescarolo's team in 2009 and had a serious accident that night, which he survived unharmed.

On February 22nd, Peugeot also announced the remaining drivers and at the same time ended speculation about whether the multiple world rally champion Sébastien Loeb would start again at Le Mans. The task was to replace David Brabham , who was engaged in last year's winning car and drove an Acura ARX-01 in the LMP2 class for Highcroft Racing . Since Loeb did not have enough free test time to get used to the Peugeot 908, it was not used. Instead undertook Peugeot former Honda -Testfahrer and Super Aguri - Formula 1 driver Anthony Davidson . The second team was changed, where to Franck Montagny and Stéphane Sarrazin now Nicolas Minassian came into the car. Sébastien Bourdais , who sat in this car last year, now formed a team with Pedro Lamy and Simon Pagenaud , who were new to the team. Christian Klien was the substitute driver .

Reserve vehicles

As in previous years, the ACO published the list of reserve vehicles with the start list. In 2010 there was an innovation. Five teams each were put on the list as LMP or GT vehicles and would replace those teams that could not take part in the race for various reasons. The LMP reservists are only allowed to replace vehicles of the LMP1 and LMP2 classes. The same procedure applied to the GT cars. The advancement took place in the order of nomination.
