What’s new at the 2026 Le Mans Classic Legend?
The Le Mans Classic organiser surprised the motoring world in 2025 with the announcement that the event would now be annual. The new format will alternate between the Le Mans Classic Legend (cars from 1976-2015) and Le Mans Classic Heritage (1923-1975).
2026 will begin the new format with the Le Mans Classic Legend
2027 will host the Le Mans Classic Heritage
Gordon Murray to attend Le Mans Classic 2026
Gordon Murray, the brilliant engineering mind behind some of motorsport’s most iconic machines, will be the distinguished Guest of Honour at this year’s event. His legacy includes unforgettable achievements — most notably the triumph of the McLaren F1 GTR at the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans. Visitors will also have the chance to see the legendary MP4/5B, the car that carried Ayrton Senna to his second Formula 1 World Championship.
A special on-track parade will showcase a selection of his most celebrated designs, including:
- Le Mans GTR
- McLaren F1
- Brabham BT42 & McLaren MP4/5B
- GMA T.33, T.50, and the extreme T.50s Niki Lauda
Experience a rare journey into Gordon Murray’s world, with several of his remarkable creations also displayed in the heart of the village.
Le Mans Classic weekend schedule (2025)
The Le Mans Classic is a motorsport festival like no other. Some fans stay for an entire week, and there is no shortage of things to do in Le Mans. It is also an easier, less hectic way to enjoy the Le Mans Museum and town itself than the 24hr race just weeks before.
