McLaren makes a glorious return to the most prestigious racing stage.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 24 Hours of Le Mans is undoubtedly one of the world\u2019s most respected and feared racing venues, with 100 years of history forging legends and serving as the setting for unforgettable motorsport stories. One of the most prominent is that of McLaren\u2019s victories, when in its debut at the 1995 Le Mans race, McLaren achieved the legendary \u2018Triple Crown,\u2019 winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Monaco Grand Prix, and Indianapolis 500, all in the same season.<\/p>\n

McLaren would continue to be a force of nature at the 24 Hours of Le Mans until 1998, and 26 years later, the celebrated British name in the motorsport world has returned to the revered challenge with its GT3 EVO race cars. Based on the 750S and sharing the new McLaren supercar\u2019s design, the GT3 EVO takes after the McLaren<\/a> F1 GTR, which wasn\u2019t designed as a race car but, with McLaren\u2019s racing heritage, needed very little modification to dominate the Le Mans grid.<\/p>\n

The same goes for the GT3 EVO, which takes after the McLaren 750S\u2019s racing-derived technology and engineering to fight for victory at Le Mans. The same 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that powers the 750S powers the GT3 EVO, and the power is restricted to meet the GT3 class requirements. Three McLaren GT3 EVO cars will be racing at this year\u2019s 24 Hours of Le Mans, ending a 26-year hiatus and bringing the legendary legacy of McLaren\u2019s 24 Hours of Le Mans performance to the modern era. The race is set to take place June 15 and 16, and anticipation builds to a fever pitch as the countdown winds down.<\/p>\n
