Before becoming a constructor, Guy Ligier (1930-2015) was a driver who competed namely at the 24 Hours of Le Mans eight times. Here he is in this video back in 1966, for a lap of the circuit with an on-board camera.

Historique

Members have two opportunities to drive their cars on the Bugatti track in Le Mans in 2025.

<h2>A DREAM COME TRUE!</h2>

 
Track days are for classic cars, sports cars or vintage cars over 30 years old, weighing between 800 and 1,800kg, with registered number plate, and approved road-safe tyres. Track sessions at the Bugatti circuit are open pit lane. This means drivers may enter and leave the track as they wish. Up to thirty cars can be on the track at the same time.&nbsp;Coaches are on hand every day, and a track-view lodge staffed by the club&#39;s own team will provide you with all the comforts you need.

That year, for his third start at the 24 Hours, Guy Ligier was at the wheel of a Ford GT40 entered by the French subsidiary of the American manufacturer and shared with American driver Bob Grossman. In this video, he provides commentary during a lap of the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit, to the sounds of &nbsp;the huge V8 of an American icon: the Ford Mustang! Comments in French.&nbsp;
