The 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans will be the 92nd running of the 24-hour race organised by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest. The LM GTE Am class of 2023 will be transitioned to LMGT3 for the 2024 race. While LMP2 cars will not be running in the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship, Automobile Club de l’Ouest will allocate a minimum of 15 grid slots to LMP2 cars for the race. A number of new and returning manufacturers are hoping to field cars in the 2024 event, including Alpine, Ford, BMW, and McLaren. LMGT3 models that do not compete for the full 2024 FIA WEC seasons are not permitted to enter at the 24 hour race.
Entries
Automatic entries
In addition to all full season WEC entries, automatic invites are given to championship winners in the European Le Mans Series (ELMS), LMP2 and LMGTE in the Asian Le Mans Series (ALMS) and Bronze Cup in GT World Challenge Europe (GTWCE) in a combined Endurance and Sprint Championship. Second-place finishers in LMP2 in the ELMS also earn an invite. 3 IMSA teams are also granted invites, one in Hypercar at the discretion of IMSA, and one each for the Jim Truman and Bob Akin awards.
Automatic entries for the 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans
In addition to the sixty-two entries given invitations for the race, seven entries are put on a reserve list to potentially replace any invitations that were not accepted or withdrawn. Reserve entries are ordered with the first reserve replacing the first withdrawal from the race, regardless of the class of either entry.
